Reminder: TESS-Triennial Earth-Sun Summit, Indianapolis, April 26-May 1, 2015
ABSTRACT DEADLINE: January 22, 9 pm ET.

The Triennial Earth-Sun Summit (TESS, http://aas.org/meetings/tess2015) is a joint meeting of the Space Physics and Aeronomy Section of the American Geophysical Union and the Solar Physics Division of the American Astronomical Society. The inaugural meeting will take place 26 April-1 May, 2015 in Indianapolis.

TESS is intended to be a gathering of the entire Heliophysics community, including the four traditional sub-disciplines devoted to studies of the Sun, heliosphere, magnetosphere, and ionosphere-thermosphere-mesosphere.

The overarching goal is to promote greater interaction and unity within this community. The meeting site has been selected to provide an excellent environment for this to occur, and the scientific and social programs are being designed with this goal in mind. In particular, the scientific program will include plenary talks covering each of the sub-disciplines, as well as inter-disciplinary and discipline-specific sessions with invited and contributed talks and posters. Some sessions will be led by organizers selected by the Scientific Organizing Committee (“AGU style”), while others will be created by the SOC after the abstracts have been submitted (“SPD style”).  We invite you to join us for this exciting inaugural event!
