The Interactions Measurement Payload for Shuttle (IMPS) project will study interactions between large space vehicles, such as the space shuttle, and the low altitude plasma environment over the polar caps and in the auroral zone. Studies will be conducted from the orbiter bay and from a shuttle-based subsatellite, several investigations, and an environmental monitoring package. This will be the first of a series of missions to begin in 1987. This Definition Phase report presents the objectives and requirements of the IMPS project and instrument system followed by the mission design they dictate. The bulk of the report is a technical discussion of the investigations and work done on the space and instrument systems, describing both their capabilities and limitations. A description of the steps for reliability/quality assurance is followed by the recommendations of the JPL engineers and scientist involved in this phase of the IMPS project.
