Information Regarding SGP97-LASE Images


Flight 21 / SGP97 -- Late BL Development with Flux A/C / 12 July 1997

LASE (NASA P3) Flight Track

Flight tracks are shown when LASE was available for taking data. There are many instances when LASE laser beams were blocked (i.e, in clouds, aircraft turns, other aircraft in vicinity, etc) due to laser eye safty. The track has been split into segments to enhance labeling of UT time, therefore, aerosol and water vapor images can be easily linked to the P3 LASE track.
