Investigation of a proposed facility and review of the Atmosphere Explorer C (AE-C) satellite experience is presented. In order to properly take advantage of plans to operate in the lower thermosphere, it is necessary to have some foreknowledge of the natural environment in this region, how vehicles interact with the natural environment, and how instruments must be designed and built to operate in this environment. Some of the fundamental questions to be addressed by such a mission are reviewed as well as the AE-C satellite experience.
