Yohkoh -- A Decade of Discovery

The Yohkoh mission is celebrating its tenth anniversary in the autumn of 2001; the spacecraft was launched from Kagoshima, Japan, on August 30, 1991, and continues functioning in good health to this day, after acquiring more than six million solar images. Press releases helping to commemorate the anniversary were produced by ISAS, NASA, and PPARC, on September 10, 2001.
