NOAA GOES-R Series Extreme Ultraviolet and X-ray Irradiance Sensors (EXIS) Instrument Calibration Data

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The Extreme Ultraviolet and X-ray Irradiance Sensors detect solar soft X-ray irradiance and solar extreme ultraviolet spectral irradiance in the 5-127 nm range.

Description

The XRay Sensor (XRS) monitors solar flares that can disrupt communications and degrade navigational accuracy, affecting satellites, astronauts, high latitude airline passengers, and power grid performance. The Extreme Ultraviolet Sensor monitors solar variations that directly affect satellite drag/tracking and ionospheric changes, which impact communications and navigation operations.

This information is critical to understanding the outer layers of the Earth's atmosphere. EXIS will reside on the Sun Pointing Platform mounted in the yoke of the solar array.
