Objectives and Applications
|
WIND is a NASA/GSFC solar-terrestrial mission within the US GGS (Global Geospace Science) initiative and also part of the ISTP (International Solar-Terrestrial Physics) program. The objective is to study sources, acceleration mechanisms and propagation processes of energetic particles and the solar wind. Investigation of solar wind mass momentum and energy) with input first from the day-side double lunar swingby orbit, and later from a small halo orbit at L1. WIND, together with GEOTAIL (ISAS, J
