The EIT instrument is witnessing here the beginning of a spectacular chain of
events. Initiating with an explosive flare, a density wave is propagates across the solar
surface.Shortly afterwards, the LASCO-telescopes observe a major mass ejection
being launched in direction towards the Earth.The associated magnetic
cloud reaches the Earth three days later and there causes a perturbation of
its magnetosphere, a so-called magnetic storm.The movie shows
running differences between successively taken images.This technique is
particularly sensitive to temporal changes in the images.The primary images
were recorded at a wave length of 19.5 nm due to emissions
of chromospheric Fe XII ions.

The halo-event from the 7th April 1996 as seen by LASCO-C2
in white light. The sequence of images shows difference images relative to a reference
image taken at the beginning of the sequence.
