Scientific paper

The SOHO spacecraft was launched on 2 December 1995, some 8 years after it started to be developed by European industry. Since 14 February 1996, SOHO is in a halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1. It is continuously in view of the Sun, allowing uninterrupted sequences of observations of our star, a first in the development of solar physics. Its payload composed of 12 instruments is operating very successfully, providing for the first time a combined set of data on the whole of the Sun from the deep interior to the solar wind at L1, through the chromosphere and the corona. A brief history of the genesis and development of SOHO will be presented, as well as a general overview of the way the satellite and its payload perform. The most spectacular and recent results achieved by the payload will be mentioned and the future of the mission will be discussed.
