So it's fingers crossed for the Solar Dynamics Observatory, destined to help the predictions of "space weather".
SDO promises to become an exciting mission as an orbiting solar observatory with multiple high-definition telescopes has never been attempted before…  The prelaunch readiness press conference will be held at 1 p.m. EST, on Monday, 8th February 2010 from the Kennedy Space Center News Center. It will be immediately followed by the SDO science briefing, both briefings will be broadcast live on NASA Television. Launch is set for 9th February 2010 (10:30 – 11:30 a.m. EST). |

SDO Day 76: Getting Ready for Science Data
Mon, 26 Apr SDO is moving toward becoming an operational science mission. The data will be available from several sites in a variety of formats. SDO scientists and engineers are working to set up those access points, but we won't be ready for regular data releases until mid-May. Next step is the EVE calibration rocket, scheduled to fly on May 3, 2010 from the White Sands Missile Range. |
