The alouette (Roem.) 2 and explorer (Roem.) 31 satellites were placed in orbit by a single launch vehicle and separated. Cylindrical electrostatic probes of identical design were installed on each satellite in part to test the effects of the long sounder antennas and large radio-frequency power on alouette (Roem.) 2 upon direct measurements of the thermal electrons and ions. Comparisons of the early data, taken when the satellites were separated less than 1000 km along their common orbit, suggest that there is no inherent incompatibility between the sounder experiment and direct measurement experiments.
