Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  He misioni a NASA i hangaia hei ako i te tauwhitinga o te āpure ā-papa o te Ao me te rā i whakarewahia i tēnei ata i te 2:44am GMT (i te pō whakamutunga i te 10:44pm EDT). Ka whakamahia e te misioni Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) e whā ngā waka ā-ao ōrite hei ine i tētahi tukanga ngaro e mōhiotia ana ko te honohono ā-papa. Mā te hurihuri i te Ao, ka whai te waka ā-ao kia mārama me pēhea te pūngao mai i te rā e rere ki te taiao, ehara i te mea ko tō tātou anake, engari ko ētahi atu aorangi, e puta ai te huarere ā-ao pērā i ngā aurora. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. Ko te United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket me NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) spacecraft i runga i te papa e kitea ana i konei i te whakarewatanga mai i te Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Space Launch Complex 41 i Florida i tenei ata i te 2:44am GMT (i te po whakamutunga i te 10:44pm EDT) Ko te misioni whakaharahara me te uaua ko te wa tuatahi ka akohia tenei ahuatanga o te whetu i roto i nga korero tino pai. I whakarewahia nga waka rererangi i runga i te United Launch Alliance Atlas V 421 rocket mai i Cape Canaveral Air Force Station i Florida. I muri i te whakatutukitanga o te orbit, ka whakarewahia ia waka ā-ao mai i te taumata o runga o te rocket i roto i nga nekehanga e rima meneti. 'Kei te korero ahau mo te roopu MMS katoa ina kii au kei te harikoa matou ki te kite i a maatau waka rererangi e wha kua tohatohahia, ana ko nga raraunga e tohu ana kei a maatau he ope hauora,' e kii ana a Craig Tooley, kaiwhakahaere kaupapa i te Goddard Space Flight Center a NASA i Greenbelt, Maryland. Ka puta te honohono magnetic i nga waahi katoa e noho ana nga hau kua utua, e kiia ana ko te plasma. He mea onge i runga i te Ao, engari e 99 ōrau o te ao e kitea ana te plasma, e whakakii ana i ngā whetū, e whakakii ana i te mokowā ā-roto. Kei roto i tēnei plasma ngā āpure autō e pā ana ki te āhua o te nekeneke o ngā matūriki taimaha e tūtaki ana. I raro i ngā āhuatanga noa, e kore e pakaru, e whakakotahi rānei ngā rārangi āpure autō i roto i ngā plasma ki ētahi atu rārangi āpure. Engari i ētahi wā, i te wā e whakatata mai ana ngā raina ā-rohe ki a rātou anō, ka huri te tauira katoa, ā, ka whakarōpūtia ngā mea katoa ki tētahi hanganga hōu. He nui rawa te nui o te pūngao e tukuna ana. Ko te honohono i te honohono ka uru ki te pūngao kua tiakina...
I whakarewahia te misioni Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) a NASA mai i Florida. E whā ngā waka ā-ao ōrite i kawea ki te āputa i te 2: 44am GMT i tēnei ata. Ka ako te misioni i te tauwhitinga o te whenua me ngā āpure ā-maneta o te rā. Mā tēnei e puta ai ngā'pahūtanga ā-papa' e waihanga ana i ngā aurora i runga i te Ao. Engari he mōrearea anō hoki te āhuatanga mō ngā amiorangi i te aorangi.
