6 THEMIS Mission Status All instruments functioning nominally Cross calibration, inter-calibration performed during coast-phase Team discoveries are changing the field, excite the public Science discoveries piling up >100 papers in refereed journals GRL special issue on THEMIS, on Coast Phase JGR special issue on THEMIS First Results ICS10 meeting coming up special issue in JGR (THEMIS-centric) Data collected per plan, and widely disseminated First tail season showed thinner tail than expected Preliminary results published; adjusted 2 nd tail season orbit Second tail season results are a resounding success More than a dozen substorms collected: unique features on quiet time substorms Mission completion on time, on budget by September 2009 Constellation available in good health for extended mission: FY Extended Phase Approved in Senior Review (Jun 09) thru Sep 2012 THEMIS and comprise the THEMIS Extended Phase Instruments checked out especially for low field conditions THEMIS extended phase planning has started Clustered configuration, unique at inner magnetosphere; at km Preparing the ground for MMS that will revisit the region in technical implementation going very well THEMIS mini-swt 6 SSL/UCB Dec.19, 2009
7 THEMIS+: Financial Status THEMIS in late FY09 and extended phase has incurred a 40% reduction in force Science and operations for THEMIS had to be reduced significantly, but is now stable Early reductions due to support of that could not be covered by available cash-flow Personnel plan has stabilized, plan fits available budget Philosophy: Support youngest team members with partial support for senior members. Maintain only critical mission operations, science/instrument processing functions Reduced community support to: 1. sustaining already developed tools and 2. continue training Discovery potential is tremendous, as THEMIS tools mature & data quality improves THEMIS is a gold mine, due to already collected data and regions to be visited in the next 2 years It is important for team members to obtain NASA/SR&T, NSF support. 1. Solar/Heliospheric SR&T (LOI December 4, 2009, Proposals February 5, 2010) GI due in May, SR&T due July, TR&T due October, NSF: Space Weather in January, Base: Jul-Sep THEMIS FY12-14: 14: additional ~25% decrease expected (Requires ops reduction) has been funded by HPS Senior Review 08, for operations only Plans now: get to the moon, ensure data comes back, processed and released Contract to be executed with proposed personnel plan (by January) Planetary goals : proposal submitted but in a joint Helio+Planetary decision not evaluated Helio MO&DA program over-committed cash-flow status in 2010 is unclear THEREFORE: HQ requested that a Helio+Planetary Senior Review proposal be submitted jointly Separate from THEMIS, will be evaluated by joint panel of experts Upon (positive) re-evaluation, cash-flow will be committed for remainder of the year THEMIS mini-swt 7 SSL/UCB Dec.19, 2009

Discuss main mission objectives for FY Keep mission operationally simple, yet scientifically productive Increase synergy with RBSP Increase synergy with ERG and Orbitals Plan out FY14-16 and request appropriate budget planning for it Synergy with MMS is significant; advance planning required proposal Evaluate proposed plans for FY10-12 Take into account recent Geotail and Kaguya results, look into synergy with LRO & LADEE Discuss plans for FY12-14; probes will continue to be in-orbit about the moon Look into synergy with LADEE prime/extended and upcoming International Lunar Network THEMIS mini-swt 8 SSL/UCB Dec.19, 2009

Extended mission is ideally positioned to go beyond timing studies THEMIS mini-swt 14 SSL/UCB Dec.19, 2009
