The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) mission has significantly advanced our understanding of the Sun. This initiative aims to unravel the mysteries of solar dynamics, including the solar interior, the origin of the solar corona, and the mechanisms behind solar winds. Key accomplishments and scientific objectives include pinpointing the source and acceleration of solar wind and examining the heating process of the corona. Join us as we delve into the mission's timeline, spacecraft details, and essential resources to further comprehend our star.
