Interball
Interball ( ) is an international space project under the leadership of the Russian Space Agency and the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Participants include the Institute of Atmospheric Research of the Czech Academy of Sciences, NASA, European Space Agency, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency. The project is one of the first multi‑satellite constellations dedicated to studying interactions between the solar wind and Earth’s magnetosphere. The mission's main goal was to research how plasma behaves in important areas like Earth's magnetosphere tail and the boundary between space regions, and the solar wind that moves around it.
