Mabel Engineering Flights, 2010-2013: Flight Report
In December 2010, NASA deployed for the first time the Multiple Altimeter Beam Experimental Lidar (MABEL), an airborne simulator for Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) algorithm development. Between 2010 and 2013, engineering flights were conducted in the continental United States...
