Forecasting space weather
Although the Sun is over 90 million miles away from Earth, life on this planet simply couldn't exist without it. But what's often overlooked is that the Sun is in constant flux and that this change - or solar activity - has a direct effect on Earth. The phenomenon is known as space weather and it's the reason why the Met Office has been working in partnership with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) since February 2011 - sharing valuable knowledge and developing the UK's space weather forecasting capabilities.28 March 2012
