Abstract
The exploitation of the present tethered system and the need for repeat missions; multiple payloads placed along the tether; the extension of the present altitude limit to below 130 km; the development of free-flying tether satellites for studying both the Earth's atmosphere and ionosphere and also for studying the plantes; and a subtether were discussed. Areas of research were identified: aeronomy studies, gravity and magnetic potential mission, advanced sensors for geodynamics, and mapping and remote sensing.
