The Student Nitric Oxide Explorer (SNOE) is a Unex/STEDI satellite to measure variations of the NO density in the lower thermosphere (90 to 200 km) caused by solar effects. Built and operated by LASP/U Colorado-Boulder, the satellite is 120 kg and is 0.9m high, 1.0m diameter. Planned orbit is 550 x 550 x 97.5. The Pegasus drop point was 36.0N 123.0W at 11.9 km altitude. (Keith Stein reported drop at 18.5N 135W)
