\nSolar Orbiter is a 7-years mission dedicated to the study the Sun and its environment. The aim of the mission is to perform detailed measurements of the inner heliosphere and the nascent solar winds, and also to make close observations of the polar regions of the Sun, which have never been observed before.<\/p>\n

SITAEL delivered its technology for various core instruments of the satellite.<\/p>\n
