For many space missions first data usually comes after 6 months-1 year, but #SolarOrbiter is different: the time between data being received on Earth & it being released is at most 90 days!

#SolarOrbiter remote sensing instruments will only start nominal operations in Nov ’21, so their data will come later. But we already enjoyed a sneak peek earlier this year:

Are you ready to see #TheSunUpClose?
CALLING ALL MEDIA: We will reveal the first images taken by #SolarOrbiter, only 77 million km from the surface of the #Sun, during an online press briefing on 16 July 14:00 CEST / 13:00 BST.

“The first images are exceeding our expectations,” says Daniel Müller, ESA #SolarOrbiter Project Scientist. “We can already see hints of very interesting phenomena that we have not been able to observe in detail before.”

Bonus #science opportunity for #SolarOrbiter, which will cross through the tails of #Comet ATLAS in the next few days. The mission's 4 in-situ instruments will be switched on and collecting data during the encounter 👍 #weareallsolarorbiters

The commissioning of #SolarOrbiter has been proceeding over the past three months to ensure the spacecraft and instruments will be fully functional for the 1st close pass of the #Sun, to take place on 15 June, around 77 million km from our parent star.
Meanwhile, @einionyn noticed that #SolarOrbiter would pass through the ion tail of Comet ATLAS on 31 May-1 June + through the dust tail on 6 June. Fortuitously, the 4 in-situ instruments that measure the conditions around the spacecraft are also great for studying #comet tails!
DÍA 6 - Darmstadt, Frankfurt, Madrid, Bilbao
MARTES 11 DE FEBRERO (Día de la mujer y la niña en la ciencia)
Habitualmente ese día suelo tener preparado algo relacionado con mujeres en ciencia. Este año no ha sido así porque tuve que andar entre aviones de vuelta a casa.

Al final Ciara cesó momentáneamente su actividad, por lo que los vuelos no se vieron cancelados.
Puestos a pagar penalizaciones de vuelos -ya iba dos- elegí el horario que me permitiera salir más tarde y no tener que pegarme la madrugada padre.
First data from #SolarOrbiter science instruments have reached the ground! What did we learn from them? And what's next for our science teams? Check our latest news!

As the #SolarOrbiter boom was deployed last week, the @SolarOrbiterMAG data first reflected mostly the spacecraft magnetic field, eventually providing a first glimpse of the much weaker field in the surrounding environment 👍 #weareallsolarorbiters

@SolarOrbiterMAG The first #SolarOrbiter Magnetometer measurements of the interplanetary magnetic field, taken after the instrument boom deployment, more than one million km away from Earth, look good 👇 #weareallsolarorbiters

2/19 NASA’s @ParkerSunProbe goes even closer than @ESASolarOrbiter but samples particles, plasma & the solar wind – it doesn’t image the Sun’s surface, only snapping images looking away, while #SolarOrbiter peers forward – the 2 complement each other esa.int/Enabling_Suppo…
3/19 At its closest to the Sun, @ESASolarOrbiter must withstand sunshine 13 times more intense than Earth orbit. Imagine having to stand out under a cloudless sky filled with 13 separate Suns – the trick is to bring a sunshade with you #SolarOrbiter esa.int/Enabling_Suppo…
4/19 So @ESASolarOrbiter has taken shape as a largely ‘normal’ spacecraft, because it can take shelter behind an extremely powerful multi-layered heat shield, designed by @Thales_Alenia_S in Italy #SolarOrbiter esa.int/Enabling_Suppo…
Good morning! ☀️ Our #SolarOrbiter spacecraft is getting ready to leave #Europe on an Antonov cargo plane for its next stage of launch preparations at Cape Canaveral 👋 Here’s one of the last views before packing, taken earlier this month 👇
