The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) mission is to understand and predict changes in climate, Earth, atmosphere, oceans and coasts, and space weather to share that knowledge and information with others for the protection of life and property as the Nation’s authoritative source for environmental data.
The NOAA Office of Space Weather Observations (SWO) requires an extensible multi-mission ground system and mission services to support continuity of space weather observations through NESDIS management of satellite observatories in orbit around Earth-Sun Lagrange Point 1 and other orbits.
The growing user needs in the space weather community ,motivating the Space Weather Follow On (SWFO) and Space Weather Next, include maintaining continuity of critical observations from all applicable orbits, longer-lead times and more accurate solar storm warnings that require improved forecasts of the location of the auroral oval and probability of impacts to aviation, energy, and defense, and new upper-atmospheric weather and satellite drag forecasting.
