The SDO Outreach team really seem to have a handle on it, don't they? I think this will be a brilliant and very rewarding mission to follow - and that sales of solar viewing telescopes will rocket after tonight.

Or people might go ( like I did a while ago ) "Meh - not much point looking through a telescope with pics like this available"

Yeah, but then they actually *look* through a telescope, and see the prominences leaping off the Sun with their own eyes, and the Sun becomes... alive... I'm hoping to get a solar telescope set up at our solar system scale model in August - and planning on some big summer overtime to afford to buy a Coronado for myself, too :-)
