FORMOSAT-5 satellite
FORMOSAT (FS-5) is a remote
sensing satellite and was launched by
SpaceX at 2:51 2017/8/25 CST. FS-
5 flies in a 98.28 inclination sun-
synchronous circular orbit at 720 km
altitude in the 1030/2230 LT sectors
and has a 2-day revisiting time.
Primary payload is Remote Sensing
Instrument (RSI) conducted by
NSPO. A secondary payload,
Advanced Ionospheric Probe (AIP), is
developed by National Central
University for space weather/climate
and earthquake precursor research.

Advanced Ionospheric Probe
Ad a ced I         he c P be (AIP)
is an all-in-one thermal plasma
sensor that measures ionospheric
plasma concentrations (Ni),
velocities (Vi), and temperatures
(Ti and Te) in a time sharing way to
play Ion Trap (IT), Ion Drift Meter
(IDM), Retarding Potential           RPA/IDM/IT

AIP is capable of measuring ionospheric plasma irregularities at a sampling
rate up to 8,192 H . Electro-formed gold grids used in the AIP can reduce
hysteresis phenomenon in I-V curves and approximate ideal electrical
potential surfaces for accurate geophysical parameters.

SNIPE
SNIPE (Small scale magNetospheric and Ionospheric Plasma Experiment) is going to
be launched in        into a polar orbit at an altitude of    km with an orbital high-

The Space Physics and Aeronomy Section is united by its interest
in the Sun, the heliosphere, and the upper atmospheres and
magnetospheres of solar system planets and small bodies.
Concerns of the Ae      (SA) subsection include the Earth’s ionosphere,
thermosphere, and mesosphere, auroras and airglow, lightning, and planetary
atmospheres and ionospheres.

Researchers affiliated with the S la a d Heli he ic h ic (SH) subsection study
the solar wind, coronal heating, flares, coronal mass ejections, magnetic
reconnection, collisionless shocks, and helioseismology.

The Mag e    he ic h ic (SM) subsection’s focus is on geomagnetic storms,
magnetospheric substorms, the magnetic fields and currents of the magnetosphere,
the magnetopause, and the magnetospheres of planets and small bodies in the solar
system.
