Steve, I asked Henning about a satellite that failed in orbit due to whiskers as to how they could possibly deduce that when I saw him at the CALCE meeting at UMd. He told me it was because they had similar equipment on the ground and could verify that whiskers had likely erupted.

Could it be possible they still have a back-up/alternate CAPS instrument/s in storage to physically examine for whiskers, thereby making the problem definition a bit easier.
