The instrument payload is different for every campaign and is optimized for the respective topic and goals. This means after the removal of the current payload, the SouthTRAC instrument groups get a well-deserved break to recover from several months of intensive work. Data processing and data analysis are the upcoming tasks for the next months.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1071\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1071\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1071\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_172316308.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_172316308.jpg 4160w, https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_172316308-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_172316308-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_172316308-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1071\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Home sweet home: HALO is back in the hangar in Oberfaffenhofen.

Despite the technical issues preventing further measurements at the end of the campaign, everything worked out very well and smoothly most of the time. This includes the instruments\u2019 performance and all the logistics and organizational tasks. SouthTRAC would not have been possible without the effort and support of all participants including the local partners in South America.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1074\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1074\" style=\"width: 585px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1074 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_173015855-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_173015855-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_173015855-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pa.op.dlr.de\/southtrac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/11\/IMG_20191127_173015855-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1074\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The crew did even bring a souvenir from Argentina that fits well on the nose boom.
