Scientific paper

The Space Technology 5 mission consists of three microsatellites which provide the first multipoint magnetic field measurements in low Earth orbit. We study the temporal and spatial changes observed in a Pc 2 event which is observed by ST5 for five consecutive orbits in the northern hemisphere. The wave activity is observed by all three spacecraft and range in location from 55-69 degrees magnetic latitude and 10-15 hours magnetic local time. The IMF is weakly northward for this event, which also occurs during the recovery phase of a weak substorm. We are able to analyze variations in the frequency and location of the waves both on time scales of a few minutes between spacecraft and ~100 minutes between orbits.
