Abstract
The Metis instrument is a coronagraph mounted onboard of the European Space Agency Solar Orbiter mission to be launched in 2020.
The selected mission profile will bring the Solar Orbiter spacecraft as close to the Sun as 0.3 A.U., and up to 35°out-of-ecliptic providing a unique platform for helio-synchronous observations of the Sun and its polar regions.
Metis can simultaneously image the visible and ultraviolet emissions of the solar corona and diagnose, with unprecedented temporal coverage and spatial resolution, the structures and dynamics of the full corona in the field-of-view (FOV) range from 1.5° to 2.9°.
