Space projections on solar-terrestrial physics

Abstract

An overview of the current status of research in the field of solar-terrestrial physics conducted by space agencies of various countries is given. The main results of current (Ulysses, SOHO, TRACE, RHESSI, Hinode, and STEREO) and completed (Coronas-F and others) missions as well as the scientific goals and objectives of space projects being prepared and planned (SDO, Solar Probe, Solar Orbiter, Resonance, Interheliosonde, and others) are presented. The space projects are considered in the context of problems of the Sun—Earth system.
