1 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:37,590 so 2 00:00:37,600 --> 00:01:22,710 one more just a little bit yeah 3 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:34,310 it's like a glue 4 00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:47,270 go ahead and breathe 5 00:01:47,280 --> 00:02:03,670 so 6 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:34,309 oh 7 00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:45,430 blue sky 8 00:02:53,270 --> 00:02:46,630 all right 9 00:02:53,280 --> 00:03:15,270 oh 10 00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:16,830 the other 11 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:54,949 um 12 00:03:54,959 --> 00:04:20,870 all right 13 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:37,590 is 14 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:42,469 right here looks good 15 00:04:47,110 --> 00:04:45,030 do a quick beta sweep pitch purpose and 16 00:04:48,070 --> 00:04:47,120 roll for the mms maneuver and then uh 17 00:04:53,590 --> 00:04:48,080 we'll climb 18 00:04:57,270 --> 00:04:55,189 b23 running out for overflight is 19 00:04:59,350 --> 00:04:57,280 fixture two five zero five approved data 20 00:05:01,430 --> 00:04:59,360 above one zero thousand 21 00:05:16,070 --> 00:05:01,440 and recycling two five two four is hot 22 00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:18,870 romeo changed to my frequency 126.5 23 00:05:29,590 --> 00:05:22,000 traffic 12 o'clock 2 miles eastbound 24 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:46,790 okay looks like everything's still there 25 00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:48,150 eight one seven roger caught over the 26 00:05:53,029 --> 00:05:49,840 attack at that one after that 27 00:05:55,430 --> 00:05:53,039 uh descending for victorville correct 28 00:06:16,550 --> 00:05:55,440 okay i want to clear off low by uh we 29 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:23,510 b 30 00:06:27,909 --> 00:06:25,909 my name is david diner i'm from jpl and 31 00:06:28,870 --> 00:06:27,919 i'm principal investigator on the air 32 00:06:31,029 --> 00:06:28,880 misbe 33 00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:31,039 airborne multi-angle spectropolar metric 34 00:06:35,189 --> 00:06:32,560 imager instrument which is flying on the 35 00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:35,199 er2 air misbe is a very specialized 36 00:06:39,670 --> 00:06:37,440 camera it flies in the nose of the er-2 37 00:06:42,309 --> 00:06:39,680 and it sits right below the fuselage 38 00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:42,319 the camera sits in a rotating drum which 39 00:06:46,469 --> 00:06:44,080 allows the camera to point to different 40 00:06:48,390 --> 00:06:46,479 angles as it looks at the earth 41 00:06:50,390 --> 00:06:48,400 and it makes measurements from 42 00:06:52,710 --> 00:06:50,400 ultraviolet wavelengths to the visible 43 00:06:54,629 --> 00:06:52,720 to the near-infrared and one of the 44 00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:54,639 special characteristics about air misbe 45 00:06:57,909 --> 00:06:55,680 also is that it measures the 46 00:06:59,749 --> 00:06:57,919 polarization of the light and we're 47 00:07:01,670 --> 00:06:59,759 looking at sunlight that comes in and 48 00:07:03,830 --> 00:07:01,680 bounces off the surface and bounces off 49 00:07:06,950 --> 00:07:03,840 airborne particles and we're using the 50 00:07:08,710 --> 00:07:06,960 measurements of the spectral information 51 00:07:11,270 --> 00:07:08,720 the angular information as well as the 52 00:07:13,189 --> 00:07:11,280 polarization to infer the properties of 53 00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:13,199 those airborne particles as part of this 54 00:07:22,160 --> 00:08:02,309 so 55 00:08:02,319 --> 00:09:32,150 um 56 00:09:36,870 --> 00:09:34,070 hi i'm rich ferrar from nasa langley i'm 57 00:09:38,949 --> 00:09:36,880 one of the flight scientists for the er2 58 00:09:40,870 --> 00:09:38,959 we've done many missions to fly above 59 00:09:43,190 --> 00:09:40,880 and looking at hurricanes as well as 60 00:09:44,949 --> 00:09:43,200 measuring uh trace gases 61 00:09:46,790 --> 00:09:44,959 atmospheric chemistry sort of like what 62 00:09:48,870 --> 00:09:46,800 they're doing here as well as aerosols 63 00:09:51,030 --> 00:09:48,880 so we've flown on many missions the 64 00:09:53,030 --> 00:09:51,040 missions can range anywhere from a few 65 00:09:54,710 --> 00:09:53,040 hours all the way up to 10 hours mission 66 00:09:56,310 --> 00:09:54,720 so today's is an eight 67 00:09:57,990 --> 00:09:56,320 hour mission which is pretty standard 68 00:10:00,070 --> 00:09:58,000 type flight 69 00:10:01,750 --> 00:10:00,080 we'll be flying up into the 70 00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:01,760 eastern u.s 71 00:10:04,630 --> 00:10:03,680 along the gulf coast 72 00:10:06,069 --> 00:10:04,640 so there's 73 00:10:07,829 --> 00:10:06,079 they can they can cover a lot of ground 74 00:10:09,829 --> 00:10:07,839 with the dc-8 that's one of the nice 75 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:09,839 benefits of it it's very long range very 76 00:10:13,670 --> 00:10:11,200 long endurance 77 00:10:16,069 --> 00:10:13,680 has a large payload obviously so it's 78 00:10:58,630 --> 00:10:16,079 really unique platform and atmospheric 79 00:11:02,470 --> 00:11:01,030 my name is jacque choudry and i'm 80 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:02,480 working with the research scanning 81 00:11:06,790 --> 00:11:04,800 polarimeter the rsp instrument 82 00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:06,800 which is a polarimeter and is currently 83 00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:09,360 flying on the er2 so this instrument has 84 00:11:13,910 --> 00:11:11,760 been flying for over a decade and on 85 00:11:15,750 --> 00:11:13,920 several aircrafts we have deployed this 86 00:11:18,069 --> 00:11:15,760 instrument to do exactly what we're
