Solar & Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)
• A cooperative effort between the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA.
• Designed to study the internal structure of the Sun, its outer atmosphere and the origin of the solar wind.
Findings: • Providing temperature structure. • Measuring the acceleration of the slow and
fast solar wind. • Discovering new dynamic solar phenomena. • Revolutionizing our ability to forecast space
weather.
