Three-dimensional image of the Sun.

These explosions create cloud energy, cause magnetic storms, disconnect power lines and interrupt communications. This study tour will help scientists predict storms from the future.

Mr. Mike Kaiser, an expert on Stereo projects at NASA's Goddard Space Travel Center, said: "Through Stereo missions, we want to find out how CME is formed and moving in the Solar System."

This mission launched two spacecraft with Delta-2 missiles from Cape Canaveral, Florida. These two spacecraft will access the orbit of the Sun, one in front of the other to produce three-dimensional images.

Great concern

Explosions occur when material "rings" above the surface of the sun suddenly explode, tossing hot lava thousands of degrees C into the air.

This lava is made up of hydrogen and helium. A CME explosion contains billions of tons of this material and moves away from the sun at a speed of 400 km / sec. Most of these cases have nothing to do with the Earth, but some are pointing towards our planet.

Projecting a storm to be moved by them can help predict the storm from having a defensive measure. Currently, Sun observation stations are very difficult to determine the exact direction of the CME.

By using two spacecraft on orbit to observe the Solar System, scientists can immediately identify when the lava cloud moves toward the earth. On each spacecraft there are 16 astronomical instruments such as telescopes, and devices for CME particle analysis.
