STEREO: great recent mission, source of modern data. Consists of 2 satellites, improved coronagraphs and EUV instruments, stereoscopic views make for great 3d glasses movies!:  http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/

HINODE: modern optical (very high res and cadence) and xray imaging telescopes, has EUV spectrometer. The high cadence observations of photospheric granulation are really cool: http://solarb.msfc.nasa.gov/index.html

SOHO: Most productive solar astronomy satellite, lots of instruments including EIT, constantly observing since 1996 and still going: http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/

SDO: to be launched... will increase solar viewing capability dramatically: http://sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/

TRACE: high res EUV, produces great images of loops/dynamics: http://trace.lmsal.com/
