Blast Off: NASA's TOMEX+ Rockets Poised for Mesopause Turbulence Breakthrough
NASA's TOMEX+ mission is ready to launch from Wallops Flight Facility, igniting three rockets to illuminate the mysteries of atmospheric turbulence at the mesopause. With cutting-edge instruments, expect glowing vapor trails and groundbreaking data to enrich weather forecasting, aviation safety, and satellite operations. This 'edge of space' exploration aims to reveal secrets 53 to 65 miles above Earth, visible across the mid-Atlantic, with live coverage by NASA.
