Description

Explore the history of space exploration with The Cluster and Phoenix Missions by Springer. This book provides a detailed account of the Cluster mission, which was a primary component of the Solar Terrestrial Science Programme (STSP). As one of the two missions forming the first cornerstone of ESA's Horizon 2000 Programme, Cluster holds a significant place in astronomical history. Readers will learn about the challenges faced by the European Space Agency following the Ariane-5 accident on June 4, 1996. The text explains how the loss of the four original Cluster spacecraft led to a new chapter in space science. You will discover how the ESA Science Programme Committee approved the refurbishment of a spare spacecraft to create Phoenix, the first vessel of a new fleet. This publication is a valuable resource for those interested in astronomy, space science, and the technical evolution of ESA missions. It documents the transition from the original Cluster mission to the development of the Phoenix spacecraft, offering a unique look at how space agencies respond to unexpected setbacks to continue scientific discovery.
