23-Jun-06 | Next launch
The next Delta II launch will be NASA’s STEREO mission, expected no earlier than 22 July. STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is a pair of identical solar-imaging satellites that will be placed in widely separated orbits using a series of lunar swingbys. This placement will allow, for the first time, stereoscopic (hence the acronym) three-dimensional images of coronal mass ejections.
