In the space arena these developments stem from the launches and successful operation of the Wind, Geotail, SOHO, Polar, FAST, ACE, TRACE, IMAGE, and Cluster-ll missions. These missions have helped revolutionize solar physics, provide a new level of understanding of important processes in space plasma physics, and create a new basis for characterizing and predicting space weather.

The study will generate consensus recommendations from the solar and space physics community regarding a systems approach to theoretical, ground-based, and space-based research that encompasses the flight programs and focused campaigns of NASA, the ground-based and basic research programs of NSF, and the complementary operational programs of other agencies such as NOAA, DOD, and DOE. During this study, the community will survey solar and space physics and recommend priorities for the decade 2003-2013.

One important goal of these reports is to address the scientific foundation and priorities for the implementation of major NASA programs such as Living with a Star, SolarTerrestrial Probes, Solar Probe, and Interstellar Probe; and major NSF facilities such as the Relocatable Radar. In conducting its work, the CSSP would draw on an extensive history of prior studies performed by the Space Studies Board, including: · Astronomy and Astrophysics in the New Millennium (Astronomy and Astrophysics Survey Report t20011)
