Jam packed issues filled with the latest cutting-edge research, technology and theories delivered in an entertaining and visually stunning way, aiming to educate and inspire readers of all agesOn Earth, we have weather because we have an atmosphere. Electromagnetic radiation from the sun heats up molecules and gases in the atmosphere, which causes the dynamic weather systems that cover the globe on a daily basis.

“Just like understanding hurricanes, you want to understand the atmosphere the storm is flowing through," Jeffrey Newmark, principal investigator for the instrument and a scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland,Space weather: What is it and how is it predicted? You're going to get to see the evolution of structures in the solar wind, from when they form from the sun's corona until they flow outwards and become the solar wind," Nicholeen Viall, co-investigator of CODEX and heliophysicist at NASA Goddard, said in the same release.

"The types of solar wind that we get during solar maximum are different than some of the types of wind we get during solar minimum," Viall said."There are different coronal structures during this time that lead to different types of solar wind."
