A picture released by the NASA on February 6, 2011 shows an artist's concept of STEREO spacecraft surrounding the Sun. On Feb. 6th, NASA's twin STEREO probes moved into position on opposite sides of the sun, and they are now beaming back uninterrupted images of the entire star—front and back. "For the first time ever, we can watch solar activity in its full 3-dimensional glory," says Angelos Vourlidas, a member of the STEREO science team at the Naval Research Lab in Washington, DC. Four years after launch NASA's two STEREO spacecraft are now 180 degrees apart and able to image the entire Sun. AFP PHOTO / NASA
