The Sensor Array Computing Nose Cone is an atmospheric sensor which can provide a lot of scientific data. In career mode, it is available with Advanced Science Tech, at level 8 of the technology tree.

Usage

By clicking a button in the context-menu this sensor collects lots of data. For science.

Product description

The latest in research and developement enabled the development of this little marvel, The Sensor Array Computing Nose Cone. It is outfitted with many "quality" sensors and a computer salvaged from the highest quality aircraft scrap, enabling it to collect atmospheric data while in flight.

Trivia

Prior to version 0.22 it used to be a toggleable module that provided SAS functionality. This kept planes from spinning out of control. Due to changes in the functionality of SAS, which is now built into command modules, its function as an SAS module became superfluous resulting in a redefinition as a sensor. Now again in 1.0 it has been remade into a SAS Module
