Heliosphere




SVS >> Heliosphere

Movie ID Title
As the CME moves out, the leading edge appears bright while the trailing edge appears dark in difference images. 3406 STEREO Coronal Mass Ejection: From the EUVI to HI-2
We finally bring in the view of the HI-2 instrument which shows the outer regions of the dust corona and stars.  Some constellations are visible.  The dark region on the left side of the image is part of the 'Earth Occulter' in the HI-2 instrument. 3405 STEREO Panoramic View
When the solar wind speed is low, the heliosphere is small. 2856 Model of the Heliosphere Over the Solar Cycle
A narrated video describing the results of the plasma vortex street model 9 Topological Features of a Compressible Plasma Vortex Sheet - a Model of the Outer Heliospheric Wind

Jump into the secrets of our Solar System and discover more about how the heliosphere protects life on Earth and explorers in space. The short videos on this page will answer different questions about the IBEX mission and will help you learn more about the edge of our Solar System. <p>For complete transcript, click <a href='http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/podcasting/AboutIBEX.html'>here</a>. 10260 IBEX: Exploring The Edge Of Our Solar System
Journey to the Heliosphere 10193 Journey to the Heliopause II
Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 headed on different paths out of the Solar System toward interstellar space.  Traveling at different speeds and in different directions, Voyager 1 encountered the termination shock at 94 astronomical units (AU) and Voyager 2 encountered it at only 84 AU.  The result, as seen in this combination of an artist's concept and a researcher's model, is a somewhat 'squashed' picture of the solar system. 10181 Voyager 2 Proves Solar System is Squashed
