The ship’s Aerographer’s Mates use radio sondes to collect meteorological data such as wind, temperature and barometric pressure, which is then used by the entire Ronald Reagan strike group. Ronald Reagan is currently underway conducting tests and evaluations in preparation for an upcoming deployment. (Photo by: Petty Officer 3rd Class Dylan McCord)
