Scientific paper

The unique in situ observations acquired by the scientific instrumentation on board the Ulysses spacecraft have provided, for the first time, a comprehensive, 3-dimensional view of the heliosphere from the solar equator to the poles near solar minimum. Since beginning its journey out of the ecliptic plane in February, 1992, Ulysses has acquired a wealth of truly new observations concerning the particles and fields in the previously unreachable high-latitude regions of the heliosphere. The articles that comprise this special issue are devoted to recent results from the high-latitude passes of Ulysses, including the rapid transit from the southern to the northern hemisphere. This paper serves as an introduction to these articles, and provides a short summary of the major scientific findings from the mission to date. Also included is a description of the various Ulysses data archives and their access.
