Mission

Two spacecraft float in a dark blue space above a blue Earth with white clouds. A white/yellow Sun (center) is rising, shining white and yellow rays upwards.

Tandem Reconnection and Cusp Electrodynamics Reconnaissance Satellites (TRACERS) will help understand magnetic reconnection and its effects in Earth’s atmosphere. By understanding this process, scientists will be able to better understand and prepare for the impacts of solar activity on Earth.
