Description
The data in these files was produced from measurements acquired by the Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, formerly known as GLIDE (Global Lyman-alpha Imagers of the Dynamic Exosphere), a NASA Heliophysics Mission of Opportunity. Each daily-batched data file contains a set of outer exospheric density distributions derived from Carruthers observations of ultraviolet emission from Earth's extended exosphere acquired by the GCI's Wide Field Imager.
