Solar Ultraviolet Data from Orbiting Solar Observatory (OSO) Space Missions 1962 - 1978
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The Orbiting Solar Observatory (OSO) series 1 & 3 - 8 collected solar UV data in the years 1962 - 1978.
Description
Many instruments were used to observe in various wavelength bands, tabulated below. The data consist of photon fluxes in certain wavelength bands, recorded in tables, plots and catalogs on microfiche, and on digital magnetic tapes.
The instrumentation and quantity of data improved with succeeding spacecraft in the series.

UV Spectrometer 1050 - 2300 A 6/23/75 - 9/30/78 Data sets from the above experiments are held at NSSDC. Some solar data still is held at Principal Investigator institutes. OSO 5 and 7 UV data are held by W. Neupert (301-286-3756), NASA/GSFC.
OSO 8 data are held by C. A. Barth, Univ. Colo. (303-492-7502), and access is possible for members of the PI team.
