Solar storms produce bursts of charged particles and radiation which reach the Earth, affecting its atmosphere and modern technology.

An emerging activity in forecasting space weather aims to mitigate its effects. Solar particles take from a few minutes to a few days to reach Earth so that spacecraft positioned between the Sun and the Earth can provide enough advance warning, at least of slower-moving events, to allow sensitive systems to be switched off or protected. Computer models of the upper atmosphere are also being developed to predict impacts.
