| This simulated rotation movie is based on seven spectroheliograms taken on successive days in 1925 between July 7 and July 13. It shows that many features last more than 24 hours. | |||||||||||||||||

| This simulated rotation shows the magnetic field as viewed from a position 60 degrees above the solar equator. The Solar Polar Imager mission under study by NASA would provide magnetograms from this viewing angle. This is a 5.0 MB quicktime movie file. | |||||||||||||||||

AGU Dec. 2004 Powerpoint: A presentation given at the AGU 2004 winter meeting can be downloaded. One version uses a 130Mbyte avi Movietone clip from 1930. A second version uses a 20 Mbyte avi of the movie clip. Both video clips are played from inside the powerpoint presentation.
