1. MEETING: Heliophysics 2050 Workshop Community Announcement

NASA, NSF, and NOAA are pleased to announce the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop.

This workshop will be an agency-enabled, community-driven event to examine long-term goals as well as helping the community prepare for the next Solar and Space Physics Decadal Survey.

The workshop is being planned for an in-person venue, with on-line participation options, the week of August 3, 2020. Due to the current situation and travel restrictions, secondary options of an all-virtual workshop and a meeting delay are also being considered.

This workshop will focus on discussing a strategic, multi-decadal science framework for solar and space physics. It is anticipated that conference proceedings will be published for community members to leverage in framing their own white papers to the Decadal Survey process. The community will create a cohesive science strategy that will enable the ability to:

   1. Identify essential science investigations necessary for major advancements in solar and space physics.

   2. Use the desired investigations to identify the research and capability development needed to meet the requirements of these missions.

   3. Recognize research needed in the next decade to prepare for the long-term research goals.

   4. Recognize work needed to ensure a pipeline from basic research to pre-application research and then into operational needs, including the operations-to-research loop that strengthens forecasting and other predictive capabilities.

A Science Organizing Committee (SOC) will be formed from community members to help manage the workshop. The SOC will help organize the workshop schedule, including planning the sessions, sorting the abstracts, and managing the workshop discussions. These individuals will also serve as editors for the proceedings document resulting from the workshop.

As part of workshop preparation, short community white papers will be solicited. Those white papers will be used by the SOC to plan the workshop sessions and focus those discussions.

Further information will be released via community announcements over the next few weeks.

Please contact Jared Leisner (jared.s.leisner at nasa.gov) with any questions.

6. MEETING: MUAN 2020: Upper Atmospheres and Ionospheres in the Inner Solar System, September 9-11, 2020, New York, New York

This three-day workshop will bring together scientists interested in the general dynamics of, and coupling between, ionized and neutral atmospheric constituents of three key inner Solar System planets: Mars, Earth, and Venus. Other bodies, such as comets and moons are also welcome. The objective is to embrace comparative studies between different planetary bodies in addition to the usual Mars aeronomy and plasma physics discussions, as this will lead to a better understanding of the role of upper atmospheres on planetary evolution and habitability at Mars and in the Solar System.

The main topics for discussion are:

- Planetary aeronomy - past, present and future.

- Thermosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere-exosphere (TIME) coupling.

- Lower-upper atmosphere connections.

A significant part of the workshop will be devoted to brainstorming and opportunities to discuss different science aspects, and to help establish fruitful collaborations.

Our workshop will be hosted by Columbia University in New York City, with opportunities to present posters or talks. The workshop will be limited to 100 attendees, so to aid us in planning, we encourage all those interested to please indicate your interest here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdVgrQ8cIQx8mOgF5rVV76Re6hh6u1_xwtK4XXhKSpVSOU2_A/viewform

9. MEETING. 2nd Interstellar Probe Session at the (virtual) EPSC 2020 ( Abstracts Due 24 June 13:00 CEST)

For the second year in a row the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) is hosting a session on the science enabled by an Interstellar Probe to the Interstellar Medium and its implementation. Please consider submitting your work on the current state of understanding, outstanding science question, design concepts, enabling technologies, programmatic challenges and more.

With the new efficient virtual format we look forward  to another successful session this year. (Please see

Session Link (including abstract submission):

Abstract Deadline: 13:00 CEST 24 June 2020

Session Title: Interstellar Probe: Pushing the Boundaries of Space Science

Session Description: The global nature of the interaction of our heliosphere and the Local Interstellar Medium (LISM) remains one of the most outstanding space physics problems of today. Voyager 1 and 2 are nearing their end of operations well inside of 200 AU and have uncovered a completely new regime of physical interactions. Anomalous Cosmic Rays (ACR) are not accelerated at the Termination Shock as anticipated, the force upholding the heliosheath against the LISM has eluded the in-situ measurements, significant shielding of Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) appears in an extremely thin boundary layer at the Heliopause (HP), UV observations reveal a surprisingly dense wall of neutral hydrogen outside of the heliosphere, and the entire magnetic topology even well beyond the HP goes against all previous expectations. At the same time, IBEX and Cassini have obtained complementary "inside-out" ENA images of the heliospheric boundary region that cannot be fully explained.

An Interstellar Probe through the boundaries of the heliosphere, in to the LISM would be the first dedicated mission to venture into this largely unexplored frontier of space. With a dedicated suite of in-situ and remote-sensing instrumentation, such a probe would not only open the door for this new regime of space physics, but would also send us back the very first images from the outside of the global structure of the heliosphere that, in context with the in-situ measurements, would enable a quantum leap in understanding the global nature of our own habitable astrosphere.

Traveling beyond the HP would offer the first sampling of the properties of the Local Interstellar Cloud and interstellar dust that are completely new scientific territories. As such, an Interstellar Probe would represent humanity's first step in to the galaxy and become the furthest space exploration ever undertaken.

Relatively modest contributions from the Planetary Sciences and Astrophysics would offer historic science returns, including a flyby of one or two Kuiper Belt Objects, first insights in to the structure of the circum-solar dust disk, and the first measurements of the Extra-galactic Background Light beyond the obscuring Zodiacal cloud.

Although the idea of an Interstellar Probe has been discussed and studied since 1960, the lack of propulsion technologies and launch vehicles have presented a stumbling block to realize these concepts. With recent developments of conventional launch vehicle and kick stages, this bottleneck is being removed. Several international ongoing studies are developing realistic mission concepts using available or near-term technology, including the Pragmatic Interstellar Probe Study funded by NASA, the Interstellar Heliopause Probe project in Europe, and a study of dual probes to the boundaries of the Heliosphere under the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

This session welcomes discussions on the current state of understanding and outstanding science questions that could be addressed by missions to the LISM, and reports on realistic design concepts, enabling technologies, and programmatic challenges.
