Scientific paper

We propose to observe the sky background H Ly alpha emission in parallel with scheduled observations to study the emission generated by local ISM hydrogen penetrating into the solar system. This component can be observed when the earth orbital motion Doppler-shifts the geocoronal line from the LISM vector. By defin ing the velocity vector of the interstellar wind (ISW) in the solar system we may identify which of several local clouds in the LISM encompasses the solar system. By a careful measurement of the ISW line shape we may study the temperature of the LISM and interaction of the ISW with the heliospheric bow shock and solar wind. This proposal is solely for parallel observing time.
