The MPI is one of the experiments that are part of CTS-SAT-1. It has been designed by Dr. Johnathan Burchill to collect data about activity in the Magnetosphere.
The STEVE auroral phenomenon is of particular interest, with regards to the MPI's data collection and analysis, as its effects reach the altitude of the satellite's orbit.
