One year after their launch from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on Aug. 30, 2012, NASA's twin Van Allen Probes have already fundamentally changed how we understand the Van Allen radiation belts above our planet.

The mission has answered one long-standing question about the nature and behavior of the belts, and revealed that the outer belt can split into two separate belts.
