This contribution describes our solar project at the Antarctic sites of Baia Terranova, South Pole and Dome-C. The project is based on a multi-level helioseismology analysis, aimed to study, for the first time, the local properties of the solar atmosphere. In addition, we plan to detect the presence of Alfvèn waves in and around the active regions, as an energy transfer vehicle from sunspots towards the corona. The technology used is the well known compact, stable, relatively unexpensive and still improving MOF (Magneto-Optical Filter).
