Abstract
The Athena/Epic sensorcraft jointly developed with NASA Langley Research Center will demonstrate a transformation in the measurement of the Fundamental Climate Data Record to understand the Earth's energy budget— a key gauge of climate health. Utilizing residual flight hardware from the Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) instruments, NASA Langley completed the design, development and test of an aggregated sensor called Athena which will measure the Top of Atmosphere Outgoing Longwave Radiation. This architecture readily incorporates future technology advances, significantly reduces full lifecycle costs, and forms the basis of demonstrating emerging technologies for measuring the Earth’s radiation fields.
