The Triple Ionosophere PhotoMeter (TRIPM) is designed to make the disk observations of the Earth airglow emissions at OI 135.6 nm and N2 Lyman-Birge-Hopfield (LBH) band that flew aboard the newly launched early morning satellite Fengyun-3E (FY-3E) which was launched on July 5th, 2021. This is the first attempt to obtain the global twilight airglow data in the far ultraviolet band using Ionosophere PhotoMeter. The seasonal behavior of the twilight airglow at the OI 135.6 nm and N2LBH band is exhibited and interpreted in the paper. Validity of the TRIPM data is analyzed by comparison with the simulation results of the Global Airglow (GLOW) and the simulation results reveal good consistency with the observational results. Furthermore, based on the ionospheric contributions calculated by GLOW model, we extract the ionospheric information from the TRIPM 135.6 nm emissions. This means the ionospheric signature in the 135.6 nm radiance at the dawn and dusk times can be provided. Comparison between the ionospheric 135.6 nm radiance due to O+ and electron radiative recombination with GPS TEC data shows a similar morphology of equatorial arcs and seasonal variation of the ionosphere.
