noaa space weather scale for solar radiation stormss3 strongbiological: radiation hazard avoidance recommended for astronauts on eva; passengers and crew in high-flying aircraft at high latitudes may be exposed to radiation risk.***satellite operations: single-event upsets, noise in imaging systems, and slight reduction of efficiency in solar panel are likely.other systems: degraded hf radio propagation through the polar regions and navigation position errors likely. http://www.sec.noaa.gov/noaascales/index.html#solarradiationstormshttp://www.spaceweather.com/
yep. a total hf blackout at the pole during that time, probably mcmurdo too.one experiment i maintain (looks for radar echoes off meteoritesǃ) blacked out too because of ionospheric conditions. at first we thought it was a hardware problem… lesson learned.g
