It is installed in the Southern Regional Center, in São Martinho da Serra/RS. It is able to observe secondary cosmic rays in various directions, having been designed for operation in conjunction with a similar telescope installed in Japan (Nagoya). Joint observations allow the detection of solar-interplanetary disturbances up to 10 hours before his arrival on Earth, allowing prediction of the occurrence of geomagnetic storms. The TCM is 80% complete, since being able to provide data for the program.

Other systems: HF radio propagation can fade at higher latitudes, and aurora has been seen as low as New York and Idaho (typically 55° geomagnetic lat.)
possible changes in drag affect orbit predictions.
Spacecraft operations: corrective actions to orientation may be required by ground control
Power systems: high-latitude power systems may experience voltage alarms, long-duration storms may cause transformer damage.
