@TrueHamal - it's brand-new science and difficult to understand (even for me)... but at the edge of interstellar space where the solar wind bumps up against the interstellar stream, solar and interstellar particles collide in the form of an energized ribbon. Six months ago, this ribbon was all coiled up... now it's straightened out. So lots of interesting things are happening tens of billions of miles away from Earth. =)
@c1arknova - indeed it is... all the particles bounced back from the heliosheath are coming from different directions, so it takes a tremendous amount of calculations to reverse engineer the points of origin.
Well, now I did undestand better, yeah, but I stilI don´t know the changes, wich are.
Thanks anyway, man. A good work.

Calculating that projection is fantastically tricky. My hat's off to the IBEX team.
Thanks for uploading this as well.
