abstract = "The Galileo Solar Space Telescope (GSST) is a cornerstone mission
to provide accurate measurements of the magnetic field in the
photosphere and outer layers of the solar atmosphere to be
proposed to the Brazilian Space Agency (AEB) within the
international effort to understand of the evolution of the
Heliosphere. The solar electromagnetic and corpuscular emissions
are strongly modulated by the evolution of the magnetic structure
of the solar atmosphere. The solar magnetism is driven by the
energy transport from the inner layers of the Sun to its
atmosphere. Although systematic observations since the invention
of the telescope have revealed several features related to the
evolution of solar activity, there is not a complete explanation
of the physical processes that lead to solar activity cyclic
variability and its long-term changes. Here we describe the status
of the proposal submitted to the INPE's Steering Committee. The
underlying basic questions to be addressed by the GSST mission
are: What are the fundamental physical/plasma processes at work in
the Sun? How does the solar dynamo work? What is the relative
contribution of different physical processes that lead to the
heating of the outer layers (Chromosphere to Corona)? What are the
effects of the magnetic structure of the outer layers of the Sun
on the evolution of the Earth's highly coupled atmosphere-ocean
system? What is the response of the magnetic field and energetic
particles in the vicinity of our planet, i.e. the Earths inner
magnetosphere region, due to different solar wind structures?
Taking into account these open scientific questions, the Galileo
Solar Space Telescope proposed mission is to perform solar
observations in high spatial and temporal resolution to
characterize the evolution of the magnetic structure of the
photosphere, chromosphere, transition region, and corona and its
impact on the Geospace. Specifically, the mission has three main
objectives: (1) Contribute to the understanding of the evolution
of the magnetic structure of the Sun; (2) Contribute to the
understanding of the Sun's influence on Earth's Climate; and, (3)
Contribute to the understanding of the Sun's impact on the
Geospace.",
