Spectral measurements and life science experiments using extreme radiation exposures at high altitude

  • The ASTRABAX project ("Aschaffenburg Stratospheric Balloon Experiment"), being funded for the years 2024 to 2026, is designed as a multimodal platform for the investigation of radiation exposures at high altitude. Miniature UV-VIS spectrometers observe the UV-C spectral region. The platform also contains a radiation dosimetry, a power source for on-board electronics, and common shielding setups for multiple spectral combinations. The effects of combinations of high- and low-energy rays on human cells haven´t been sufficiently investigated and described so far. Investigations under such conditions are realistic and crucial for high altitude flights in the atmosphere, for space flights as well as for comparable exposures on other objects of the solar system, and even for exoplanet habitats to some extent.
