Statement of Task
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will appoint an ad hoc committee to organize a workshop that will consider options for continuity and future enhancements of the U.S. space weather operational and research infrastructure. A report of the workshop proceedings will follow. The workshop will:
- Review current and planned U.S. and international space weather-related observational capabilities;
- Discuss baseline space weather observational needs;
- Identify programmatic and technological options to ensure continuity of the baseline, giving particular attention to options to extend the Space Weather Follow On (SWFO) program; and
- Consider options for technology, instrument, and mission development to support in situ and remote sensing space weather observations from either ground- or space-based vantage points, the latter including L1, L5, L4, GEO, and LEO.
