Space-Based Solar Physics

by Joseph A. Angelo, Jr.

Description

Since the start of the Space Age in the late 1950s, an armada of spacecraft have been sent into outer space to investigate the Sun and its interaction with Earth. Space-Based Solar Physics features the most notable and influential solar observation missions that have launched in the last three decades. These missions include: NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) satellite, the Ulysses mission, the Parker Solar Probe, and the Solar Orbiter mission. Each of these missions has provided valuable new insights into the behavior, dynamics, and functioning of humankind’s parent star, making this eBook an essential read for any student interested in learning more about the Sun.
