Scientific paper
One of the seven experiments selected by ESA for the NASA/ESA ASSESS II (Airborne Scientific Spacelab Experiment System Simulation, II) mission is described. The objectives of this experiment include measurements of the temperature distribution in the upper solar atmosphere, IR emission and absorption in the upper atmosphere of earth, and the limit of anisotropy in sky emission. The equipment used for these measurements is discussed, and a rough ground-calibration spectrum is presented to illustrate the performance of the equipment. It is noted that about 40 interferograms of the sun, more than 100 interferograms of terrestrial atmospheric emission, and some 10 hr of data on sky-noise anisotropy have been obtained to date.
