It contains data from the smoke particle impact detector (SPID). SPID is a Faraday cup impact probe designed to measure nanometer-sized smoke particles, called meteoric smoke particles, in the mesosphere. These are remnants of meteors ablating in the atmosphere. The instrument was part of the G-chas...
