Older versions of the CFC flew on the 2022 NASA High Altitude Student Payload (HASP) mission.
Different but modern versions were flown by UMBC's AirHARP mission on the NASA ER-2 high altitude plane.
Most recently, we flew a preliminary technology demonstration mission on OreSat0.5 launched August 16th, 2024.
