Abstract The Material Exposure and Degradation ExperimenT MEDET has been successfully launched and retrieved with EuTEF from the Columbus External Payload Facility of the ISS (18 months, from February 2008 to September 2009). All experiments have been providing data as expected during the operations phase. MEDET is an active experiment that was exposed to the Low Earth orbit (LEO) environment. It combines seven sub-experiments. CNES has been proposed two experiments devoted to the measure of μ-particles: SODAD is a MOS type impact detector, to characterise the properties of micrometeoroids and orbital debris particles. AEROGEL is a passive detector, to capture micrometeoroid and orbital debris particles In previous papers [1–3] we have proposed in flight results inside this paper, we describe the post-flight analysis of both CNES experiments and an analysis of all MEDET surfaces exposed to impacts effects. A correlation with simulation tools is discussed
