The Town Hall Meeting will provide an opportunity to craft a realistic implementation strategy to help guide tactical decisions that will need to be made during the next few years. The meeting will continue the popular tradition of poster sessions for presentation of ingenious strategies, creative tactics, and innovative mission concepts. A special focus will be on the connected issues of launch vehicle availability and mission cost growth in a constrained budget environment.

The MiPWG is chartered in order to identify and prioritize the most effective heliophysics implementation strategy. This strategy will aid the community to solve the most relevant science problems of our discipline. Thus, the submission of innovative mission concept posters by the community is strongly encouraged by the MiPWG team. Besides being displayed at the Town Hall meeting, electronic versions (pdf) of the mission concept poster should be submitted to the team at the time of the meeting. The content and style of the mission concept poster for display at the meeting is up to the presenter and only limited by the dimensions of the poster board (4'x4').

However, in order to support the strategic planning process and allow easy incorporation of community-provided content in the document, we strongly encourage presenters to submit an additional electronic version of their mission concept in a fixed, quad-chart style format. A link to the mission concept quad-chart template is provided here.
