Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-009037

A specialized instrument designed to observe the Sun's corona and solar flares in X-ray wavelengths. It captures images of high-energy phenomena that are not visible in other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Such imagers are often deployed on satellites, like those in the GOES series, to monitor space weather.
