360 View of the Sun
Two STEREO Satellites, launched in 2006, finally completed their journey together around the Sun to give NASA a full 360 degree view of it. Previously, they were only able to view the side facing us for Solar Weather, while this weather could form on the other side and rotate to face us. This could potentially cause an unexpected storm to interfere with power and communications. Thankfully, NASA has eliminated this threat.
