In ad- dition to instruments devoted to taking measurements of the local solar wind, the spacecraft carries a visible imager: the Wide-field Imager for Solar PRobe (WISPR). WISPR will take advantage of the proximity of the spacecraft to the Sun to perform local imaging of the near-Sun environment. WISPR will observe coronal structures at high spatial and time resolutions, although the observed plane-of-sky will rapidly change because of the fast transit at the perihelia. We present a concise description of the PSP mission, with particular regard to the WISPR instrument, discussing its main scientific goals, targets of observations, and outlining the possible synergies with current and upcoming space missions. 1. – The Parker Solar Probe mission Parker Solar Probe (PSP) is a historic NASA mission aiming to explore for the first time the near-Sun environment [1] (1). PSP was launched on 12 August 2018 on a Delta IV Heavy rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station for a seven-year-long mission.

The concept for a “Solar Probe” dates back to “Simpson’s Committee” of the Space Science Board (National Academy of Sciences, 24 October 1958) ‒ The need for extraordinary knowledge of Sun from remote observations, theory, and modeling to answer the questions: – Why is the solar corona so much hotter than the photosphere? – How is the solar wind accelerated? .

These gravity assists provide a rare opportunity to study the induced magnetosphere and solar-wind interaction at Venus using the instrumentation aboard PSP. These gravity assists provide a rare opportunity to study the current induced magnetosphere and solar-wind interaction at Venus using the instrumentation aboard PSP. Venus's upper atmosphere hosts several atomic species such as hydrogen, helium, oxygen, carbon, and argon, some of which are energized in the upper atmosphere to escape energies or ionized and carried away from the planet. What is special about Venus, as opposed to Mars, is that virtually all significant present-day atmospheric escape of heavy constituents is in the form of ions.
