EUI causes a revolution in solar physics (EN - FR - NL)

On March 26, 2022, the Solar Orbiter satellite came closer to the Sun than ever before. The images of this closest approach taken by the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager on board will revolutionize solar physics! 

A patchwork image of the Sun (EN - NL - FR)

On 7 March, 2022, the high-resolution telescope of the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager (EUI) onboard the Solar Orbiter spacecraft made a mosaic image of the solar disk.

Solar Orbiter catches a second comet by the tail

For a spacecraft designed to conduct unique studies of the Sun, Solar Orbiter is also making a name for itself exploring comets. 

Solar Orbiter returns to Earth for a last goodbye (EN - NL - FR)

On 27 November 2021, the Solar Orbiter spacecraft returns from its voyages in deep space, and will pass at only a few hundred kilometers above the Earth's surface. This manoeuvre is needed to get Solar Orbiter in a new orbit to go yet closer to the Sun. During this flyby, Solar Orbiter unfortunately needs to cross the clouds of space junk that surround Earth, making it a risky visit to our planet.
