Information
about STEREO-A close approach to Earth, August 2023
Solar Orbiter perihelion passage, 8 January 2030
This figure shows the orbital configuration of STEREO Ahead (red) during
the perihelion passage of Solar Orbiter (orange) centered on 8 January
2030. The positions of Solar Orbiter are plotted at one
day intervals from five days before perihelion to five days after. The
sense of motion is counter-clockwise. During this short period, the motions of
STEREO and the planets are negligible in the Heliocentric Earth Ecliptic
coordinate system which follows Earth's orbital period.
Note that the projected location of STEREO Behind is also plotted.
However, that spacecraft is not currently operational. Follow
