Van Allen Probes: Mission and Discoveries Through Earth’s Inner Magnetosphere
The Van Allen Probes (formerly known as the Radiation Belt Storm Probes (RBSP)), launched on 30 August 2012 and operating for seven years, were used to study two extreme and dynamic regions of space known as the Van Allen Radiation Belts that surround Earth.
The instruments on the two Van Allen Probes spacecraft provided the measurements needed to characterize and quantify the processes that produce relativistic ions and electrons. They measured the properties of charged particles that comprise the Earth's radiation belts and the plasma waves that interact with them, the large-scale electric fields that transport them, and the magnetic field that guides them.
