STEREO - Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory
STEREO is a solar observation mission using two almost identical space-based observatories - one before and one after the Earth, In orbit of the planet - to make the first stereoscopic measurements in the investigation of the Sun and the nature of its coronal mass eruptions (CME).
On this page you can watch the latest images received from beacons of the SECCHI. Telemetry for space-time sent by the spacecraft of the STEREO 24 hours a day, is a highly stream of data with low resolution. These data are used for prediction of magnetic storms. Because of the high compression, these images are of much lower quality than actual research.
