The heliosphere is a very special region for us. It is mostly controlled by the Sun, and is shielded from the plasma and the moderately energetic particles of the interstellar environment. Compared to the main sources of cosmic rays the Sun and the heliosphere are very inefficient energetic particles producers. Because we are so much closer to the Sun than to any other star, those locally produced energetic particles are still competitive in their influence on Earth, and are also much more accessible for detailed study than the much more energetic emissaries of far-away violent events. Several clues on fundamental energetic particle acceleration and propagation processes are due to heliospheric studies, and there is ample scope for progress. Recent results and further prospects will be reviewed.
