Description

This dataset contains the telemetry data obtained from the different subsystems during the Strato-Science 2018 campaign of the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) which took place in Timmins, Ontario, Canada between August 6 and 26, 2018. (For more information on this campaign : http://www.asc-csa.gc.ca/fra/sciences/ballons/campagne-2018.asp.) The data was collected during the flight named NUMBUS-5/FAST. These data originate mainly from Payload Remote Interface, Sensor Suite and Mass Memory Subsystem (PRISM). This multi-purpose electronics box provides onboard Ethernet ports for payloads and offer various services to users, such as real-time localization and attitude, during the entire flight. The instrument also monitors other components onboard the gondola, the platform carrying the experiments and payloads. This instrument is an improved version of a technology initially developed by students from École de technologie supérieure, and further advanced by the CSA. Data from Power Distribution Unit and Battery are also available. This modular subsystem consists of a set of Li-ion batteries and a power distribution unit. It was developed by CSA to support payloads power requirements during STRATOS flights. STRATOS, the CSA’s stratospheric balloon program, was created in 2012 through the CSA's collaboration with France's space agency, CNES. This program gives Canadian universities and businesses the opportunity to test and validate new technologies and to perform scientific experiments at an altitude where only balloons can be operated.
