Time series of SXT images of a gigantic coronal jet of 11 January 1992 (Shibata et al. 1994, Ap. J. Lett. 431. L51). The footpoint of the jet is the "anemone-type" active region NOAA 7001. The size of each figure is 1200" x 1040" (about 8.6 x 10^5 km x 7.5 x 10^5 km). The surrounding region is a coronal hole. These are 2.7-s exposure time (negative) images through the SXT thin aluminum filter. North is at the top, West to the right. Please note the changes at the footpoint of the jet during its evolution.
