Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) instrument suite

The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) instrument suite consists of specialized tools that monitor the Sun and its outer atmosphere. These instruments observe solar activities like sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections, providing data on the Sun’s magnetic field, solar wind, and energetic particles. By analyzing these phenomena, scientists can better understand how the Sun affects space weather and Earth's environment. SOHO's suite includes cameras, spectrometers, and magnetometers, all working together to deliver continuous, high-resolution observations critical for solar research and space weather forecasting.
