| The **THEMIS Solar Telescope** primary scientific objectives center on studying the Sun's magnetic field and associated phenomena. THEMIS name stands for "Télescope Héliographique pour l’Étude du Magnétisme et des Instabilités Solaires" (i.e. heliographic telescope for the study of magnetism and solar instabilities). THEMIS allows [[themis:science#Instrumental and technical objectives of THEMIS |high resolution solar spectropolarimetry]]. THEMIS is mainly aimed and designed for the [[themis:science#Solar physics science with THEMIS | study of the Sun]] and in particular to understand [[themis:science#Understanding Solar Magnetism|the solar magnetism]], as well as [[themis:science#Understanding Solar Heating|solar atmosphere heating]], [[themis:science#Study and follow Solar Activity |solar activity]] and the solar origin of [[themis:science#Help Understand Space Weather | space weather]]. | The **THEMIS Solar Telescope** primary scientific objectives center on studying the Sun's magnetic field and associated phenomena.

| Remarkably, THEMIS can also perform observation of near Sun objects such as [[themis:science#Planetary science with THEMIS |Mercury and comets]], in ways that are orthogonal and complementary to traditional planetary observations. | Remarkably, THEMIS can also perform observation of near Sun objects such as [[themis:science#Planetary science with THEMIS |Mercury and comets]], in ways that are orthogonal and complementary to traditional planetary observations. |
