"NASA's sounding rocket program also is one of the most cost effective
ways to train future orbital science mission team members and
principle investigators, giving them hands-on space flight
experience," said Alan Stern, associate administrator for the Science
Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters, Washington. "I hope this
effort will be a catalyst for more suborbital work conducted for
space science and Earth science research."
NASA sounding rockets provide brief flights into space for payloads
that include atmospheric probes, astronomy telescopes, detectors and
other technology and science investigations. Users include
corporations, universities and a host of government agencies and
other institutions.
