LOGAN, Utah â The Space Dynamics Laboratory at Utah State University has been awarded a contract from NASA.
The SDL is tasked with investigating how large weather events on earth, like hurricanes or thunderstorms, create disturbances above the planetâs atmosphere.
âIt takes a lot of effort to compete at that level and be awarded an entire mission like this,â said Burt Lamborn, the project manager. âIt is a Logan, Utah centric mission that will revolutionize how scientists understand how earth weather affects that layer of space weather.â
