The Space Weather Bureau
Sponsored by the Space Science Laboratory at NASA's Marshall Space Flight
Center, this space weather page provides a brief report on current space weather
conditions, a space weather forecast for the next 24 hours, solar flare
probabilities, and a brief discussion of what is meant by space weather.
The Space Weather Center
A project of the Space Science Institute (Boulder, Colorado), a
private institution focusing on public education and outreach in
the fields of the space and Earth science. This site offers an
overview of space weather, a gallery of auroral and solar images,
a glossary, concise "science briefs and reports," and links to
other Web resources. The material
is presented on a level accessible to the general public.
Space Weather Today
This is the space weather section of the
"Windows" site. "Space Weather Today" provides current views of the Sun
and the aurora and information about current solar and space weather
conditions. Especially noteworthy is the site's nicely presented, informative
tutorial on the "Basic Facts about Space Weather."
Today's Space Weather
An authoritative site for information on current space weather,
provided by Space Environment Center of the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration in Boulder, Colorado. The site provides
access to current solar images, solar
geophysical forecasts and parameters, and links to data sites. Also,
links to education and outreach sites are available.
Ryan and Brandon's Space Weather Web Site
A web site about space weather prepared by two middle school students
as a summer project supported by the NSF Young Scholars Program at the
MIT Haystack Observatory. The site includes descriptions of aurora, the
solar cycle, coronal mass ejections, effects of space weather at earth,
geomagnetic and ionospheric disturbances, solar flares, the solar wind,
and sunspots. It also has images and numerous links to other sites.
Beginner's Guide to Space Weather
An on-line tutorial on space weather prepared by the
Space Studies Board of the National Research Council. Topics covered include
the
solar origins of space weather, the Earth's
space environment, "Earth-space meteorology," and the practical
consequences of space weather. Lots of graphics. The site provides a glossary,
with
hyperlinked definitions, and links to other space weather resources.
