After nearly a decade of flare observations from the Solar Maximum Mission ( SMM ) the time has come to pause to review what has been accomplished and to identify the problems that remain to be solved. SMM has not only produced a comprehensive database on a variety of active-Sun phenomena but also taught us how to coordinate observations with ground-based observatories and other spacecraft to produce a more holistic view of the complex energy release and transport processes that we call a flare. SMM had a unique combination of four imaging instruments which emphasized the spectroscopy of the solar atmosphere. They were the Hard X-ray Imaging Spectrometer, the Bent Crystal Spectrometer, the Flat Crystal Spectrometer, and the Ultraviolet Spectrometer/Polarimeter. To illustrate the power of these instruments, this paper will describe the results of various studies of energy release, transport, and deposition phenomena during the onset of flares.
