NASA will release online the first complete view of the sun's entire surface and atmosphere. Seeing the whole sun front and back simultaneously will enable significant advances in space weather forecasting for Earth, and improve planning for future robotic or crewed spacecraft missions throughout the solar system. The views are taken from two STEREO spacecraft on diametrically opposite sides of the sun, 180 degrees apart. [Source: NASA News]
