AbstractWithin the last decade, solar physics has moved into a golden era of discovery. A diverse assortment of ground- and space-based facilities has helped make rapid progress in the detection, identification, characterisation and understanding of dynamic motions spanning the photosphere through to the chromosphere. Combined modelling efforts have resulted in a number of outstanding science questions that can only be addressed with more advanced, larger aperture telescopes. Here I will outline some of the recent landmark discoveries that have developed into overarching science questions in solar physics, before highlighting how upcoming facilities, including the Indian NLST, will shine light on these challenging problems.
