We study the feasibility of a new generation axion helioscope, the most ambitious
and promising detector of solar axions to date. We show that large improvements in
magnetic field volume, x-ray focusing optics and detector backgrounds are possible beyond
those achieved in the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST).
