 Overall Project Info

Picture
SDO is designed to help us understand the Sun's influence on Earth and Near-Earth space by studying the solar atmosphere on small scales of space and time and in many wavelengths simultaneously. The Solar Dynamics Observatory is the first mission for NASA's Living With a Star (LWS) Program. It launched on February 11th, 2010. Genesis Engineering Solutions provided spacecraft design, development, verification and test support for the SDO project.
