Our objective is to study the amounts of Our objective is to study the amounts of UV radiation in the upper stratosphere. UV radiation in the upper stratosphere.

We believe that we will find an increased We believe that we will find an increased amount of UV radiation as compared to amount of UV radiation as compared to previous years’ data.previous years’ data.

We are doing this because we think that it We are doing this because we think that it would be fascinating to see the difference would be fascinating to see the difference in UV radiation with the solar flare that in UV radiation with the solar flare that has occuredhas occured

Mission OverviewMission Overview

We will complete our mission by using a We will complete our mission by using a light to frequency converter in conjunction light to frequency converter in conjunction with an Arduino microcontroller that will with an Arduino microcontroller that will allow the payload to take data points on allow the payload to take data points on the amount of UVA radiation present in the amount of UVA radiation present in the atmosphere.the atmosphere.
