Aim of this page is to provide links to the available home pages of
different satellites (see our data page for
information about available data).
In all cases there is no official home page, and
one of the available pages has been chosen more or less arbitrarily.
Note also that all the missions are not "space physics" in the
sense this service defines it, and we may later on separate the
more relevant (to us) projects from the others.
