NASA's ICON satellite MIGHTI-A instrument provides measurements of horizontal wind speed and direction in the Earth's thermosphere. The instrument uses Doppler spectroscopy on atomic oxygen emissions at 630.0 nm and 557.7 nm to derive winds and photometry of the molecular oxygen A-band around 762 nm for temperature. Data from this viewing direction, combined with a perpendicular view from MIGHTI-B, allows for the reconstruction of the full wind vector.
