STEREO Science Objectives• Understand the causes and physics of Coronal Mass Ejections
(CMEs)
• Track how CMEs move through space
• Discover the sources of dangerous solar energetic particles (SEPs)
• Map the 3D structure of the solar wind

STEREO Imagers (SECCHI)
EUVI – Extreme Ultraviolet images
Cor1 and Cor2 – Coronagraphs
Heliospheric Imagers (HI), imaging the rest of the way from the Sun to Earth orbit

What would people use/like?
Flat screen movies showing rotating sun at particular time.•Produce after press conference? •Wavebands? •Number of frames in revolution?•Movie Format (frames, mpg, etc.)?
Projected Maps – good for wrapping over spheres.SOS uses series of these to make movies. Smart phone apps use individual ones for their zoom & pan displays•Anyone else want these?
