Scientific paper

The several decades since the advent of space flight have witnessed the ever growing importance and relevance of the Earth's space environment for understanding the functioning of Earth within the solar system and for understanding the effects of the Sun's influence on technological systems deployed on Earth and in space. Achieving a comprehensive understanding of Earth's geospace environment requires knowledge of the ionosphere and magnetosphere in both polar regions. Outlined in this talk is a broad, multi-national plan to investigate in depth, from Antarctica and nominally conjugate regions in the Arctic, the electrodynamic system that comprises the space environment of Planet Earth. Specifics include (a) the phased development of a new and comprehensive upper atmosphere geophysical measurement program based upon distributed instruments operating in an extreme polar environments; (b) real time data collection via satellites; (c) a methodology to build synergistic data sets from a global distribution of southern and northern hemisphere instrument arrays; and (d) an integration with all levels of education including high school, undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral.
