9605c3hy  Comet Hyakutake in May 1996, as seen by LASCO-C3. The sequence of images shows difference images relative to a reference image taken at the beginning of the sequence. The diffuse dust tail and the radially outward directed plasma tail of the comet can clearly be distinguished. Some CMEs are visible on the Sun and also the contiuous flow of the slow solar wind in the solar equatorial plane. Note also the stars moving through the field of view. |
9612c2xm  A small sun grazing comet of the Kreutz group approaching the Sun and dissolving in the field of view of LASCO-C2. Several minor mass ejections and the continuous flow of the slow solar wind in the solar equatorial plane can be seen. The sequence of images shows difference images relative to a reference image taken at the beginning of the sequence. |
9612c3xm  On Christmas 1996 the Sun is passing the Milky Way. This event is monitored by LASCO-C3, of course with the Sun itself occulted. A small sun grazing comet of the Kreutz group is approaching the Sun and dissolves. Several minor mass ejections and the continuous flow of the slow solar wind in the solar equatorial plane can be seen. The sequence of images shows difference images relative to a reference image taken at the beginning of the sequence. |
