Scientific paper
Ground-based and Skylab coronagraph observations are used to trace a coronal loop transient from its inception near the surface to a distance of 5 solar radii. Events in the lower solar atmosphere associated with this feature are outlined chronologically, and its physical appearance is described. The densities, mass, and energy of the transient are estimated, its shape is determined, and its typical and atypical characteristics are noted. It is inferred that this transient was caused by the emergence of an active region. It is shown that it was not immediately preceded by a flare and that the material at its leading edge did not decelerate appreciably, even at approximately 5 solar radii.
