STEREO - The Sun from Two Points of View

Abstract

NASA's STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) mission continues its investigations into the three dimensional structure of the sun and heliosphere. With the recent increases in solar activity STEREO is yielding new results obtained using the mission's full array of imaging and in-situ instrumentation, and in February 2011 the two spacecraft will be 180 degrees apart allowing us to directly image the entire solar disk for the first time. We will discuss the latest results from STEREO and how they change our view of solar activity and its effects on our solar system
