Solar System Missions Division SOHO - our eye on the Sun

Solar System Missions Division 10 Years of SOHO > 2500 refereed papers by > 2300 scientists > 140 Ph.D. theses > 1000 comets > 2,000,000 command blocks sent to the spacecraft > 100,000,000 exposures MDI > 16 TB in SOHO archive > 85 TB of data served > 275,000,000 web page requests served

Solar System Missions Division SOHO’s Future Current mission extension until 12/2009 Joint programs with HINODE and STEREO 08/2008: Launch of “next-generation SOHO”: SDO 2009: cross-calibration of MDI/EIT with SDO > 2010: reduced automated mission (Bonus/Bogart mission) (coronagraphs, TSI,…)

ESA Support to Hinode ESA, in sub-contractual collaboration with the Norwegian Space Centre, provides one additional downlink contact to Solar-B for each of the 15 orbits per day This support considerably improves the overall scientific data return and the cadence of observations from the Solar-B mission The European scientific community is catered with processed data through a dedicated Solar B data centre at the University of Oslo MoU with JAXA two European members on the Hinode SWT were appointed this spring.

Solar System Missions Division Reasons: Possibility to track all 15 orbits per day Antenna redundancy, and also strong Norwegian interest in the mission. Svalbard Ground Station for Hinode

Solar System Missions Division Aurora at Earth Jupiter Saturn

Solar System Missions Division Mars plasma environment ASPERA Characterisation of the planetary wind composition (atomic & molecular O + ) away from the solar wind. Solar wind scavenging of the atmosphere down to 270 km altitude, representing a major mechanism in neutral atmospheric degassing and past climate change. Planetary heavy ions accelerated up to very high energies. For the first time, ”radiation” of fast atoms is observed at Mars. Current escape rate of Martian atmosphere (solar minimum). Solar wind Planetary wind ≈100 ton/day Planetary wind (O + )

ESA - EOP Living Planet 3-satellite mission to study core dynamics and geodynamo processes, crustal magnetisation, and ocean circulation from low Earth orbit. Ionosphere-magnetosphere current systems and magnetic forcing of the upper atmosphere need to be derived and taken care of - “one man’s noise is another man’s data” Selected by Earth Obs. Program Board for Launch in 2009 (now 2010) Electric Field Instrument (Ion Drift Meter) provided by CSA in collaboration with ESA Science Programme For optimisation of GEOSPACE science capabilities an additional electron instrument “Conducto-meter” was discussed - but not achieved Science operation and data products will be organised and shared between D/EOP and D/SCI (Definition process soon to be initiated) ILWS Future Missions - SWARM

Solar System Missions Division PROBA - 2 ESA Technology Demonstrator Project for On-Board Autonomy within ESA D/TEC Successor of PROBA1 (launched in 2001, dedicated to Earth observation) ESA mission with Belgium as lead funder (through GSTP) Prime contractor: Verhaert Design & Devl. (Belgium) Schedule: development and launch 2008 into an LEO Sun-synchronous orbit Following a proposal to the ESA NLM programme the Proba-2 science operation has been «adopted« for a 2 year mission duration by the May 2006 SPC meeting - at a cost of 2.8 Meuro for ESA.

Solar System Missions Division ESA’s Cosmic Vision, Themes: 1.What are the conditions for life and planetary formation? 2.How does the Solar System work? From the Sun to the edge of the Solar System (including the “hierarchy of scales” in plasma-physical processes) Gaseous Giants and their Moons The Building Blocks of the Solar System: Asteroids and Small Bodies 3.What are the fundamental laws of the Universe? 4.How did the Universe originate and what is it made of?

Solar System Missions Division ESA’s Cosmic Vision, Call issued in March 2007, Input due June Outlook from received Letters of Intent: In total 9 proposals in realm of ILWS expected (all M Class) 5 Solar missions already listed in Solar TG report 2 Magnetospheric 1 “IT” mission in margin of IT TG interest 1 Heliospheric missions (with long time frame) Downselection into 6 out of 64 expected proposals in 2007 Downselection into 2 flight opportunities - 1 M & 1 L Class after 2 years of competitive study in 2009/2010 Followed be AO for new slice of CV “programme”. (formally there will be no programmatic approach…)
