Abstract
Space weather-the fluctuating magnetic fields and energetic particles that originate from the Sun and penetrate far into Earth9s atmosphere-has the power to damage satellites and disrupt communications or power grids on Earth9s surface. In his Perspective, Baker reviews recent efforts to understand space weather and shield satellites from its harmful effects.Keywords
