STEREO Panoramic View
The STEREO mission presents a new view of the space between the Earth and the Sun.

This view from the STEREO-A satellite, demonstrates the broad range of sky coverage by the five cameras of the SECCHI instrument.


This movie starts at a close-up of the Sun in ultraviolet from STEREO EUVI and pulls out to reveal the broad sky coverage of the Heliospheric Imager (HI) cameras.    This movie starts at a close-up of the Sun in ultraviolet from STEREO EUVI and pulls out to reveal the broad sky coverage of the Heliospheric Imager (HI) cameras.

We expand the view again to show the coverage of the HI-1 camera to the left of the Sun. The dust corona is prominent on the right side of the image. The planet Venus saturates the vertical pixels in the detector, creating a bright line above and below the planet itself.    We expand the view again to show the coverage of the HI-1 camera to the left of the Sun.

We finally bring in the view of the HI-2 instrument which shows the outer regions of the dust corona and stars. Some constellations are visible. The dark region on the left side of the image is part of the 'Earth Occulter' in the HI-2 instrument.    We finally bring in the view of the HI-2 instrument which shows the outer regions of the dust corona and stars.
