The FAST Mission

<Em>The FAST Mission</em> contains detailed discussion of the design philosophy of a new breed of satellite to measure particles and fields in the magnetosphere.<br/> <em>The FAST Mission</em> is the only publicly available resource to provide complete and authoritative documentation of the FAST satellite and instruments.<br/> <em>The FAST Mission</em> contains detailed examples and descriptions of data gathered by its instruments and will thus be an invaluable source to those working with results from this new observatory.<br/> FAST's 'snapshot' data gathering approach that utilizes an onboard computer to recognize acceleration physics events and store them in the on-board "burst memory" have revolutionized our understanding of auroral microphysics. Such unique capabilities are described in full in <em>The FAST Mission.</em><br/> The information included herein is unique and not available elsewhere. The book is intended for space physics researchers as well as satellite engineers.
