Scientific paper

A long term program for the research of the aurora and the interaction of the solar wind plasma with the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere is discussed. The Freja satellite is part of that program. Among several other experiments, the Freja satellite carries two UV sensitive cameras which will make images of the aurora. The cameras contain special types of UV image intensifiers. The satellite was launched on 5 Oct. 1992 and first images have already been received.
