DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Oscar Larsson (Riken)\nThe key measurement for any e
 xperiment which aims to the observe the elusive Ultra High Energy Cosmic R
 ays (UHECR) from space is related to the UV background in Earth's atmosphe
 re and at the surface. In view of the planned missions (KLYPVE/K-EUSO\, JE
 M-EUSO) bound for the International Space Station (ISS)\, a small\, compac
 t UV telescope\, Mini-EUSO\, with the aim to the study the UV night emissi
 ons from the Earth\, is currently being developed by the JEM-EUSO Internat
 ional Collaboration. The Mini-EUSO detector will be placed at the UV trans
 parent\, nadir looking window of the Russian Zvezda module of the ISS. The
  Mini-EUSO mission has been approved by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and
 \, under the name "UV atmosphere"\, also by the Russian Space Agency Rosco
 smos.  Scientific\, technical and programmatic aspects of this project wil
 l be presented.\n\nhttps://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/event/23/contribution
