Policy is not the impediment to increasing space weather preparedness in the United States; the lack of funding is.

The auroras we saw throughout the US in May were triggered by solar phenomena scientists expect to see through early to mid-2026.

For decades, satellites passing over Earth's north and south poles have experienced a flow of ions from the upper atmosphere into space. Dubbed the 'polar wind', the source of this flow had eluded ...

Researchers have discovered that the same principles governing air turbulence in the troposphere also apply to the thermosphere. A study published in Geophysical Research Letters reveals that ...

Among the unique phenomena triggered by the event was the appearance of a huge spiral structure in the thermosphere, as well as the complete obliteration of the ionosphere in the mid-latitude region.

The atmosphere is comprised of layers based on temperature. These layers are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere and thermosphere. A further region at about 500 km above the Earth's surface is ...
