SERPENS (Scientific Experiment Related to the Planetary Environments of the Sun)

SERPENS (Scientific Experiment Related to the Planetary Environments of the Sun) is a research initiative designed to study how the Sun's activity affects the environments of planets, including Earth. By analyzing solar phenomena like solar flares and particles, it helps us understand space weather and its impact on satellites, communications, and power systems. This knowledge is crucial for predicting and mitigating disruptions caused by solar activity, ensuring the safety and functionality of our technological infrastructure. Overall, SERPENS aims to deepen our understanding of the Sun's influence on planetary environments to better protect and prepare our technology and space missions.
