The launch of BEXUS-12
CoCoRAD is the first Hungarian student team that has been selected for the BEXUS (Balloon Experiments for University Students) programme. In the frame of the CoCoRAD experiment measurements with different types of space dosimeters (some of them has been already used or will be used on board the International Space Station) will be performed.
Our webpage is dedicated to present our goals, the details and the importance of our work as well as to provide an insight into the project and the space research in general. You can find us already on the facebook and on the twitter too.
We wish you happy surfing on our webpage!

The REXUS/BEXUS programme is realised under a bilateral Agency Agreement between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Swedish National Space Board (SNSB). The Swedish share of the payload has been made available to students from other European countries through a collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA).
EuroLaunch, a cooperation between the Esrange Space Center of the Swedish Space Corporation (SSC) and the Mobile Rocket Base (MORABA) of DLR, is responsible for the campaign management and operations of the launch vehicles. Experts from ESA, SSC and DLR provide technical support to the student teams throughout the project.
