Exospheric hydrogen density distributions for equinox and summer solstice observed with TWINS1/2 during solar minimum

The Lyman-α Detectors (LAD) on board the two TWINS 1/2-satellites allow for the simultaneous stereo imaging of the resonant emission glow of the H-geocorona from very different orbital positions. Terrestrial exospheric atomic hydrogen (H) resonantly scatters solar Lyman-α (121.567 nm) radiation....
