         <Description>The Space Weather Observations at L1 to Advance Readiness (SOLAR) series is a NOAA program of space weather observatories designed to operate near the Sun-Earth L1 point. The SOLAR observatories provide continuous, real-time observations of the solar corona and upstream solar wind, including plasma and magnetic field measurements, to support operational space weather forecasting. The series includes SOLAR-1 and the planned SOLAR-A and SOLAR-B observatories, providing continuity and resilience of critical L1 space weather observations.</Description>
