The Sun in Stereo? Cool

SEE THE SUN as if you were flying up on it, and you had special cameras and 3-D glasses on. COOL!

Umm, and you wouldn't burn up due to the insane heat or the radiating solar winds because you were protected, and you could come back and have dinner with your family. OK, you weren't flying up to it, you were taking an extremely long-distance image of it, but it beats burning up. Oh, just look at the pictures!

STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is the third mission in NASA's Solar Terrestrial Probes program (STP).
