Abstract

The NOAA Space Weather Follow On (SWFO) Program supports NOAA's goal of reducing the impact of severe space weather events, which responds to the 2020 Promoting Research and Observations of Space Weather to Improve the Forecasting of Tomorrow Act. The SWFO Program will ensure continuity of space weather operational Solar Wind and Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) data to its operational users. The SWFO Program includes a SWFO-L1 observatory which will host a Solar Wind Plasma Sensor, a Magnetometer, a SupraThermal Ion Sensor, and a Compact Coronagraph. The SWFO Program will take rideshare with NASA’s IMAP mission scheduled for FY 2025.
