Summary
Abstract: The Solar Optical Universal Polarimeter (SOUP) experiment was flown in
July and August, 1985, on board the STS-51F/Spacelab II shuttle
mission. Images of solar features observed in white light were
recorded on film. The targets were solar pores, sunspots, upwellings,
active region AR 4682, and the structures along the solar limb. When
the film was returned to the investigator team and ... View entire text
