  As the Sun Awakens, NASA Keeps a Wary Eye on Space Weather

*June 4, 2010:* Earth and space are about to come into contact in a 
way that's new to human history. To make preparations, authorities in 
Washington DC are holding a meeting: The Space Weather Enterprise 
Forum at the National Press Club on June 8th.


Richard Fisher, head of NASA's Heliophysics Division, explains what 
it's all about:


The sun is waking up from a deep slumber, and in the next few years 
we expect to see much higher levels of solar activity. At the same 
time, our technological society has developed an unprecedented 
sensitivity to solar storms. The intersection of these two issues is 
what we're getting together to discuss.

Predictions for this solar cycle are still for its being on the low 
side. It appears it's not likely that the MUF will even get high 
enough for 6 meter F-propagation.

Oh well ... maybe I'll live till the next one.

Zack, I sincerely hope you are that fortunate.  At age 71, I'm not 
encouraged.
