Abstract:
|
|
The near-Earth space environment is filled with plasma formed when the sun's ultraviolet rays electrify the upper parts of the Earth's atmosphere. This region is called the plasmasphere and its outer boundary is called the plasmapause. Here we view the plasmasphere in a static state as the observer takes a slow polar-orbiting tour of the region.
