Swarm is the fifth Earth Explorer mission approved in ESA's Living Planet Programme,
and was successfully launched on 22 November 2013.
As part of the Third Party Missions programme, the e-POP instrument of the Canadian Space Agency's
CASSIOPE mission joined the constellation in February 2018.
The research objectives of the Swarm mission is to provide the best-ever survey of the geomagnetic
field and its temporal evolution as well as the electric field in the atmosphere using a constellation of
3 identical satellites - Swarm-A (Alpha), Swarm-B (Bravo), Swarm-C (Charlie) carrying sophisticated magnetometers and electric field instruments.
