Developed as part of the ESA/NASA Helioviewer Project, it provides a desktop program that enables users to call up images of the Sun from the past 15 years.

More than a million images from SOHO can already be accessed, and new images from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory are being added every day. A prominence arcs up from the solar surface. Using this new software, users can create their own movies of the Sun, colour the images as they wish, and image-process the movies in real time. A prominence twists above the solar surface.
