Full Sun at 195 Angstroms from SOHO-EIT. 2402 First Flare movie for the RHESSI instrument (speed 105x normal) 01:00:35:00  -   01:01:23:21
First flare location fades as second flash is on the rise. 2403 First Flare movie for the RHESSI instrument (speed 52x normal) 01:01:40:00  -   01:03:00:00
X-rays from the second portion of this flare event. 2404 First Flare movie for the RHESSI instrument (speed 26x normal) 01:03:20:00  -   01:05:44:16
TRACE emission brightens in RHESSI 12-25keV contours and new RHESSI emission at 50-100keV appears on the solar surface. 2458 RHESSI Observes the Flare over AR9906 - Time Tagged 01:06:00:00  -   01:07:16:00
Initial appearance of emission in 12-25 keV. 2459 RHESSI Observes the Flare over AR9906 - No time tags 01:07:35:00  -   01:08:51:15
Upflow viewed in TRACE appears at the center of the RHESSI emission. 2460 RHESSI Observes the Flare over AR9906 - zoom with times 01:09:10:00  -   01:10:24:00
RHESSI emission expands to an arc, apparently around the limb of the Sun. 2461 RHESSI Observes the Flare over AR9906 - zoom without times 01:10:40:00  -   01:11:52:15
Last gasps of x-ray emission from this flare. 2462 RHESSI Observes the Flare over AR9906 - rotate view with times 01:12:10:00  -   01:13:23:00
Initial appearance of emission in 12-25 keV. 2463 RHESSI Observes the Flare over AR9906 - rotate view without times 01:13:40:00  -   01:14:52:00

*Please note: the SVS does not fulfill requests for copies of the tapes in our library. On some of our animation pages, there is a direct link to a video distribution service from which tapes, handled by the Public Affairs Office (PAO)/Goddard TV, including some of our animations may be ordered. General information on this service can be found here.
