The Extreme Universe Space Observatory Super Pressure Balloon 2 (EUSO-SPB2) is an approved NASA balloon mission that is planned to fly in 2023 fromWanaka, NZ with target duration of up to 100 days. It is a pathfinder for the Probe of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA), a candidate for a NASA Astrophysics probe-class mission. EUSO-SPB2 will consist of a Cherenkov telescope and a fluorescence telescope. The first is optimized for fast signals and is devoted to estimate the background sources for astrophysical neutrino observations; the second looks at the nadir to measure the fluorescence emission of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs).
The long-duration flight will provide a large number of VHECR Cherenkov signals and UHECR fluorescence tracks. In this contribution we discuss the calibration with dedicated signal of the
photodetection module.
