1. The SOHO Spacecraft
At this point, the spacecraft then established its own "halo-like" orbit in space but continued to also orbit about the Sun in the same orbital path as the Earth. ... Finally, the instruments that analyze and measure the solar wind include ERNE (Energetic and Relativistic Nuclei and Electron experiment) and CELIAS (Charge, Element, and Isotope Analysis System) which measure the charge state and isotopic composition of ions in the solar wind. These two instruments also determine the charge and isotopic composition of energetic particles generated by the Sun. ... These magnetic fields are ass...
