  2. Science Objective Our goal is to learn if IR radiation is dependent on temperature or altitude in the upper atmosphere. We are also going to study temperature as a function of altitude during ascent.

  3. Payload Design The payload consist of a HOBO which will have an IR sensor and temperature probe attached. A small digital camera will be included separate from the HOBO.

  4. Fabrication and Testing • First, the I-V converter & amplifier will need to be designed and constructed. Next, the temperature probe will be directly connected to the hobo, while the IR sensor and hobo will be connected using the IV converter & amplifier. That will complete the fabrication of the hobo system. The camera will be only need to be programmed to sample at the determined rate, before the camera system is ready for testing. The whole and individual pieces will each be tested in detail to make sure it operates properly using the methods stated in the construction plan

  5. Fabrication Test List • ·        Circuitry • o       Design the IV converter & amplifier • o       Construction the IV converter & amplifier • ·        Programming • o Program the specific rate of sample for the camera and the hobo • ·        Testing • o Test the hobo system to ensure the batteries do not fail, that the IR and temperature sensor works properly, that the rate of sample is accurate, and that the memory is sufficient for the flight. • o Test the camera system to ensure the batteries do not fail, the camera operates at the correct rate of sample, and that the memory is sufficient for the flight. • o Test the system as a whole to ensure it is properly insulated and protected from any possible damage or temperature change during the flight.

  6. Mission Operations The payload will be launched and tracked from the ground. Upon recovery the EEPROM will be downloaded and the data converted to temperatures and light intensities to determine if a correlation exists between the two.

  7. Weight Budget Item Weight HOBO + Battery 50g Temperature Probe 10g IR Sensor 10g Camera + Battery 42g I-V Converter/Amplifier 50g Total Weight 162g Leftover weight for box and insulation 838g

  8. Data Analysis Temperature and IR light intensity will be measured every ten seconds during the flight. All data will be stored on board and recovered with the payload. Software needs to be developed to convert voltages from the sensors to temperature and IR light intensity.

  9. Power Budget HOBO- 1s/10s x 20mA(max current) x 2 sensors = 4mA, 4mA x 6 hours = 24 mA/ hr Will require a 5V battery > 25mA/hr Camera- 1s/180s x 25mA = .138mA, .138mA x 6 hours = .833mA/hr Will require a AAA battery > 1mA/hr Op Amp- 1s/10s x 20mA(max current) = 2mA, 2mA x 6 hours = 12 mA/ hr Will require a 5V battery > 13mA/ hr All of batteries will be lithium batteries ordered from Energizer

  10. Master Budget Items to be PurchasedEstimated CostInfrared Sensor $200 Digital Camera $40 HOBO $120 Batteries $20 OpAmp $20 Total Estimated Cost $400
