Solar wind is the best natural laboratory for the study of turbulence in plasmas. Using in-situ measurements provided by the fleet of dedicated space missions, it has been shown that solar wind is highly turbulent. We will present a description of the main turbulence results and in particular the study of intermittency, the generation of small scale structures, and the possible dissipation processes.
