Since 1967, neutral thermospheric temperatures have been deduced from incoherent scatter radar measurements of ionospheric F region parameters. The present investigation is concerned with initial examples of the universal-time/latitude maps of exospheric temperatures from the Millstone Hill facility. The routine monthly experiments conducted consist generally of alternating elevation and azimuth scans repeated throughout the course of the experiments. The considered maps shows only a small latitudinal variation of the exospheric temperature over 36 degrees during magnetically quiet periods. During disturbed periods, large ion frictional heat effects are observed at high latitudes. The effects appear to extend even to mid-latitudes during the more energetic events.
