As we approach maximum solar activity, these events will become more common.
This interview was edited for length and clarity.: It's a sort of general term that describes all sorts of conditions in interplanetary space that affect infrastructure, technology, and life on the Earth. There are a number of different ingredients forming space weather. There is a ground state, which is basically solar wind. Solar wind itself is not uniform. It's a flow of plasma flowing from the Sun outwards. It's not exactly a steady-state. It's a persistent phenomenon.
IE: In 1859, a solar storm hit Earth and caused a lot of problems. What happened exactly, and how might things be different if something similar were to happen now? More important than that, we have a huge fleet of satellites, and many of them are located far away from Earth in different directions from the Sun. Even events that do not hit the Earth can hit one of the satellites. It's a persistent problem. The engineers who produce the equipment and technology for satellites have to think about those potential impacts.IE: These events happen more often sometimes and less often sometimes.
