What is CSEM?
In April 2002 a large explosion on the Sun generated a space weather "storm".
Upon reaching Earth, this storm damaged satellites and produced aurora at low
latitudes. Click here to
see and hear a multimedia
presentation about this storm. This presentation is based on observations of the "storm" and results generated by the CSEM model. (Requires Flash... go to our Flash setup page if you have trouble viewing this presentation.)
