Sign in to saveAlso known as Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms, MIDEX 5
Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) mission began in February 2007 as a constellation of five NASA satellites (THEMIS-A through THEMIS-E) to study energy releases from Earth's magnetosphere known as substorms, magnetic phenomena that intensify auroras near Earth's poles. The name of the mission is an acronym alluding to the Titan Themis.

THEMIS é a designação de uma missão espacial que originalmente seria uma constelação de cinco satélites identificados como: THEMIS A, THEMIS B, THEMIS C, THEMIS D e THEMIS E, estudariam o lançamento de energia da magnetosfera terrestre conhecidas como subtempestades, fenômenos celestes que intensificam a ocorrência de auroras nas proximidades dos pólos norte e sul.
