Mission: Student Airborne Research Program (SARP)
The waters of Monterey Bay appeared a deep blue from two miles up during a 2010 Student Airborne Research Program (SARP) flight by NASA’s DC-8 flying science laboratory. SARP ran from June 20 to July 30 in California. The program began with lectures from university faculty members from four universities, NASA scientists, and from research program managers at the University of California, Irvine, including UCI’s Dr. Sherwood Rowland, a Nobel Laureate in chemistry and long-time user of NASA’s DC-8 airborne science laboratory for his research on atmospheric chemistry.June 29, 2010
