Russian mission to study the high atmosphere

At http://tallbloke.wordpress.com/2014/08/16/satellite-mission-on-high-atmo… … is due to launch in 2015 and a web site in English is scheduled to record what it finds. The satellite is named after Lomonosov. He lived between 1711 and 1765 and helped establish the Moscow University in 1755. The idea is to study cosmic rays (the solar wind), gamma rays bursts, transient luminous phenomena in the upper atmosphere, and magnetospheric particles. It's all getting very exciting – are we on the verge of a paradigm shift?
