Radiation Belt Storm ProbeThe mission’s science objectives are
to:
• Discover which processes, singly
or in combination, accelerate and
transport radiation belt electrons
and ions and under what
conditions. conditions.
• Understand and quantify the loss
of radiation belt electrons and
determine the balance between
competing acceleration and loss
processes.
• Understand how the radiation
belts change in the context of
geomagnetic storms. 18

Sally Ride
Sally Ride broke barriers with grace and professionalism -- and literally changed the face of America's space program…The nation has lost one of its finest leaders, teachers and explorers. Our thoughts and prayers are with Sally's family and the many she inspired. She will be missed, but her star will always shine brightly."
- NASA Administrator, Charlie Bolden
Sally’s historic flight into space captured the Sally’s historic flight into space captured the nation’s imagination and made her a household name. She became a symbol of the ability of women to break barriers and a hero to generations of adventurous young girls. After retiring from NASA, Sally used her high profile to champion a cause she believed in passionately—inspiring young people, especially girls, to stick with their interest in science, to become scientifically literate, and to consider pursuing careers in science and engineering.

Neil Armstrong
"On behalf of the entire NASA family, I would like to express my deepest condolences to Carol and the rest of the Armstrong family on the passing of Neil Armstrong. As long as there are history books, Neil Armstrong will be included in them, remembered for taking humankind's first small step on a world beyond our own…
"As we enter this next era of space exploration, we "As we enter this next era of space exploration, we do so standing on the shoulders of Neil Armstrong. We mourn the passing of a friend, fellow astronaut and true American hero.“
- NASA Administrator, Charlie Bolden
“… For those who may ask what they can do to honor Neil, we have a simple request…Honor his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink.“
-The Armstrong Family
