2013, with substantial funding for the next 5 years, and following a positive
outcome of a mid term evaluation the funding will be extended for another 5
years. BCSS consists of the space
physics groups at UB, Norwegian University of Science and Technolgy (NTNU) and
the University Centre at Svalbard (UNIS) and is lead by UB. BCSS is organized
in two instrument groups, one Education and Public Outreach group, and four
research groups, which will address the following scientific questions:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial;

We have designed and built payloads and instruments for balloons, rockets and
satellites, and were heavily involved in instruments flying on Polar, INTEGRAL
and SIR-2. This activity is now organized in the space instrumentation group of
BCSS at UB. Currently we are building a large X- and gamma-ray detector for
ASIM, which will be flown on the International Space Station in 2017. We are
also building smaller X- and gamma-ray detectors that will fly on balloons
