NVIDIA WEBINAR
NASA scientists speed-up solar image analysis using Big Data Analytics and reduced computations that would've taken a 1 year on CPU to less than a week with Quadro RTX Data Science Workstations. Researchers at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center have developed algorithms to analyze the immense number of solar images taken since 2010 by the Solar Dynamics Observatory. They are using errors in the images to help identify the origins of energetic particles in Earth’s orbit that could damage interplanetary spacecraft. They are also using the same images to track solar surface flows to support better models for predicting the weather in space. With Quadro RTX-powered Z by HP data science workstations, the NASA team can easily sort through the data and analyze images up to 150X faster than CPU.

Raphael Attié is a solar astronomer at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center with George Mason University. He works with the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), a telescope that has been observing the Sun from space since 2010. Raphael works on tracking and mapping the flows of plasma at the solar surface using the high-resolution image series from SDO. His research aims at better anticipating solar flares and coronal mass ejections.
Dr. Michael Kirk is a research scientist in the Heliophysics Science Division at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center with ASTRA, LLC. He is working in support of the Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite studying the physics of the sun, the causes of solar variability, and its impacts on Earth.
