A specialized instrument designed to block out the light of the sun so researchers can glimpse the burning star's hot, thin and outermost layer called the corona.
Currently, LASCO is on its own in space as there's no backup coronagraph instrument available for scientists to keep an eye on the sun’s activity.
Next month , when the NOAA 's GOES-U satellite launches to space, aboard it will be the Naval Research Laboratory's Compact Coronagraph-1.
LASCO's research has been important in helping scientists better understand the sun's atmosphere and impacts on space weather.
Now that it's nearing the end of its chapter, CCOR-1 is ready to begin a new one.
Images will come through the device much cleaner as it is built to reduce impacts that could be associated with bigger solar storms like the creation of white specks or "snow" on the detector.
