A NASA-funded sounding rocket launches into an aurora in the early morning of March 3, 2014. The Ground-to-Rocket Electrodynamics-Electron Correlative Experiment mission, or GREECE, which launched from Poker Flat Research Range in Poker Flat, Alaska, will study classic curls in the aurora in the night sky. The GREECE instruments travel on a sounding rocket that launches for a ten-minute ride right through the heart of the aurora reaching its zenith over the native village of Venetie, Alaska. To study the curl structures, GREECE consists of two parts: ground-based imagers located in Venetie to track the aurora from the ground and the rocket to take measurements from the middle of the aurora itself.
