Space Weather
Space Weather has been defined as the study, observation and forecasting of solar activities, and their effect on the solar wind, the magnetosphere and the ionosphere which have the potential to affect the near Earth environment. Dramatic solar activities can can affect a number of man-made systems [ Albertson et al., 1992 ]. Each new technological improvement has had to be evaluated in terms of its response to natural processes which are ultimately linked to the activities of the sun through geomagnetic storms. Therefore, physical plasma processes within the Earth's magnetosphere and interplanetary space need to be characterized and understood. Some of the earliest examples of the impact of electric and magnetic phenomena of the upper atmosphere were given by telegraph operators. During large solar disturbances telegraph lines sometimes appeared to be non-operable or operable without a battery supply [ Lanzerotti, 1979 ]. Many other examples of the geomagnetic effects on man-made systems have been given since these first reports. One of the most extreme examples is the failure of the Quebec Hydro's power system. A geomagnetic storm at 2:45AM on March 13, 1989 tripped five 735kV lines from James Bay causing a generation loss of 9450MW. Geomagnetic storms occur when bursts of plasma ejected from the sun (coronal mass ejections) impinge on the Earth's geomagnetic field. During a storm auroral particle precipitation into the atmosphere increases and the magnetospheric electric field mapped to the atmosphere intensifies. In response to the increase in particle precipitation and electric field, the conductivity, the neutral density and the currents of the atmosphere are also enhanced [

Co-authors: O.C. St. Cyr, NASA Goddard, USA; A.J. Coates, Mullard Space Science Laboratory, University College London, UK; M.J. Rycroft, International Space University Space weather is a multi-disciplinary subject that relies on dedicated spacecraft constantly monitoring the various relevant regions of space. The Sun is of special interest; continuous monitoring of definitive solar wind parameters upstream of the Earth is required, as are timely warnings of solar flares, coronal mass ejections and other extreme solar events. Measurements by instruments on small spacecraft would most cost-effectively provide continuous coverage of the various physical phenomena that cause undesirable space disturbances. We discuss here a few examples of small spacecraft which have been proposed for such purposes, e.g., Space Weather Diamond, Triana, Geostorm, etc.. Emphasis is placed on the advantages of these spacecraft, and on how the observations could be used as inputs to space weather monitoring programs. We suggest a potential mission concept for upstream monitoring using small satellites. Not only would the warnings given by these spacecraft be of importance to satellite operators and to utility companies, but also the observations would provide new information for space science research.

Surveillance tool key in monitoring hurricane season
By MARK CARREAU
A $220 million satellite hurtled into Earth orbit early Wednesday, giving the National Weather Service a new surveillance tool for the upcoming hurricane season. The 11th Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite, or GOES-11, soared from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., at 3:07 a.m. EDT, aboard a commercial Atlas IIA rocket. Following 90 days of maneuvers to gradually raise its orbital altitude and for instrument checkouts, the spacecraft is slated to become a ready backup for one of two similar, but aging sentries that now monitor tropical and severe storm development over the U.S. Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Hurricane season for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts begins June 1. The urgency of Wednesday's launch was apparent last Friday when NASA decided against further postponements of the GOES-11 mission in order to accelerate the weather-delayed liftoff of the shuttle Atlantis with seven astronauts. The space agency manages both programs, though NOAA will take over operation of the new weather satellite. The GOES launch is more than a year behind schedule. The mission was slowed by problems last May with a rocket engine in an advanced Delta commercial rocket.

OF FIRST WEATHER SATELLITE

April 1, 2000, marks the anniversary of the launch of the world's first weather satellite, the Commerce Department 's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration reported today. With today's advanced technology, and with satellite images of clouds on television weather forecasts, it may be difficult to remember when there were no weather satellites. The world's first weather satellite , a polar-orbiting satellite, was launched from Cape Canaveral on April 1, 1960. Named " TIROS " for Television Infrared Observation Satellite, it demonstrated the advantage of mapping the earth's cloud cover from satellite altitudes. TIROS showed clouds banded and clustered in unexpected ways . Sightings from the surface had not prepared meteorologists for the interpretation of the cloud patterns that the view from an orbiting satellite would show. Today, the nation's

Contact: judy.pettus@msfc.nasa.gov For Release: April 25, 2000 Release: NASA scientist: Lightning strike patterns may provide earlier tornado warning It's been a year almost to the day, but NASA researcher Steve Goodman still hasn't forgotten May 3, 1999. On that date, more than 50 tornadoes cut a killer swath across the Great Plains of Kansas and Oklahoma. Property damage was estimated at $1.2 billion. More than 40 people died. In hope of avoiding another May 3, 1999, Goodman and other scientists at the Global Hydrology and Climate Center, managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., are studying new methods of predicting severe storms. And they believe another dangerous element of severe weather may be the key. Using a combination of ground and space-based weather monitoring equipment, Goodman and colleagues at MIT Lincoln Laboratories in Lexington, Mass., and at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration offices in Melbourne Fl., and Norman, Okla., have documented nearly a dozen cases in which lightning rates increased dramatically as tornadic storms developed.
