Scientific paper

We have proposed a comprehensive suite of imaging telescopes for the NASA STEREO mission. The SECCHI (Sun Earth Connection Coronal and Heliospheric Investigation) will observe coronal mass ejections from their birth at the Sun and following them as they propagate into the heliosphere and ultimately impact Earth. The instrumentation consists of an EUV multilayer imager with passbands similar to those on SOHO/EIT and Trace, an internally occulted visible-light coronagraph, an externally occulted visible-light coronagraph and two very wide field telescopes looking at the Sun-Earth region. The scientific investigation will be described in more detail.
