Abstract

The near space holds significant importance for environmental protection, aerospace, and national defense. To address the challenges of detecting near space at altitudes above 60 km, this paper designs a rocket-based dropsonde system, innovatively employing high-dynamic temperature sensors and wide-range ultra-low pressure sensors to build an in-situ detection system for near space. To verify the feasibility of this system, a near-space detection experiment was conducted for altitudes above 60 km. The experimental results indicate that this system can successfully detect the near-space environment above 60 km. This experiment achieved the first domestic in-situ detection of near-space within the 20-70 km range, marking a pioneering effort in the detection of the near-space environment above 60 km in China.
