What's New at NASA?
NASA's Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) satellites have provided the first three-dimensional images of the sun. For the first time, we can see structures in the sun's atmosphere in three dimensions.
You can be one of the first to see NASA's new images. Visit the EnCounter downstairs in the Exploration Gallery and participate in hands-on experiences, view the latest videos, and see the images that are beaming down in STEREO!
To view this correctly, you must have 3D glasses.
