Popis:	To make progress on the open questions on CME/CIR propagation, their interactions and the role and nature of the ambient solar wind, we need spatially resolved coverage of the inner heliosphere -- both in-situ and (critically) imaging -- at temporal scales matching the evolutionary timescales of these phenomena (tens of minutes to hours), and from multiple vantage points. The polar vantage is uniquely beneficial because of the wide coverage and unique perspective it provides. The ultimate goal is to achieve full $4\pi$ coverage of the solar surface and atmosphere by 2050. Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures, 1 table White Paper submitted to the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop
