Abstract

This FAIRsharing record describes: The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) is a NASA mission launched in 2010 to study the Sun and its influence on Earth and the solar system. It continuously observes the Sun in high resolution, capturing detailed images and measurements of the solar atmosphere, magnetic fields, and energy output. SDO data helps scientists understand solar activity such as sunspots, flares, and coronal mass ejections. The mission provides open, real-time data that supports both scientific research and space-weather forecasting.
