Objectives and Applications
Space weather observations along the Sun-Earth line from the Lagrange 1 point, including coronal white light imagery, solar X-ray irradiance, and heliospheric in situ measurements of solar wind and magnetic field. The spacecraft may also carry an instrument of opportunity. Follow-on and resilience for L1-A.
