Abstract
A comprehensive series of VLBI (very-long-baseline interferometry) observations of SS433, carried out over an 11-day period on the European VLSI Network at 5 GHz, reveals the motion and evolution of a series of faint 'blobs' ejected from the system. These blobs are observed to brighten at a substantial distance from the binary star.
