A radio occultation experiment measures how radio signals change as they pass through layers of the atmosphere. Those signal changes help researchers estimate temperature, pressure, density, and electron content at different altitudes. Green Launch supports this type of mission by providing suborbital payload delivery and high-altitude access for instruments designed to collect atmospheric and ionospheric data during specialized research flights.
