The Sun

Description

NASA's Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) Ahead and Behind spacecraft, together with images from NASA's Solar Dynamic Observatory (SDO) satellite were used by NASA to create a complete map of the sun, including the far side of the Sun. This is the first ever 360 degree view of a star.
