Space Weather in the Solar System
Welcome to the Spacecraft Operations - Space Weather in the Solar System service
Overview
The service "Spacecraft Operations - Space Weather in the Solar System Space" provides forecasts, nowcasts and alerts related to space weather in the heliosphere. The service is aimed at solar system mission operators who require information, at locations away from the Earth, in order to make informed decisions on the planning and execution of spacecraft operations.
The focus has been on the assessment of solar wind and solar wind transient propagation within the heliosphere. Forecasts are primarily based upon models driven by remote observations of the Sun and corona. Access to historical mission data provides additional context upon which to base operational decisions. Future developments are expected to extend the support for assessment of SEPs and extension of the solar wind modelling beyond the orbit of Mars.

Products and Alerts
The products provided for this service are split into forecast and nowcast for three physical domains consisting of 1) Solar Activity; 2) Interplanetary Medium at L1; and 3) Interplanetary Medium Outside L1. Access to archive and reconstructed products from these physical domains and related alerts are also provided. The Solar activity provides the driver for space weather effects within the solar system and on planetary environments. The L1 and Outside L1 products provide forecasts and nowcasts of the enviroment at those locations.Products

User Manual
Heliospheric Weather encompasses the effects of the solar wind, including the transient structures therein, as they propagate out from the Sun's corona through the heliosphere. This includes heliospheric effects that directly influence the Earth and also other locations within the heliosphere that may be relevant to interplanetary exploration missions.
