Description

Storms in Space is the story of the mysterious region between Earth and the Sun, where violent storms rage unseen by human eyes.

Disruption of spacecraft and satellites, television transmission failures and power blackouts are just a few of the effects of this powerful force of nature, caused by the charged particles and electromagnetic fields that dominate space.

This is a highly readable synopsis of man's understanding of the space environment.

The book discusses the similarities between storms on Earth and in space, and goes on to describe the causes and effects of space storms, and how they can be monitored by satellites and from observatories on Earth.

The forecasting of space storms is presented, along with prospects for improved models in the future.

This clear and engaging book will be valuable to space scientists, physicists, astronomers and anyone with an interest in understanding the phenomenon of space weather.
