Session title

Linking the Sun to the Heliosphere - the Solar Orbiter Mission

Description

Solar Orbiter will launch in 2020. It is unique in combining a near-Sun (<0.3 au) and out-of-ecliptic orbit (solar latitudes >20deg) with a payload making detailed measurements of the Sun and the solar wind through a combination of four in-situ and six remote-sensing instruments. Solar Orbiter represents a unique opportunity for the Solar Physics and MIST communities to come together to capitalise on solar and heliospheric science. At this last NAM before launch, our session aims to stimulate discussions between experts in remote-sensing observations, in-situ measurements, and related theory in preparation for Solar Orbiter.
