The purpose
of this experiment is to detect and record environmental variables
inside a SubSEM module. Recording this data will provide a better
understanding of the conditions experienced by SubSEM experiments.
Studying specific environmental factors will provide a baseline for
future flights and allow for the isolation of variables.
Environment 2.0 is a derivation of the "Environment"
experiment, flown in 2001.
Many lessons were learned from the original Environment experiment that will be corrected and built upon in this experiment. Environmental data collected will include more accurate measurement of previous data such as acceleration, temperature, pressure, and magnetic field, as well as the collection of new data including infrared, ultraviolet, gamma, and beta radiation. Rocket attitude will be determined from magnetometer data. Controls will be used to subtract out noise and act as a null baseline. It is hypothesized that:
