Figure 1: The extension of the concept of “geophysical” into “heliophysical”.

The tradition of intl. science years began almost 125 years ago with the first intl. scintfc. studies of polar processes in

1983-3 A second Intl. Polar Year (IPY) was

organized in 1932, but a worldwide economic depression curtailed many of the planned activities.


IGY in 1957 was an unprecedented success on many levels.

IHY will continue the legacy of this previous events extending global synoptic studies,

and global interconnected processes to the rest of the heliosphere.


IHY OVERVIEW Space is a part of world’s cultural heritage.

It has inspired generations of artists, poets, scientists and musicians.

Throughout history, societies have admired and searched for meaning in the same night sky.

Indeed, space exploration can help bring cultures together.Kofi Annan, UN Sect.-Gen, World Space Week, 2001


IHY Goals and Objectives A broadening of the concept “geophysical”,

extending the connections from the Earth to the Sun and interplanetary space.

On the 50th anniversary of the IGY, the 2007, IHY activities will build on the success of IGY by continuing its legacy of system-wide studies of the extended heliophysical domain.

IHY CIP

The principal mechanism for coordinating scientific activities for IHY is that of Coordinated Investigation Programmes - CIPs. In keeping with the bottom-up approach of IHY as a whole this is an open mechanism by which researchers can propose activities that require, or would benefit from, coordinated use of facilities, whether space-based or ground-based instruments, observatories, models or other supporting research activities.
