Projects

CASSIOPE/e-POP Mission

Launched in 2013, the e-POP payload on the CASSIOPE satellite has been collecting data from low-earth orbit to help scientists study the impact of solar storms on space weather, including auroras, low-energy particle trajectories, radio wave propagation, GPS signals, satellite drag, and more. The data has also been used to locate and track space debris using both optical sensors and plasma wave sensors. The data are openly available from https://epop.phys.ucalgary.ca.
