Odin is an international aeronomy and astronomy minisatellite mission led by Sweden, with Canada, France and Finland as partners. The project is carried out and funded jointly by the space agencies of Sweden (SNSA), Canada (CSA and NSERC), Finland (TEKES), and France (CNES). The Odin mission objectives are mainly astronomy and aeronomy applications, including atmospheric research: observation of stratospheric ozone chemistry, mesospheric ozone science, summer mesospheric science and coupling of atmospheric regions. Through the ESA TPM scheme, data is available from external TPM site on the Odin-SMR Project Portal. Read more
