NASA's Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) mission is positioned approximately 1.5 million km closer to the Sun than the Earth, at a point (called the Lagrangian L1 point) where the gravitational pull of both bodies balances. ACE measures IMF and solar wind data in near real time. These data can give advance warning of the arrival at the Earth's magnetosphere of, for example a CME, with about 20-60 minutes lead-time, depending on the solar wind speed. Back to the top.

Abbreviation for Aerosol Characterization Experiments, a part of the IGAC program. ACE-1 is the first of a series of experiments that will quantify the chemical and physical processes controlling the evolution and properties of the atmospheric aerosols relevant to radiative forcing and climate. The ultimate objective of these studies is to provide the data necessary to incorporate aerosols into global climate models and reduce the overall uncertainty in the calculation of climate forcing due to aerosols. ACE-1 will document the chemical, physical and radiative properties and determine the controlling processes of the aerosols in the remote marine atmosphere, while ACE-2 will extend these characterization and process studies to the North Atlantic with an emphasis on the anthropogenic perturbatino of the background aerosols. See the ACE Web site.

ACE stands for angiotensin-converting enzyme. By splitting proteins, these enzymes convert angiotensin I into angiotensin II, a substance that increases salt and water in the body and leads to high blood pressure, a real no-no. ACE inhibitors make blood vessels relax, helping to lower blood pressure and allowing more oxygen-rich blood to reach the heart. Research shows POM Wonderful reduced ACE by 36% in ten elderly patients with high blood pressure after drinking an 8 oz. glass a day for only 2 weeks and also lowered their systolic blood pressure by 5%. 11
