TIGER sets endurance record Completes successful mission over Antarctica
TIGER has landed. The balloon-borne instrument built in the University's cosmic ray astrophysics laboratory completed an unprecedented second loop around the South Pole in search of the origin of cosmic rays, atomic particles that travel through the galaxy at near light speeds and shower the Earth constantly.
