The development of helioseismology as a forefront area of solar and stellar astronomy has been fascinating to watch. Helioseismology takes full advantage of the benefits of lots of photons and a spatially resolved target. These allow measurement of tiny amplitude photospheric velocity and flux variations, and the precise identification of the oscillation modes corresponding to each observed frequency.
