In 2025, NASA will launch its first mission to image the magnetic fingerprint of intense electrical currents that flow high in our atmosphere when auroras shimmer above Earth’s poles.
On March 23, 2023, NASA's Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) successfully passed its critical design review, marking a major milestone for the project and keeping it on pace for a scheduled launch next year.
After rigorous review, NASA's Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) mission – a mission to study electrical currents in Earth's upper atmosphere – passed a key developmental milestone, pushing the mission from the design phase to the construction phase.
