Considered as a more advanced version of the Orbiting Solar Observatory series of the early 1960s, the AOSO was a cancelled NASA satellite program. It was conceived as a polar-orbiting satellite system which could continuously monitor the sun and the surrounding environment with detectors and electronic imaging devices functioning from the x-ray to the visual range. Due to budget constraints the AOSO program was cancelled in 1965.
