History-Making UNH Scientific Balloon Designed by High School Students from UNH Project SMART
On Monday, July 23, 2012, high school students and their UNH mentors successfully flew and recovered a scientific payload that had been carried aloft by balloon to 105,700 feet. Onboard cameras captured images of a cloud-laden Earth against the blackness of outer space. The experiment was part of the students’ activities at Project SMART (Science and Mathematics Achievement through Research...

UNH Astrophysicists Create First Web-based Tool for Predicting Space Radiation Risks
Astrophysicists from UNH’s Space Science Center (SSC) have created the first online system for predicting and forecasting the radiation environment in near-Earth, lunar, and Martian space environments. The near real-time tool will provide critical information as preparations are made for potential future manned missions to the moon and Mars.Associate professor of physics Nathan Schwadron of the...
