ST Composite With Recent Data

AFRC B200 in the N248 hangar at Moffett Field

S-MODE 04/06/23 Mission Daily Schedule

Here is the S-MODE Plan of the Day for Thursday, April 6 (all times Pacific).
 
Updates:

  • The B200 arrived at Moffett Field today at ~1530. The team is aiming for an 0800 takeoff tomorrow to log their first science flight of the campaign.
  • Weather for the remainder of the week is marginal for a B200 science flight, due to light winds and cloud cover. If the skies lift, MOSES SST data collection is a possibility, even if DopplerScatt data is poor.
