Global warming has replaced the China Syndrome as the number one energy worry in the United States, and Cassini is delivering a whole world of new data on Saturn: rubble - pile moons, record - groove gaps in the planet's famous rings, complex weather systems churning through the pastel cloud cover, and possible explanations for the unrelenting 900 - mile - an - hour winds.

Using infrared images recorded by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope, astronomers have created the first weather map of a planet outside our solar system.

We knew the dwarf planet had weather systems, but here's the first evidence from the New Horizons probe of clouds in Pluto's atmosphere

On our planet the jet stream meanders from west to east and brings, associated with it, the system of areas of low pressure and anticyclones which we have been seeing regularly on weather maps.

These data were obtained on November 17, 2013 during the first week of operation of GPI and in relatively challenging weather conditions, but with GPI's advanced adaptive optics system and coronagraph the planets can still be clearly seen and their spectra measured (see Figure 2).

The Hubble Space Telescope has an eye on storms across the solar system, but the weather on Mars is chief among the challenges NASA faces as we plan for human exploration of the Red Planet in the 2030s.

In view of future missions to the outer Solar System, an accurate identification of the space weather conditions around a planet can contribute significantly in the estimation of the water abundances in the planetary atmospheres and their long - and short - term variability.

The project may involve the following topics: — Interaction of the solar wind with magnetised and unmagnetised planets — Space weather forecasts — Numerical (HPC) and analytical modelling of MHD wave processes and jets in solar and astrophysical plasma — MHD wave observations and solar magneto - seismology — Application of advanced data analysis to solar system science — Physics of collisionless shocks (including planetary and interplanetary shocks)-- Analysis of multi-point measurements made by space missions, e.g Cluster (ESA), THEMIS (NASA), MMS (NASA)

Looking farther, into the outer solar system, Webb's observations will give us a better picture of the seasonal weather and climate on our giant planets and their moons.

Global positioning satellites (GPS); remote sensing for water, minerals, and crop and land management; weather satellites, arms treaty verifications; high - temperature, light - weight materials; revolutionary medical procedures and equipment; pagers, beepers, and television and internet to remote areas of the world; geographic information systems (GIS) and algorithms used to handle huge, complex data sets; physiologic monitoring and miniaturization; atmospheric and ecological monitoring; and insight into our planet's geological history and future — the list goes on and on.

Within our own solar system, HDST would provide images of weather and surfaces on the outer planets and their moons far beyond today's capabilities.

This is the first direct evidence of a sustained weather system generated by polar aurorae on any planet, and this is the first time a weather feature in Jupiter's upper atmosphere has been observed away from the planet's bright aurorae.

Whilst climate (and weather) almost certainly are chaotic on some scale (or at least influenced by some chaotic system — even the orbit of the planets!)

As a result they have a direct effect on the weather of all the planets in our solar system, and the Earth's own magnetic field.

It is the speed of the response in the air as compared to the slowness of ocean changes that enables the air to cope with the oceanic changes and thereby keep the temperature of the air and the vigour of the weather systems within bounds amenable to us as inhabitants of the planet.

Massive bodies flying in and around our solar system also have an effect on the weather of all the planets in our solar system.

With consequences of global warming on our planet already changing our weather systems, predictions suggest our output of CO2 into the atmosphere will not peak until...

The business (literally) of dissociating weather from climate and global warming and the sciences involved in studying our planet's dynamic weather systems has provided too many escape routes from serious discussion.

If the vast majority of the world's scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet's climate system into a tail - spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced - a catastrophe of our own making.»

Climate forcing has the strong potential to alter the amount of energy and behavior in weather systems on the planet.

If you followed Jim Flannery's book, The Weather Makers, there is a 30 to 40 - year lag between the emission of heat trapping gases and the behavior of the system that we see cropping up in weather headlines around the planet.

Though countless forms of anthropogenic activity have done immense damage to the planet and climate system, there can be no legitimate discussion of the weather or the climate system without first and foremost including the single greatest climate disrupting and damaging factor of all, global climate engineering.
