Info

Newsletter The Airborne Science Program (ASP), in an effort to reach out to program staff and the larger airborne science community, published our first newsletter in July 2008. These four-page quarterly editions strive to feature significant recent airborne deployment activities and program accomplishments, as well as brief highlights of other ongoing and planned activities. We also include a perspective from the ASP management, schedules of upcoming program activities, events of interest to our extended community, and capabilities of our core aircraft fleet. The ASP Newsletter is distributed broadly, via email to the ASP staff, and the larger airborne science community (Airborne Science Call Letter list server), and is available on the ASP web site (http:// airbornescience.nasa.gov/) 106
