SuperDARN, or Super Dual Auroral Radar Network, is a collaborative network comprising over 30 low-power HF radars that monitor the Earth's upper atmosphere, extending from midlatitudes to polar regions. This continuous operation provides vital information about the ionosphere and space weather, which is crucial for understanding radiation exposure for high-altitude travelers and disruptions to communication networks and electrical power grids.

Funded by the National Science Foundation as part of the Space Weather Research Program, SuperDARN involves a collaboration between several institutions, including Virginia Tech, Dartmouth College, Penn State University, and the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. The network also boasts numerous international partners dedicated to the study of the ionosphere and its relationship with space weather phenomena.
