By the way, looks like the spacecraft have just had their lunar flybys, and you can start to see their different paths evolve:

That's the first lunar flyby - B is now on its way - A will loop back one more time, get a flyby in about 35 days of the moon again - and head out the other direction.

Somewhere in their page is a link to an approximately weekly comissioning status report. All instruments have been activating nicely so far, though I think they generally aren't gathering data yet except the radio emissions spectrometer. They've had plots of that data up since almost immediately after launch, and the data from the two instruments is nearly identical..... except when first one spacecraft and then the other makes a periapsis pass through Earth's inner magnetosphere. Then back in the free-streaming solar wind, the data's nearly identical again.

Wonderful images, i'm really excited about this mission, more so than any other. Take a look at the High Res "Blue" image, incredible.. its at full resolution - 1800 x 1800 pixels, the others are "half res"

You can resize the red 304A TIFF up to 1800 x 1800 to get an idea of what they will look like too.

Ditto. But this still works: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/stereo/main/index.html -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.

The other STEREO websites are very outdated in terms of the latest information. That was the only one that kept up to date.
Hmmm seems none of the "nascom" sites are working. http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/ |

There appear to be images from STEREO posted now, but I have no idea what format they are in (fts), I tried downloading a file but couldn't open it with anything I have.

I can't seem to get to the data atm (only the home page loads and very slowly). I assume .fts will be some sort of fits format. I'll have a go at this this week if I can get anything off the site.
