Scientific paper

The TRACE Observatory is a small solar satellite in NASA's Small Explorer series. Launched April 2, 1998, it is providing views of the solar transition region and low corona with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. The corona is now seen to be highly filamented, and filled with flows and with dynamic processes. Structure is seen down to the resolution limit of the instruments, while variability and motions are observed at all spatial locations in the solar atmosphere, and on very short timescales. Falres and shock waves are observed, and the formation of long-lived coronal structures, with consequent implications for coronal heating models, has been seen. In this overview, we will describe the satellite and show some preliminary results from the first six months of operation.
