Heliophysics
Heliophysics: Seeking to understand the Sun and its interactions with the Earth and solar system.
These presentations communicate various topics in Heliophysics on the Hyperwall.
 | Coronal Mass Ejections Blast their Way Through the Solar System: This visualization shows a coronal mass ejection erupt from the Sun and propagate out through the Solar System. Along the way it is detected by the spacecraft at Jupiter and Saturn. Downloads: |
 | Big Sunspot 1520 Releases X1.4 Class Flare: An X1.4 class flare erupted from the center of the sun, peaking on July 12, 2012 at 12:52 PM EDT. It erupted from Active Region 1520 which rotated into view on July 6. Downloads: |
 | The 2012 Earth-Orbiting Heliophysics Fleet: Here is a tour of the NASA Near-Earth Heliophysics fleet, covering the space from near-Earth orbit out to the orbit of the Moon. The satellite orbits are color coded for their observing program. Downloads: |
 | First 3-D stereo from STEREO: EUVI 171 Ångstroms (Active Region): This movie shows the Sun from the two STEREO spacecraft using the 171 Å filter in the Extreme UltraViolet Imager (EUVI). New regions of solar activity come into view as the Sun rotates left to right. Downloads: |
 | Solar Dynamics Observatory - Atmospheric Imaging Assembly: This image sequence was captured on June 7, 2011, from an M-2 flare which occurred on the Sun and released a very large coronal mass ejection (CME). Downloads: |
 | SDO Year 2 Highlights: This video highlights just some of the amazing events witnessed in Solar Dynamics Observatory's (SDO) second year. April 21, 2012 marks the two-year anniversary of SDO. Downloads: |
 | Incredible Solar Flare, Prominence Eruption and CME Event (211 Ångstroms): On June 7, 2011, an M-2 flare occurred on the Sun which released a very large coronal mass ejection (CME). Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) captured this image sequence at one minute intervals and is designed to play animations synchronously. Downloads: |
 | Our Incredible Sun: On June 7, 2011, a solar flare on the Sun released a very large coronal mass ejection. Watch the eruption as observed by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. Downloads: |
 | WORLD OF CHANGE - Solar Activity: Images of sunspots and UV brightness document the 11-year cycle of solar magnetic activity. The series spans 1999–2010, capturing the most recent solar maximum and minimum, as well as the emergence of solar cycle 24. Downloads: |
 | Hinode Views Annular Solar Eclipse: This image from the X-Ray Telescope (XRT) on the Japanese Hinode satellite captures the Sun’s surface during an annular eclipse that took place on January 4, 2011 and was visible after sunrise over most of Europe, northwestern and South Asia. Downloads: |
 | STEREO Tracks a Coronal Mass Ejection From Origin to Earth Impact : Every so often a massive burst of superhot plasma rises up from the Sun’s corona, expanding outward as it rises. Downloads: |
