| Description | The Small Explorer Mission in intended to provide the first global visualization of Earth's inner magnetosphere. IMAP promises to greatly advance our knowledge of the global distributions and dynamics of near-Earth radiation environment by obtaining first simultaneous images of the plasmasphere at extreme ultraviolet wavelengths, of the extraterrestrial ring current and the earthward portions of the plasma sheet as seen in their emissions of neutral atoms from charge exchange of plasma hot ions with geocoronal hydrogen atoms, and of the aurora in its far-ultraviolet emissions. |
