Abstract
Observing Cusp High-altitude Reconnection and Electrodynamics (OCHRE) is a student/early career researcher (ECR) focused sounding rocket that will fly as a compliment to the TRACERS satellites. OCHRE will utilize the deep institutional knowledge of the TRACERS science team to educate and mentor a team of graduate students and ECRs to serve as instrument leads, project manager, and primary investigator. Aiming for a near conjunction with, and at an apogee above, TRACERS in the northern polar cusp, OCHRE will answer some remaining questions from the TRICE-II sounding rockets using TRACERS to contextualize observations in the larger-scale polar cusp dynamics.
