The MESSENGER-BepiColombo meeting on "From MESSENGER to BepiColombo – science goals revisited?" continues the tradition of joint science meetings between the MESSENGER and BepiColombo teams. Held at DLR in Berlin Germany from 16-18 June 2015 the joint science meeting will be focused on three major themes.
