This book covers the topic of weather in space, which is defined by our Sun. It interacts with our atmosphere and magnetic field (actually the atmosphere and magnetic fields (if any) of all the planets and moons), to influence our weather. It can impact our technology as well.


The study of Space Weather depends on space physics. All of our Space Weather originates with the Sun. The first serious study's of the subject were undertaken in the International Geophysical Year, in 1957. Actually stretching 18 months, this period saw the first launches of Earth Satellites, and amazing discovery's. We have to be able to predict Space Weather Storms, if we want humans to live and work in space. Space weather affects our satellites, produces the Northern (and Southern) Lights, and can affect communications, the electric grid, aviation and more.
