    In addition to the WB-57 aircraft based observations, the NASA Atmospheric Perturbations around Eclipse Path (APEP) campaign will use sounding rockets to study the ionosphere during the eclipse.

    3 sounding rockets will be launched from Wallops Island, VA - 45 minutes before, during, and 45 minutes after the peak local eclipse.

    4 independent payloads will be deployed by each rocket at 107 km, which will climb to 325 km, taking msmts on the way up and down to 70 km.
