Snow4Flow: Concept Paper for a NASA Earth Venture Suborbital-4 Investigation

Snow4Flow was proposed as a large ($30M cost cap) Earth Venture Suborbital (EVS-4) mission in April 2023 and selected as such in April 2024. It will commence pending an Investigation Confirmation Review in 2026. Its airborne and ground campaigns are presently expected to occur in March–May 2027–2029. This concept paper describes the science rationale, requirements, and plan to realize this mission.

Abstract

Snow4Flow was proposed as a large ($30M cost cap) Earth Venture Suborbital (EVS-4) mission in April 2023 and selected as such in April 2024. It will commence pending an Investigation Confirmation Review in 2026. Its airborne and ground campaigns are presently expected to occur in March–May 2027–2029. This concept paper describes the science rationale, requirements, and plan to realize this mission.
