Summary

Description
English: Origin of Plasmas in the Earth's Neighborhood 19. The OPEN Program spacecraft will combine natural orbital motion and onboard active propulsion to cover a wide range of locations. The IPL is stationed upstream of Earth to measure the approaching solar wind. During one year, the EML will obtain complete coverage of equatorial storage regions in both day and night hemispheres. The PPL will operate first high over the polar cap to study the upward flow of ionospheric plasma and the injection of energy from geospace into the atmosphere. The GTL will keep its orbit deep in the magnetospheric tail.
