SABER Offers a New Way to Study Earth’s Ionosphere and the Effect of Geomagnetic Storms

Researchers have developed a new way to measure Earth’s aurora and are using the technique to learn more about a region of the ionosphere that plays a key role in satellite and radio communications during geomagnetic disturbances.Shortly after NASA’s Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) mission began routine operation in 2002, a solar-geomagnetic storm blasted
