Summary[edit]

Description
English: Pandora is a spectrometer instrument used to measure columnar amounts of trace gases in the atmosphere. These gases (O3, NO2, CH2O) absorb specific wavelengths of light from a light source in the ultraviolet-visible spectrum. This Pandora takes measurements based on light from the sun, the moon, or other light sources. The measurements are along a radial to it.
