WAVE A Mission

• Atlas IIAS: 19 May

• Validated aircraft ops at PAFB- two aircraft support- associated instruments

• Determined range support process- path to ER approval- required MSR documentation- deadlines

• Lessons learned- figure 8 difficult to manage- takeoff at L - 2.5- define ROCC rep function- launch slip management

WAVE-A Flight: Figure-8 holding pattern

Plume intercepts

• Pass 4 (T+18 min)

• 12.6 km

• CO2 at 10 Hz (oversampled)

• JPL H2O at 0.8 Hz

• Will add particles and CLH H2O

Comparison of waterInstruments

• CU particulate water at 2 Hz (arbitrary units)

• JLH at 0.8 Hz (ppm)

• No enhancements observed, consistent with low RH
