DIANE experiment successfully completed
The DIANE experiment run by the team of students from the Technical University of Dresden is successfully launched on board the REXUS 21 rocket. The team tested a seven-metre-long, rod-shaped antenna intended to unfold in microgravity during the flight. The dynamic flight behaviour of the antenna was observed with a camera. The antenna also sent a signal that amateur radio enthusiasts in northern Europe should have been able to receive. Next, the students will evaluate the data acquired during the experiment.
