APL-developed STEREO animations sizzle on the big screen in “3D Sun,” a digital 3-D film now showing at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, in Washington, D.C.. Mission scientists unveil STEREO’s 3-D images of the sun to help us understand why this fiery ball is so important to us. Moviegoers get a close-up view of auroras over the artic circle and take a ride on a solar blast from the sun’s surface to Earth.
