Department of Space Physics is one of the depertments of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, CAS. Taking advantage of a strong heritage of space research in Czechoslovakia and Czechia (including, for example, experience gained from design, and operations of the series of five Magion spacecraft), our researchers and engineers are developing currently scientific instruments for major European space missions.
