National Organization for Solar-Terrestrial Research

The National Organization for Solar-Terrestrial Research (NOSTER) focuses on studying the Sun and its effects on Earth and the space environment. This research helps scientists understand solar activity, such as sunspots and solar flares, and how they influence weather patterns and technology on Earth. By exploring the connections between solar phenomena and terrestrial conditions, NOSTER plays a crucial role in improving forecasting for space weather events, which can impact satellites, communication systems, and power grids. Their work is vital for enhancing our understanding of space science and protecting technological infrastructure in our increasingly connected world.
