TRACERS MISSION: UNLOCKING SPACE WEATHER SECRETS

NASA's TRACERS mission aims to study Sun-Earth interactions, improve space weather prediction, and protect global infrastructure. The mission focuses on examining key phenomena like magnetic reconnection and cusp electrodynamics. Space weather affects life on Earth through power grids, satellite operations, communication, and human health, as strong solar storms can damage satellites and disrupt navigation.
