The Intercosmos-24 satellite was launched on the Earth’s orbit on September 28, 1989. The IK-24 satellite consisted of the 10kW power transmitter at 9.6kHz, a full plasma diagnostics system located on the spacecraft as well as Czech made sub-satellite released during the mission. The goal of the project was to investigate the elementary turbulence in the ionospheric plasma. Poland provided five plasma wave instruments located on board of spacecraft and one located on the sub-satellite.
