NOAA's Science On a Sphere (SOS) is a cutting-edge global display system that projects stunning visualizations of planetary data onto a six-foot diameter sphere, transforming the experience of learning about Earth System science for audiences of all ages. With over 600 datasets ranging from ocean currents to solar ultraviolet rays, SOS brings complex scientific information to life in an engaging and accessible manner.
In addition to the large sphere, NOAA offers SOS Explorer, a flat-screen adaptation designed for smaller spaces, ensuring that educational content is widely available. Supported by the SOS Users Collaborative Network, these programs foster collaboration among institutions to enhance educational programming and content creation around planetary science.
