Professors Greg Huey and Rodney Weber as well as Research Scientist David Tanner will join the NASA mission to map global distribution of atmospheric gases. The journey will start on January 28, 2017. The Georgia Tech team among other scientists will be sampling, collecting, and analyzing atmospheric gases in order to map their global distribution.
