Solar ultraviolet radiation is completely absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere where it becomes the dominant direct energy input. During IGY some of the very first observations of the ultraviolet Sun were obtained from early sounding rocket experiments. These observational programs have now been pursued for more than fifty years, and today satellite instruments make daily observations of solar irradiance from soft x-ray wavelengths through the ultraviolet. In early 2003, the Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment, SORCE, was launched. This NASA mission continues the ultraviolet observations, but now extends the spectral coverage through the visible to the near infrared, providing the first record of irradiance at these longer wavelengths with sufficient precision and accuracy to detect solar variations. Here we provide a review of past spectral irradiance observations and an overview of the observing systems planned to be operational during IHY.
