The first spacecraft designed to capture 3-D "stereo" views of the sun and solar wind have been shipped from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Md., to NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, Md., for their next round of pre-launch tests. http://www.stereo.jhuapl.edu/ |

Yup - two spacecraft launched together that separate after launch, and then they both use Lunar flybys - one a month after the other, to chuck one ahead of the Earth, and one behind.

Doug Oppsss, NASA is getting toys even most sophisticated to play with! It is seen that NASA is getting a mastery of fly-by to any celestial bodies. Rodolfo |
