Meteorological Measurement System (MMS)

Richard Kolyer from the MMS team is shown working pre-flight at AFRC.  MMS is a state-of-the-art instrument that can measure 3D wind, turbulence, temperature, position, velocities, attitudes, tru-airspeed and potential temperature.  These measurements enable our understanding of atmospheric dynamics, chemistry and microphysical processes.
