NASA - The Entire Sun in STEREO
We can now see more of the sun than ever before.
Launched in October 2006, STEREO traces the flow of energy and matter from the sun to Earth. It also provides unique and revolutionary views of the sun-Earth system. STEREO has given us the first view of the entire sun on February 6, 2011 and when coupled with SDO, will give us complete views of the sun's entire surface and atmosphere for the next 8 years.

I heard a rumor recently and was able to confirm it a bit tonight. It would appear that there will soon be a new miniseries on Nickelodeon set in the Avatar universe. You can learn more about it at the Avatar Wiki.
