A junior faculty specializing in radar and lidar remote sensing of the upper atmosphere is supported with salary and with a portion of start-up funds from University resources. The new faculty position replaces slight erosion in the Space Science Faculty at Pennsylvania State University during a time when new community initiatives in the Space Weather program and with the AMISR radar require new intellectual capital. This faculty augmentation strengthens the Communication and Space Science Laboratory (CSSL) within the Electrical Engineering Department at Penn State, and solidifies the new University-wide Center For Space Science Research (CSRP). Educational and Public outreach is facilitated by the Pennsylvania State Grant Consortium that organizes outreach in the Space Sciences for grades K-12 through Graduate students. Including curriculum development consistent with the expertise of the faculty candidate, the Pennsylvania State curriculum is expanded to include training of science teachers and proposal preparation training.

一个专门从事高层大气雷达和激光雷达遥感的初级教员由大学资源提供工资和一部分启动资金。 新的教师职位取代了宾夕法尼亚州立大学空间科学系的轻微侵蚀，当时空间气象计划和AMISR雷达的新社区倡议需要新的智力资本。这一师资力量的增强加强了宾夕法尼亚州立大学电气工程系内的通信和空间科学实验室（CSSL），并巩固了新的全校空间科学研究中心（CSRP）。教育和公共宣传是由宾夕法尼亚州赠款财团，通过研究生组织在K-12年级的空间科学推广促进。包括与教师候选人的专业知识相一致的课程开发，宾夕法尼亚州立大学的课程扩展到包括科学教师的培训和提案准备培训。
