Abstract Venera-Halley mission is to be launched to Venus in Dec. 1984. It will fly by Venus in June 1985. Separation of the cometary probe and Venera descend module will take place at that time. The gravitational swing-by at Venus will provide the encounter with the Halley comet in March 1986. The remote sensing of the inner coma (TV-imagery, spectrometry in the region from 1200 A to 12 μm, polarimetry) and of the nucleus, direct measurements of dust fluxes, dust composition, plasma and magnetic field are planned in the framework of multinational cooperation.
