M any of the solar images were produced by the various instrument teams on the SOHO spacecraft. Use of SOHO images for public education efforts and non-commercial purposes is strongly encouraged and requires no expressed authorizlocated ation. Please ask which images are Soho images if you are thinking of using them.

Our thanks to NASA, NASA/JPL, and numerous crews on NASA space missions for many fabulous images they have let us use. Again ask before using our iamge because not all of the pictures of the Sun are from NASA.
