FAST

 1996-049A

---

The Fast Auroral Snapshot Explorer (FAST) was a SMEX mission whose launch was delayed several years due to Pegasus problems. The 162 kg satellite was built by GSFC to carry out a very high time resolution study of auroral electrons and ions correlated with other probes. Principal investigator was Charles Carson of University of California at Berkeley. The bus is a cylinder 0.86m long and 1.17m diameter with four booms 30 m long to measure electric fields, and two magnetometer booms. The 12rpm spinning satellite keeps its axis aligned with the orbit normal. Planned orbit is 350 x 4200 km x 83 deg.

A launch attempt was made on 1996 Aug 18, but the drop was cancelled eleven minutes before launch because of communications problems and the L-1011 returned to Vandenberg. Launch came successfully on Aug 21. The mission operated until May 2009.
