The Micro-Particles Capturer (MPAC) is a passive experiment designed to evaluate the micrometeoroid and space debris environment, and to capture particle residues for later chemical analysis. It is mounted on a frame about 1 m long, which it shares with the Space Environment Exposure Device (SEED), a materials exposure experiment. In this paper we focus on (1) Visual inspection of the whole surface of MPAC&SEED, and (2) Impact feature morphology and track analysis in the MPAC silica aerogel.
