SHIN-EN 2 was equipped with a radiation sensor which Prairie View A&M University and NASA developed.
In the signal of the telemetry line (C Line), measured data are included.
This is very important scientifically.
If you succeeded in the reception, please send us the data.
We will send something present about SHIN-EN 2 to you.
