Yohkoh observed the Sun virtually continuously between August 1991 and December 2001, covering nearly a complete solar cycle. Among the instruments on board was the Soft X-ray Telescope (SXT), which gave us fresh perspectives on the dynamic nature of the solar corona. Data from Yohkoh, and from SXT in particular, are helping us undertstand the nature of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). Although CMEs were a topic of interest from the start of the mission, major progress in relating Yohkoh observations to CMEs began in late 1996, following the start of observations of CMEs with the instruments on board the SOHO satellite. Since then we have learned much by combining the direct and indirect observations of CMEs from SOHO, with the coronal observations from SXT. We now have both an improved understanding of, and new questions about: the coronal source regions of CMEs, the nature of the material ejected in CMEs, the relation between CMEs and soft X-ray flares, and the underlying mechanism driving general solar eruptions.
