Abstract

Abstract The main environmental difficulties related to HEP experimentation on satellites and balloons are described. We review ways how to face these difficulties, analyzing some paradigmatic examples of present and future experiments. Furthermore, the main features of detectors operating outside the terrestrial atmosphere are reported, concentrating in particular on energy and momentum measurements and on particle identification.
