  • In the table, A and B refer to the STEREO Ahead and Behind spacecraft, respectively. The default plot backgrounds are black. For a version of each plot with a white background, click on (w) next to the corresponding spacecraft identifier.
  • STEREO Beacon data are real-time "ESTIMATED"data processed for operational use. Do not cite.
  • The plots update as follows: 6-hr and 24-hr web pages refresh every 60 seconds. Fresh plots (i.e. .GIF files) are created every 2 minutes. The data used to generate the plots is updated every 2 minutes, so the fastest real refresh is greater than 2 minutes. As each of the steps is independent, it is possible the data latency will around 4 minutes in addition to any processing time at the STEREO Science Center.
  • 3-day and 7-day web pages are refreshed every 5 minutes. The plots are created once each hour, with data that has been updated at a 2 minute cadence. The latency of these plots can be as much as 67 minutes plus any processing time at the STEREO Science Center.
