The Experimental Astronomy and Space Physics research group at Lowell Center for Space Science and Technology (LoCSST) is led by professors Supriya Chakrabarti, Timothy Cook and Christopher Mendillo. We design, build, test, and fly instrument systems to study the Earth's ionosphere and to characterize exoplanetary systems. Our research group involves graduate and undergraduate students at every level. Click the links below to explore our current projects.
