The Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel, or HS3, mission is a five-year project that first took to the field in 2012 from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility, Wallops Island, Va. HS3 is investigating the roles of the large-scale environment and storm-scale internal processes in hurricane formation and intensity change in the Atlantic basin. HS3 scientists will use two NASA Global Hawks during the campaign, one with instruments measuring the environment around a tropical cyclone and the other with instruments looking into the storms.

Participants in the event will hear about the 2012 mission and preparations underway at Wallops for this summer's flights. The HS3 lead scientist will explain how NASA will peer into hurricanes. And a Global Hawk pilot will discuss remote flying over tropical cyclones.
