The Multiview Observatory for Solar Terrestrial Science (MOST)
The large-scale MOST mission will measure solar variability in the solar interior, atmosphere, and the interplanetary (IP) medium as part of the next generation Heliophysics System Observatory. MOST is a 4-spacecraft mission located at, and in the vicinity of, Sun-Earth L4 and L5. A novel radio package to measure Faraday rotation in will accompany 6 remote-sensing and 3 in situ instruments.
