SpaceX Launches Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP)
Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) will help researchers better understand the boundary of the heliosphere, a magnetic barrier surrounding our solar system. This region is where the constant flow of particles from our Sun, called the solar wind, collides with winds from other stars. This collision limits the amount of harmful cosmic radiation entering the heliosphere. IMAP will collect and map neutral particles that make it through, as well as investigate the fundamental processes of how particles are accelerated in space, from its vantage point orbiting the Sun at the Lagrange 1 point directly between the Sun and Earth.Launch target: September 24th at 7:30:50AM EDT (11:30:50 UTC)
