Descripción : Cap Canaveral post stamp and Orbiting solar observatory, solar study.

The primary objectives of OSO 6 were the acquisition of high spectral-resolution data within the 1 to 1300 A range, the observation of solar X-rays in the 20 to 200 keV range, and the observation of high-energy neutron flux in the 20 to 130 MeV range. Seven experiments were carried on the spacecraft. Two of these were located in the sail portion and were designed to point toward the sun. The remaining five experiments were mounted in compartments of the nine-sided rotating wheel section and scanned the solar disk every 2 s when the spacecraft was in sunlight.
