Book excerpt: A Paiute-Tomahawk sounding rocket containing a 1.5-5.3 micrometers cryogenically cooled spectrometer was flown into a very bright (IBC III+) auroral breakup from Poker Flat, Alaska. The main emission features at 2.8, 4.3, and 5.3 micrometers were all found to be enhanced due to the large energy input to the atmosphere associated with the aurora. The most prominent enhancement occurred in the 4.3 micrometers region. (Author).
