The solar terrestrial observatory (STO) concept is discussed as well as Space Station accommodations for STO. Instruments for the initial STO which can be used to excite and detect waves include the electrodynamic tether, waves in space plasmas, space experiments with particle accelerators, vehicle charge and potential experiments, recoverable plasma diagnostics package, magnetospheric multiprobes, and theoretical and experimental beam plasma physics. An example is given of a typical campaign mode of operation which is appropriate for active experiments.
