Scientific paper

The 4m ATST is scheduled to be commissioned within the next decade and will replace current major NSO facilities with the most powerful solar telescope and the world's leading resource for studying solar magnetism that controls the solar wind, flares, coronal mass ejections and variability in the Sun's output. As its highest priority science driver ATST shall provide high resolution and high sensitivity observations of the highly dynamic solar magnetic fields throughout the solar atmosphere, including the corona. After a brief overview of the science goals and unique observational capabilities of the ATST a summary of the design of the telescope and its powerful first-light instrumentation as well as the project status will be given.
