In 2016, NASA released an animation of the sun doing a somersault. The capture was the result of a seven-hour maneuver the SDO completes once a year to take an accurate measure of the star’s edge.
The Sun has unleashed a powerful solar flare, Nasa has said. The flare, designated X2.3, belongs to the most intense X class of flares. It was spotted by Nasa’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which ...
NASA/GSFC/Solar Dynamics Observatory Powerful geomagnetic storms are becoming more common now that the sun has reached solar maximum , which happens when our star's poles flip, causing havoc with ...
The detailed images recorded by SDO in 2011–2012 have helped scientists uncover new secrets about the Sun. The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) is a NASA mission which has been observing the Sun since 2010. [4] Launched on 11 February 2010, the observatory is part of the Living With a Star (LWS) program.

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) mission was launched in 2010 and is currently studying solar activity and how it causes space weather. Space weather affects not only our lives on Earth, but Earth itself, and everything outside its atmosphere (astronauts and satellites out in space and even the other planets). SDO is helping us ...
2010 – The atmospheric imaging assembly and the helioseismic and magnetic imager on NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) Two of the instruments for the next generation GOES-R satellites – the Geostationary Lightning Mapper ( GLM ) and the Solar Ultraviolet Imager ( SUVI ) – are currently under construction.
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory images a solar flare erupting from the left side of the sun. NASA/SDO via Reuters The sun is growing more active than scientists predicted.
The Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) is a worldwide network of six identical telescopes, designed to have 24/7 observations of the Sun. [1] The network serves multiple purposes, including the provision of operation data for use in space weather prediction, [2] and the study of solar internal structure and dynamics using helioseismology.
