KSC-2010-1710 (02/09/2010) --- CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – This view from the Vertical Integration Facility shows the United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket, with NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory atop, has arrived at Launch Complex 41 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The observatory, known as SDO, is the first mission in NASA's Living With a Star Program and is designed to study the causes of solar variability and its impacts on Earth. The spacecraft's long-term measurements will give solar scientists in-depth information to help characterize the interior of the Sun, the Sun's magnetic field, the hot plasma of the solar corona, and the density of radiation that creates the ionosphere of the planets. Read more...
