Aurelia presented at the 2nd European Workshop on Artificial Nighttime Light Remote Sensing, held by ESA at ESRIN in Frascati from 12 to 15 October 2026. We introduced our aerial platforms, from tethered aerostats to balloon-borne payloads, and how they can be used to measure artificial nighttime light and skyglow at intermediate altitudes: collecting vertical … Read more
On 14–15 October 2026, Aurelia took part in the workshop “MAIA: Air Quality, Aerosols and Human Health from Space”, organized by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) at its headquarters in Rome. MAIA (Multi-Angle Imager for Aerosols) is a mission developed by ASI in cooperation with NASA/JPL. Using a multi-angle, multispectral, and polarimetric radiometer, it will … Read more
Inspection at Aeroporto Internazionale dell’Umbria – Perugia “San Francesco d’Assisi” to place the ClimpactSonde along the runway. Thank you very much to the airport administration and management for the availability and support! The inspection was extremely helpful to understand how to secure the ClimpactSonde to the airport signs in order to guarantee safety while collecting … Read more
The AIREMIT Stakeholders meeting took place on Friday 11 September 2026. Very interesting discussion with participants from University of Westminster, ZHAW School of Engineering, Consorzio LaMMA c/o CNR-IBE, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Technische Universität Braunschweig. Where are we in the project now: ClimpactSonde on its way to be assembled CO and NOx sensors received … Read more
ER Srls and Aurelia kicked-off today the AIREMIT project. AIREMIT – Aviation In situ measuRements of non-CO2 EMIssion Traces – was created to address the critical need to more precisely quantify the climate impact of the aviation sector, focusing in particular on non-CO₂ emissions such as nitrogen oxides, non-volatile particulate matter, and the resulting formation … Read more
Between end-July and mid-September, 2025, the Aurelia team carried out the final co-located measurement campaign in support of CNR IFAC project “”Measuring tropospheric water vapour through the Normalized Differential Spectral Attenuation (NDSA) technique”. The measurements took place at Mt. Amiata, central Tuscany, reaching an altitude of 1710 m above sea level (about 800 m above … Read more
