In three hours we will leave for our third science flight. On this flight we will not meet the Oden, but rather overfly a grid along the ice edge as a calibration/validation mission to support the AMSR-E sensor (one of six sensors aboard the NASA Aqua satellite). We expect a nine hour flight.
I'll be leaving Thursday morning at 6:00 am local time to return to Boulder, but the science here will continue for one more week during which there will be two more science flights over the Oden icebreaker.

Hi Eric!
Great blog! It's really nice to read that AMISA is running well.
Greetings from Karlsruhe,
