Me: *lamenting that I haven’t caught any amazing flares with the IRIS satellite lately*

My fiancé who’s been directing that satellite a lot longer than me: “You sweet solar maximum child.”

A vibrant montage celebrating ten years of the SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) mission.  The image showcases a diverse collection of stunning solar images captured by SOHO's twelve instruments, highlighting solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and the sun's internal structure.  The collage is framed by a radiant depiction of the sun, emphasizing SOHO's unique vantage point at the Earth-Sun Lagrange point.

Flaring was moderate, but the most fun came from filaments erupting from the east and west limbs. Loads of groovy twists and swirls as magnetic forces drove giant plasma ropes dancing into space. 🌞✨

Stay tuned for more solar action! 🔥🌌

FURST launched on Sept 3, 2024, at 13:21 MDT from White Sands Missile Range. While a severe stray light issue rendered the data unusable, the problem is now well understood. We've charted a path forward and submitted a reflight proposal. Go #FURST! 🚀☀️✨ #sunscience #solarphysics #heliophysics #rocket
