The Glory satellite was a planned NASA satellite mission that would have collected data on the chemical micro-physical and optical properties—and the spatial and temporal distributions—of sulfate and other aerosols and would have collected solar irradiance data for the long-term climate record. The science focus areas served by Glory included: atmospheric composition; carbon cycle ecosystems and biogeochemistry; climate variability and change; and water and energy cycles.
