The Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) was the first satellite to be launched under the Earth Observing System (EOS) science program of multi-mission observing systems of the National Aeronautics and Space Administrations (NASA). The EOS program was conceived to advance the understanding of the Earth-Atmosphere system on the global scale. The UARS was launched in September 1991 with ten instruments dedicated entirely to increase the understanding of chemistry and dynamics of the Earth's stratosphere and mesosphere. After 10 years of successful data collection (far exceeding the originally projected lifetime of 3 years), the official mission ended in September 2001. However, seven instruments aboard UARS are still operational and six regularly take measurements. It is expected that the UARS will overlap the Earth Observing System (EOS) Aura satellite (to be launched in early 2004) for several months before the end of the UARS mission. The UARS data and atmospheric chemistry and dynamics data from other satellites are archived at the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Distributed Active Archive Center (GES DAAC) and are available free to the public and science user community. The UARS data and related documents may be accessed through the GES DAAC website (http://daac.gsfc.nasa.gov). This paper gives an overview of the UARS data products. Detailed information on UARS instruments, mission highlights and related publications are available from the UARS project website (http://umpgal.gsfc.nasa.gov).
