How solar wind forecasting will help define heliosphere's boundaries

Here’s what’s happening with how solar wind forecasting will help define heliosphere’s boundaries.

Phys.org Space reports that How solar wind forecasting will help define heliosphere’s boundaries. Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) scientists are using a solar wind forecasting method combined with analytic and numerical heliosphere models to find out where the first plasma boundary of the outer heliosphere lies as NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft hurtles toward this mysterious region of space. The key issue is what the mission or observation makes possible next: better data, stronger hardware, new experiments, or clearer science.
