| Abstract | The Millstone Hill Geospace Facility is a crucial observatory for studies of the near-Earth space environment or geospace. For nearly 6 solar cycles, the Facility has been an anchor for mid-latitude and subauroral geospace research, the latitudinal region where most of the US population lives. A multitude of processes occur in this region that can have adverse effects on critical infrastructure including communication and navigation networks, power distribution networks, and pipelines.
