Picard SODISM, a Space Telescope to Study the Sun from the Middle Ultraviolet to the Near Infrared
The Solar Diameter Imager and Surface Mapper (SODISM) onboard the Picard space mission provides wide-field images of the photosphere and chromosphere of the Sun in five narrow bandpasses centered at 215.0, 393.37, 535.7, 607.1, and 782.2 nm. The Picard spacecraft was successfully launched on 15 June...
