The Ultraviolet Imager (UVI) is a small sophisticated camera, which from Earth orbit, will detect and produce images of the ultraviolet light of the aurora, day and night. As such, it is one of eleven instruments onboard the Polar spacecraft, which is the second mission of NASA's Global Geospace Science (GGS) Program.
