1.1. MISSION BACKGROUND The scientific objective of this
magnetospheric physics mission was a detailed in vestigation of the
Aurora Borealis, or 'Northern Lights'. The fields experiments
(electric and magnetic) were constructed by the University of
California at Berke ley (UCB), and Los Angeles (UCLA) respectively.
The particles instruments were constructed by UCB and the
University of New Hampshire in collaboration with Lockheed Palo
Alto Research Laboratory. The instrument data processing unit was
provided by UCB. The spacecraft bus, telemetry, and launch services
were provided by the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center SMEX office.
The science principal investigator is Dr C. W. Carlson of UCB, and
the program is managed by the SMEX office. The UCB design
philosophy emphasizes the demonstration of design margins set by
peer review. As a result, each boom system was extensively tested
at a prototype level before the flight units were manufactured.
Additionally, the design, assembly and testing of each boom
mechanism was conducted by a single engineer solely responsible for
its success.
