ICON, The Ionospheric Connection Explorer (ICON) will study the frontier of space: the dynamic zone high in our atmosphere where Earth weather and space weather meet. It will be launched by the air-launched Pegasus XL rocket booster, which will be dropped from an L-1011 aircraft named "Stargazer" off the coast of Florida near Cape Canaveral. The launch will be too far from shore to be seen, but will be covered via Webcast.
