In recent years descrepancies came up in the determination of the solar EUV output. Due to lack of detailed information, it is difficult to remove these descrepancies from experimental data. Also, it is not yet possible to verify certain EUV indices by aeronomical calculations. Still, the EUV data show evidence for a strong variability during solar cycle 20. The measuring methods applied so far create uncertainties of the order of plus or minus 30% or somewhat less. Therefore, new methods have to be developed for more accurate measurements. With these methods the EUV indices will be measured with an accuracy better than 10%, using a simple spectrometer on a free-flying long-term mission with recalibration factors provided by short-term mission results (e.g., from Soyuz or Spacelab).
