SpaceX Launches IMAP, CGO, SWFO-L1 to Probe Solar Frontier and Space Weather
A Falcon 9 lifted off from Kennedy Space Center on Sept. 24, 2025, carrying NASA’s IMAP, CGO, and SWFO-L1 spacecraft. The mission aims to chart the heliosphere’s boundary, monitor Earth’s geocorona, and deliver constant space-weather alerts, protecting satellites and astronauts while expanding knowledge of the solar system’s outer edge.

IMAP Space Weather Mission to Lift Off Soon, NASA Confirms Broadcast Plans
NASA will stream the Sept. 23 launch of IMAP with two rideshare satellites from Kennedy Space Centre. IMAP will study the heliosphere, Carruthers will image Earth’s exosphere, and NOAA’s SWFO-L1 will provide early solar storm warnings. Together, the missions advance space weather science while protecting satellites, communications, and power sy...

NASA’s IMAP Spacecraft Gears Up for Mission to Explore Solar System’s Edge
NASA’s Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) has begun final preparations at Kennedy Space Center for a launch no earlier than September 2025. The mission will position IMAP at Lagrange Point 1, a million miles from Earth, to study the solar wind and the edge of the heliosphere. The spacecraft, built by Johns Hopkins APL, will fly al...

NASA’s IMAP Spacecraft Prepares to Map the Solar System’s Edge
NASA’s Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) has been delivered to the Astrotech facility near Kennedy Space Center for final preparations ahead of a tentatively planned launch in fall 2025. IMAP will map the heliosphere — the solar wind-driven bubble that shields our solar system from cosmic radiation. It is to orbit near Lagrange...
