A cross-shaped sensor array, built by USU researchers headed by Prof. Charles Swenson, will be mounted on the outside of the International Space Station on Thursday by a space-walking astronaut. The purpose of the object, technically called the Floating Potential Measurement Unit, is to measure the electrical charge that builds up on the outside of the station. A charge could be dangerous to astronauts, such as compromising their spacesuits, unless it is properly discharged.
