Description
Summary:This paper describes briefly rocket-borne electronic equipment which has been developed and utilized in the determination of ambient atmospheric pressure and temperature. In the design of the equipment, emphasis has been placed on reliability of operation, and on the ability to produce data of significant accuracy. Typical resulting curves of ambient pressure and temperature are presented.
