Solar Orbiter Community building Webinars 

 

Solar Orbiter community building webinars are aimed at the solar and space physics communities as a whole.
They aim is to provide recent news and insights on the Solar Orbiter operations and science.

They will be held on Webex on the 1st Wednesday of every month, at 2:00pm European Central Time.
