The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite system (GOES) are a series of geosynchronous satellites operated by the United States’ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The GOES system provides us with solar imagery, magnetometer data, solar X-ray data and data on high energy solar protons at Earth. Below you will find solar imagery at a multitude of wavelengths from a number of different GOES missions.
A lot of people come to SpaceWeatherLive to follow the Sun's activity or if there is aurora to be seen, but with more traffic comes higher server costs. Consider a donation if you enjoy SpaceWeatherLive so we can keep the website online!
