1996: On 2 May 1996, five months after its launch, the first SOHO results were presented by a team of scientists at ESA Headquarters in Paris.
These first results showed, for the first time from SOHO, the constant turmoil in the solar atmosphere even though the Sun appeared extremely quiet at the time to ground-based telescopes.
Scientists revealed a possible new way to forecast harmful ejections of gas from the Sun by spotting changes in the Sun's magnetism. They also demonstrated fluctuations in the solar wind carrying atomic particles from the Sun, revealed by the shape of a luminous cavity in interplanetary space.
Currents of gas flowing just below the Sun's visible surface, were shown for the first time by observations of solar oscillations.
