Jet formation is a widespread phenomenon in the universe. Jets have been identified is such widely disparate sites as AGNs, neutron stars and black holes, accreting hot subwards or white dwarfs and young stars embedded in cocoons of gas and dust. We propose here to study the structure and dynamics of jets in SS 433. This object affords us the best means of directly testing the physics of accretion disk formation and jet activity. Specifically, high spatial resolution images of SS 433 will reveal the presumed jets of material giving rise to the moving spectral features, definitely resolving fundamental questions on the overall geometry encompassing the ballistically flowing material. Sequential images taken at intervals of a few days will record the time development of the bursts of ejection relating to the short-lived spectral structure observed.
