The following information is about Electron.
Electron Defined
An elementary particle with a unit negative charge and a mass 1/1837 that of the proton. Electrons surround the positively charged nucleus and determine the chemical properties of the atom.
This definition is in context to Environmental Toxins. See more contextual defintions for Electron.
New Nano Satellite Mission To Examine Link Between Lightning And Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes
Published November 21, 2008, 3:16 pm, Science Daily
Massive energy releases occur every day in the upper reaches of Earth's atmosphere. Lightning may give rise to these bursts of radiation. However, unlike the well-known flashes of light and peals of thunder familiar to Earth-dwellers, these energy releases are channeled upward and can be detected only from space. Our atmosphere protects us from the effects of this radiation, but the mechanisms ...

NSF/NASA 'Firefly' CubeSat Mission to Study Link Between Lightning and Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes
Published November 18, 2008, 12:28 pm, SpaceRef
A new nano satellite mission, called 'Firefly,' sponsored by the NSF and led by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center will explore the relationship between lightning and these sudden bursts, called Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes.
Firefly satellite will study thunderstorms
Published November 18, 2008, 10:05 am, ZDNet
The Firefly mission is the second project under the new U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) CubeSat program. The goal of this program is to provide a low cost access to space research. Firefly will be launched in 2010 or 2011 and will try to 'solve the mystery of the most powerful natural particle accelerator in Earth's atmosphere: TGFs, or terrestrial gamma-ray flashes,' according to a NSF ...
