The Royal Observatory of Belgium in Uccle is one of the main places in Belgium where research on astronomical topics is conducted. Its department of Solar Physics and Space Weather has as primary goal to advance knowledge on the Sun and its influence on the solar system, through research and observations. We provide this knowledge and expertise to the scientific community, to the society, the government and the industry through operational services and dissemination at both the national and the international level. The specific topics that we aim to research are inspired by our own operational activities, by our heritage in some sub-disciplines and – last but not least – by a passion for understanding the Sun and its effects at a more fundamental level.
