  2. Space Weather Gear Readied For The Final Frontier
    09-29-2006 · ScienceDaily
    Atmospheric outflows, auroral emissions and plasma winds? While those aren't terms we hear on the average weather forecast, they cause cosmic storms that rage just outside the Earth's atmosphere and often wreak havoc with telecommunications networks, power grids and other technology essential to Canadian society. Researchers are hoping to gain a better understanding of this "space weather" with a suite of scientific instruments being developed under the leadership of the University of Calgary's Institute for Space Research.
