Due to the lapse in federal government funding, NASA is not updating this website.

The SDO web server has had a hardware failure with its data storage, so some features and data are temporarily unavailable. The team is working to restore access as soon as possible. Please refer to the Data Access Page to find alternate sources of SDO data.
