LABORATORY FOR ATMOSPHERIC AND SPACE PHYSICS, UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO - BOULDER

LASP will build two instruments for the AIM mission, the Cloud Imaging and Particle Size (CIPS) instrument and the Cosmic Dust Experiment (CDE). LASP also designs and builds the Instrument Payload Interface (IPI). LASP will manage the AIM mission and will control the satellite after launch. LASP scientists will contribute to the analysis of data from all AIM instruments and will compare AIM observations of polar mesospheric clouds to model calculations and to prior and concurrent measurements from other instruments.
