JACEE-11 and JACEE-12 were two flights in a series of long duration
flights. JACEE-11 was launched mid-December 1993
and after a succesful circumpolar exposure failed to terminate and crashed
through the ice only one quarter mile offshore of Ross Island
(see illustration). Attempts were
made to dredge for the gondola, but did not succeed. It is possible that
useful data will still be obtainable if we can recover this payload next year.
JACEE-12 was launched and recovered in early January 1994.
It is currently being analyzed.
