Sorry that Photo came out GARGANTOUS!

ACE is our best early warning system,” says Bogdan. “It allows us to notify utility and satellite operators when a storm is about to hit.”

NASA spacecraft were not originally intended for operational forecasting—”but it turns out that our data have practical economic and civil uses,” notes Fisher. “This is a good example of space science supporting modern society.”

2010 marks the 4th year in a row that policymakers, researchers, legislators and reporters have gathered in Washington DC to share ideas about space weather. This year, forum organizers plan to sharpen the focus on critical infrastructure protection. The ultimate goal is to improve the nation’s ability to prepare, mitigate, and respond to potentially devastating space weather events.

“I believe we’re on the threshold of a new era in which space weather can be as influential in our daily lives as ordinary terrestrial weather.” Fisher concludes. “We take this very seriously indeed

NASA’s been lying to us about the weather in re Climategate. What evidence do they have that there’s going to be increased actvity?

Hmm...I smell a politically driven rat!

We’re entering a cold period...not a warming period. So now this ‘group’ warns us that the Sun is heating up. Bull shit!

I don’t know about you, but I am looking for some good HF radio propogation as the sunspot cycle comes out of the minimum. Still have fond memories of working great DX during my first sunspot maximum as a Ham in the 1970’s.

NASA can take a flying leap off their own cliff. The Sun is experiencing record quiet and their current projection for this sunspot cycle is way off so far.

I hope, as they’re paying attention to the sun’s power in this regard, they’ll realize that we humans have precious little effect on our climate.

This could easily damage our communications and GPS satellite systems.

Could keep our space shuttles busy repairing them if it turns nasty.

Oh, wait.....
