IN STEREO

Launch of the STEREO satelite

On Wednesday, NASA launched twin spacecraft, each containing an instrument designed and built by UNH space scientists to study solar flares in a mission known by the acronym STEREO. These violent eruptions on the surface of the sun spew highly charged particles that can disrupt radio communications and power systems on earth. "The NASA STEREO mission, for the first time, will routinely take images of the extended solar atmosphere with remote imaging instruments on one STEREO spacecraft, while taking direct samples of the same solar wind parcel as it flows by the other STEREO spacecraft," says Antoinette "Toni" Galvin, the university's lead scientist on the project.
