- An Introduction to PUNCH: Video presentations of PUNCH mission, science, and outreach
- From Observations to Science
Topical Focus Groups
PUNCH Science Working Groups host Topical Focus Groups open to the scientific community, including a new Focus Group for promoting synergistic studies with other missions: PUNCH CONNECT. Everyone is welcome to join in these activities!
Science Operations Center
The PUNCH Science Operations Center (SOC) responsibilities begin with receiving raw data from the Mission Operations Center. The SOC first validates the data is properly received and that the satellites are operating normally. Next, the SOC calibrates that data to create scientifically useful data products. Those data products are distributed via the NASA Solar Data Analysis Center (SDAC) and indexed by the Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO). Before launch, the SOC is busy creating the data calibration pipeline, available on the PUNCH GitHub.
Meetings
The PUNCH team organizes special sessions at community meetings like the AGU as well as annual winter topical telecons and in-person science meetings. See our meetings page for upcoming and past meetings.
