SOLAR
TERRESTRIAL RELATIONS OBSERVATORY (STEREO) MISSION
 STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is a 2-year
mission employing two nearly identical observatories
to provide 3-D measurements of the Sun to study the nature
of coronal mass ejections. These powerful eruptions are a
major source of the magnetic disruptions on Earth and a key
component of space weather, which can greatly affect satellite
operations, communications, power systems, the lives of humans
in space, and global climate. (Launch Date: 10/25/06)
