The ERGO Energetic Ray Global Observatory is a cosmic ray observatory, made up of thousands of individual Pixels, sensitive detectors placed in classrooms all over the planet. These detectors are a small electronic enclosure containing a muon detector, a GPS receiver, crystal oscillator, timestamp generator logic board, and an ethernet interface to communicate signal events back to a central collection facility through the Internet. The Pixel unit also supports datalogger memory in case the internet is disconnected.
