WEATHER
PROBE (under
construction)
The
probe consists of 4 sensors mounted together and
fixed to the end of a linear actuator boom.
The boom is mounted on the
underside of the raised platform and the boom
extends out 18” from the platform to minimize the effects of lander
structure
on the
sensors.
The
sensors consist of a 3 cup anemometer, a hot wire
type wind direction sensor, a platinum RTD temperature sensor, and a
Honeywell solid state humidity sensor.
For
