Hello, this is Robert here. I started studying the Sun when I was a young lad at St Andrews University, Scotland. I now work in Lancashire. Over the years I've spent quite a bit of time at the Goddard Space Flight Center, near Washington, USA. This is the operations centre for several NASA space projects. In my work I study data from solar satellites, so in this section I am going to guide you through the story of scientific satellites, including the ones that I use.
Here is a picture showing some of the solar satellites and their orbits.
