Hinode-rise~ Hinode-set~ Swiftly flow the days~

Hinode, also called "Solar-B", a Japanese-U.S.-U.K. satelite which carries a solar optical telescope, and an X-ray telescope, and an extreme ultraviolet imaging spectrometer to observe changes in intense solar activity. The satelite's mission is to observe the sun's magnetic field activity related to solar flares and coronal mass ejections. It was launched on Sept. 23, 2006, from Japan’s Uchinoura Space Center by an M-5 rocket into a "Sun-synchronous Earth orbit" which means that the satellite continuously kept in sunlight. The name "Hinode" is the Japanese word for “sunrise.” Hinode was the first satelite to discover magnetic waves in the solar chromosphere that drive the solar wind.

Read about the latest discovery made by Hinode which observed "fountainlike jets of hot gas" that shoot into the sun’s outer atmosphere which may explain why this outlying region is millions of degrees hotter than the sun’s roiling surface http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/68449/title/Superhot_solar_mystery_may_be_solved
