IMAP Real-Time Space Weather Data Stream Debuts for Forecasts
NASA's Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) at Sun–Earth L1 now streams near real-time space weather data through the I-ALiRT pipeline, adding new measurements (high-energy electron counts, helium ion counts, solar wind charge-state ratios and abundances, counterstreaming electrons) to improve timely warnings and forecasts; data and quick-look plots are available for forecasters and researchers.
