#DYK it was a hypothesis from @NASA Test Pilot Einar Enevoldson that launched the Perlan Project and a new field of research? In 1992 Einar, Perlan’s founder, began collecting evidence of stratospheric mountain waves> https://t.co/wsAeTEqKYF

Guess what we 👀?
It was the earliest sudden stratospheric warming recorded so far in the Southern Hemisphere.
Get ALL the details from this historic flight in 2019 on #AirbusPerlanMission II > https://t.co/AbRt0KOGWy

It will make blood boil.
Did you know that the Perlan 2 glider has soared above the Armstrong limit? At or above the limit, unprotected human blood will boil without a pressure capsule like Perlan 2.

It was great for our #science data, but not so great for soaring in #stratospheric waves. What was this rare atmospheric event we encountered on #AirbusPerlanMission II?
Check out this insider’s view into Sudden Stratospheric Warming> https://t.co/wbszBUMD5P
How is it possible for Perlan 2 to soar to such incredible altitudes on #AirbusPerlanMission II?
🌬️It takes a global team and weather phenomena – stratospheric mountain waves.

Did you know jet streams are important to the Perlan Project?
The polar night jet forms in the winter hemisphere around the polar vortex, helping Perlan 2 soar. Check out this fascinating video about jet streams> https://t.co/PScmvRZzrq

Could Perlan 2 soar on other planets?
The conditions on Earth at 90,000 feet are similar to the conditions on the ground on Mars. More>

What are polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs)? How do they affect ozone?
#PerlanExplorer find out> https://t.co/SdQpxE39Qi
Perlan Project is named after PSCs. 📹from 2019 #AirbusPerlanMission II flight with rare PSCs above horizon.

When Perlan soars to record-setting altitudes, through which layers of Earth’s atmosphere does the sailplane fly? What are the differences between these layers?

The wing design on the Perlan 2 #glider is based mainly the viscosity of the air & the speed of the #aircraft. So, our wings are different than an airliner’s at the same altitude because airliners want to fly much faster than we do. #PerlanExplorer

How does the #stratosphere affect #weather in the troposphere? Might understanding this help us avoid turbulence or other unfavorable conditions? Well, that's something we're exploring as part of the Perlan Project. Find out more in #PerlanExplorer > https://t.co/uaxKvu2RpU
One exceptional benefit of the #ozone layer in the stratosphere is that it can absorb certain UV radiation bands without normally breaking down. Michael Batalia, Ph.D. explains more about ozone in this latest #PerlanExplorer feature => https://t.co/kB0RR8WzSM
Approximately 400 million metric tons of ozone is made every day! The process of #ozone creation and destruction is called the Chapman cycle. Here’s a short explanation of the process from Michael Batalia, Ph.D. in our most recent #PerlanExplorer feature> https://t.co/UdLqdrfEaM
Ozone is an oxygen molecule, but thankfully as Perlan Project Team Member Michael Batalia, Ph.D. explains, “It isn’t the one we commonly breathe." More in our latest #PerlanExplorer feature => https://t.co/CDaEnMCqJ5
#Soaring #Science #AirbusPerlanMission II
#Ozone is 1 of many topics for the Perlan Project #science team. On the eve of #EarthDay 2018, our next 4 #PerlanExplorer features will explore ozone, beginning with a primer from scientific research team member Michael Batalia, Ph.D.

#PerlanExplorer: Imagine a commercial #aircraft utilizing stratospheric mountain waves to gain altitude & save fuel. The cost savings could be significant. Team members Dennis Tito & Tim Gardner are using SkySight tech to explore this potential. What are your thoughts on this?
Engage with us as a #PerlanExplorer. The Perlan Project is about more than setting world records. We aim to advance #aeronautics, #meteorological #exploration as well as inspire & #educate. Engage with us on topics every other Wednesday using the hashtag #PerlanExplorer.
