Description
This data collection consists of archived Space Weather Follow On Lagrange 1 (SOL-1) Level 1b data from the Magnetometer (MAG). The archival process includes daily files. The MAG instrument generates 1 daily file per level in the netCDF-4 format. These data are produced by the MAG instrument aboard the SOL-1 spacecraft. MAG monitors the interplanetary magnetic field for abrupt changes which can result from interplanetary shocks, coronal mass ejections, corotating interaction regions or high speed solar wind that can result in geomagnetic storms that are harmful to life and technology. SOL-1 will launch in 2025. Other products available are auxiliary files (frm-rt-l0_sol1, frm-st-l0_sol1, pkt-l0_sol1, orb-pr_sol1, sc-att_sol1); MAG files (mag-l0b_sol1, mag-l1a_sol1, mag-l2_sol1, mag-l3-avg1m_sol1, and mag-l3-avg1s_sol1); and, National Centers for Environmental Data (NCEI) Retrospective Science products (sci_mag-l1a_sol1, sci_mag-l1b_sol1, sci_mag-l2_sol1, sci_mag-l3-avg1m_sol1, and sci_mag-l3-avg1s_sol1).

| SWFO Instruments | Unknown | The Space Weather Follow On Lagrange 1 (SOL-1) mission is a deep-space mission operating in a Lissajous orbit at the Sun-Earth Lagrange 1 (L1) point, enabling upstream measurements of solar wind disturbances before they reach Earth. It will provide continuous measurements of the sunâs corona and of the solar wind at the L1 point and transmit continuous real-time data to Earth. | Open resource |
