This EIT 171 Å image shows emission from ionised iron at about 1 million degrees C, revealing diffuse corona and magnetic loops.


An impressive double set of CMEs observed by LASCO C2, with an EIT 304 Å inset in the middle.


This fiery Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) shows stunning details in the ejected material.

A sequence of LASCO C2 images showing the evolution of a Coronal Mass Ejection over a time span of about an hour


A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) observed by LASCO C3


This "lightbulb" Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) shows the classical parts of a CME: leading edge, void, and core.

An Earth-directed Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) seen by LASCO C3.


This EIT 171 Å image shows a wide variety of loops and active regions (lighter areas on the surface)


This EIT 195 Å series shows evolving loops stretched out above the edge of the Sun


An EIT 304 Å image showing an unusual collection of prominences


These EIT composite images show the passage of Mercury across EIT's field-of-view during the transit on 7 May 2003.

This combination of an EIT 195 Å image and a computed cutaway model of the Sun's interior shows "peculiarities" in the sound speed compared with theoretical models.

A particularly beautiful erupting prominence seen by EIT in 304 Å emission


An "EIT colour wheel", showing images in the four filters of EIT. Clockwise from upper left: 171 Å, 304 Å, 284 Å, 195 Å.

This magnificent erupting prominence was captured by EIT in 304 Å emission.
More about this


Composite image with three EIT wavelengths (171 Å, 195 Å and 284 Å) combined to show solar features unique to each wavelength.


These three images show the incredible changes in the Sun's corona from near solar minimum to near solar maximum.


Two large eruptive prominences captured by EIT in 304 Å emission.
