Artemis201, Some more #Introduction
As a grad student, I'm helping to build the #SNIFSrocket, a #SoundingRocket payload which will study the #Sun.
A sounding rocket is a small (20 in diameter, 60 ft long) science rocket that launches, gets above the atmosphere for a few minutes to do #Science, and then comes back down.
We're hoping to study fast-moving events on the sun called #SolarSpicules, using high-energy Lyman-Alpha observations.
