Abstract:
The
purpose of the experiment is to collect particles, especially those
of extraterrestrial origins, from the stratosphere and return them
to earth for analysis. A
900 cm2 collection plate will be coated in a silicone oil to trap
high altitude particles.
A pneumatically operated box lid will be opened and closed at high
altitude and the closed box will have a positive pressure to
minimize contamination.
Particle collected will be compared with samples from the NASA
Cosmic Dust Laboratory.
