    Hi Olivia,

    I know that we have seen relatively high density regions in Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) that we think might be prominences as far out as Earth. It is possible that a spacecraft that has gone out further, like Ulysses or the Voyagers, might have detected something further out, but I don't know about that.

    cheers,

    Terry
