Description

The Payload for Ultrahigh Energy Observations (PUEO), a NASA long duration balloon payload seeking to detect ultrahigh energy particles using the radio technique, flew over Antarctica for 23 days this Austral summer. This talk will discuss the performance of PUEO during the flight, covering the trigger, attitude systems, background and telemetry systems. I will also present the latest progress on calibration and discuss progress on analyzing the dataset.
