SOHO is a joint NASA and ESA mission that monitors the Sun with a variety of instruments.

Among the SOHO instruments is the Michelson Doppler Interferometer (MDI) and the Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT).

Movie   ID   Title
This movie shows the orbits of the fleet of NASA spacecraft exploring the heliosphere.   3570   NASA's Heliophysics Observatories Study the Sun and Geospace
SOHO/TRACE Intro with bonus Sun Shots segment.<p><p><p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href='SOHOtraceTranscript.htm'>here</a>.   10421   SOHO/TRACE Intro
The sun surface in motion.  Large cell-like features on the Sun called supergranules are seen as white stripes.   10079   Wave

Movie   ID   Title
We begin our flight through the loops, noting that the more prominent regions on the surface have a higher density of field lines.   3346   Grand Tour of the Coronal Loops Model
Another angle of the model showing a number of active regions.   3287   Rotating Tour of Solar Coronal Loops
This is a stereo version of the movie.  Note the stereo appearance is not that effective because of the predominant green coloration of the movie.<img src='/images/stereoicon.png'>   3286   Flight through the Coronal Loops

Movie   ID   Title
Movie of Mercury passing across the disk of the Sun.   3386   Mercury Transit from SOHO/MDI
We begin our flight through the loops, noting that the more prominent regions on the surface have a higher density of field lines.   3346   Grand Tour of the Coronal Loops Model
Opening with a view of the Sun visible from SOHO, we move around to the eastern limb (as seen from Earth) where we see the farside data constructed by helioseismology studies.   During the movie, several sunspot groups move from the farside to the Earthside of the Sun.   3336   The Visible Sun Revisited
Another angle of the model showing a number of active regions.   3287   Rotating Tour of Solar Coronal Loops
This is a stereo version of the movie.  Note the stereo appearance is not that effective because of the predominant green coloration of the movie.<img src='/images/stereoicon.png'>   3286   Flight through the Coronal Loops
