The Sun in Three Dimensions

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

To understand the Sun in three dimensions, NASA launched the STEREO satellites. These twin spacecraft work like a pair of eyes, giving us a stereoscopic view of the Sun's dynamic surface. This perspective helps scientists better predict events like coronal mass ejections and solar flares, which can impact Earth, satellites, and astronauts.
