Science Objectives

3

• Understand the Sun and its interactions with Earth

and the solar system, including space weather

• Ascertain the content, origin, and evolution of the

solar system and the potential for life elsewhere

• Discover how the universe works, explore how it

began and evolved, and search for life on planets

around other stars

• Advance knowledge of Earth as a system to meet the

challenges of environmental change, and to improve

life on our planet

DSCOVR - EPIC

• Release of Epic Images

• First publically released picture of Earth from the first Lagrange point.

• The image showed the western hemisphere centered in the image with clouds covering the Mississippi Valley and the North East, brilliant blue waters around the Bahamas and the snow pack covering Greenland.

• Lunar transit images were released shortly thereafter.

• The images and related news stories were carried on social media and press articles around the world. 19

Voyager

Voyager 1's magnetic field slowly turning: Right after the crossing of the Heliopause, Voyager 1

saw unexpected magnetic field that was not aligned with the interstellar magnetic field direction

as deduced from IBEX, SOHO and Ulysses. It now turns out that it was deflected and that it's

slowly turning back with increasing distance - right into the expected direction by 2025.
