The investigation of cosmic rays with energies in excess of 1020 eV holds the potential for discoveries in astrophysics, cosmology and/or fundamental physics. This has motivated the construction of very large ground-based experiments and has lead to the development of the first space mission to measure these cosmic rays, the Extreme Universe Space Observatory (EUSO). EUSO will use the Earth's atmosphere viewed from space as a detector of extreme energy cosmic rays (EECRs). EUSO's collecting power will exceed the present experiments by more than a factor of 10 and extend the cosmic ray spectrum beyond 1020 eV with high statistics.
