Combined heliosphere-astronomical data and models enrich our understanding both of effects the solar galactic environment might have on the inner heliosphere, and of interstellar clouds. Present data suggest that FeII/DI increases toward the upwind direction of the cluster of interstellar clouds (CLIC) flowing past the Sun. Cloud kinematics and abundances suggest an origin related to a supershell around the Scorpius-Centaurus Association. The solar space trajectory indicates the Sun entered the CLIC gas relatively recently.
