📡 INPROCAP in #Kiruna! Two weeks ago, we visited our partner EISCAT Scientific Association and toured the EISCAT_3D site in #Kaiseniemi 📷. EISCAT_3D is a next-generation 3D imaging #radar advancing #research on the atmosphere & near-Earth space.

今朝の EISCAT Tromsoe VHF レーダー、相変わらずバカでかい。故障していた EMCCD カメラの交換とフォーカス調整、積み戻しのためのパッキングを首尾良く終わらせることができたので、Ramfjordmoen を離れてストックホルムに移動します。トロムソライダーチームの皆さん、本当にお世話になりました。

What a beauty! We love this #RASquilt square from Rosie Johnson. It shows the @EISCATofficial Svalbard radars with a passing polar bear, under the northern lights. Rosie spent time studying at UNIS Svalbard, an island up in the arctic. @EiscatSvalbard ras.ac.uk/events-and-meeting…

A night at the @EISCATofficial antenna here in Kiruna. It's hard to tell by this photo but that dish is 32 meters wide! You sure feel tiny standing next to it in the middle of the night under a sky full of stars. 🌠
