Description
These data were collected in east-central New Mexico, USA during the first Starship orbital rocket test on 20 April 2023. The data consist of pressure records from infrasound microbarometers located on the ground and attached to solar hot air balloons drifting in the lower stratosphere. The tar file contains pressure records from the microbarometers, the trajectory of the balloons launched during the campaign, and the locations of ground sensors. This release is in support of the peer-reviewed paper "Acoustic Waves from the 20 April 2023 SpaceX Starship Rocket Explosion Traveling in the Elevated ‘AtmoSOFAR’ Channel" accepted into the journal Geophysical Journal International on 3 March 2025.
