Abstract

The 80 to 130 km altitude region is our old 'ionosphere' - the region of the atmosphere that no one seems to be interested in, and yet the critical region for shuttle entry and atmospheric braking. Comparison between the Air Force reference atmosphere and Shuttle IMU data shows large fluctuations at high latitudes. New data sources are available new, such as the Arecibo and Millstone Hill ionospheric scatter radars. (Author)<br />Proceedings of a Workshop Held in Huntsville, AL on 19-21 Nov 85.
