The electrodynamic tether consists of a satellite deployed to a distance of 20 km by an electrically conducting tether. The space station hardware consists of a 12 meter deployment boom, satellite cradle, tether reel and motor, and other tether support systems. The electrodynamic tether will be used to perform a variety of wave experiments by exciting a wide spectrum of low frequency waves in the ionospheric plasma. The system can also be used to artificially generate and study field aligned currents and associated plasma effects. Hydromagnetic waves generated by the passage of the system through the space plasma are of particular interest in space plasma research
