COSMIC (the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate) is a joint project between U.S. and Taiwan region of China. The scientific foundation of COSMIC is based on radio occultation (limb sounding) technique for the earth atmosphere and geoscientific objects. The COSMIC constellation is currently planned to be launched in 2005. The components, functions and scientific purposes of COSMIC system, including the LEO satellites, ground data reception and spacecraft control stations, data analysis centers and the data communications networks, are reviewed. As conclusions, some possible research projects related to COSMIC are listed in the final part.
