These two pictures were captured on Monday, 16th August 2010 and 23rd January 2010 by NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). SOHO was launched in 1995 to study the Sun and is a joint venture between the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA and is slated to continue its mission until December 2012. The objects observed seem to appear and move in different positions around the Sun and seemed to be as large as our planet Earth.
