[LINK] Space Weather Alert

[Tom Worthington]

In an interview with The Canberra Times last week at the ANU College of Engineering, Computing & Cybernetics, I pointed out that space based telecommunications are vulnerable to solar storms, so facilities such as Telstra Tower remain useful. https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/8564697/why-the-closed-telstra-tower-still-hold-immense-value-to-the-act/

As it happens, the Bureau of Meteorology's Australian Space Weather Forecasting Centre issued a severe space weather WATCH yesterday: "The effects are expected to be significant. Increased awareness of critical infrastructure is advised." https://t.co/GwpkUUl0Mw
