Introduction
Welcome to the focus group web site for Lunar Solar Origins Exploration (LunaSOX) as an affiliated service of the Virtual Heliospheric Observatory (VHO). We support discovery, access, and correlative analysis for heliophysics and planetary mission science data products relating to interactions of the interplanetary solar wind, magnetic field, and energetic particles with the Moon’s surface and atmospheric environment. Our data browsing services, e.g. for time history plots, frequency distributions, correlative scatter plots, and statistical summaries, have been implemented from those developed for interplanetary field and plasma data by NASA’s Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF), also including earlier support for Apollo ALSEP solar wind monitor data by SPDF’s Coordinated Analysis Web (CDAWeb).
