In this geometric calculations of solar storms instructional activity, students use a diagram indicating the location of 2 STEREO satellites, the earth and the sun to calculate the distance between a Coronal Mass Ejection and the Earth....

In this sequences and probabilities activity, students read about solar storms and determine the probability that none of the events occurred on the same day.

Learners investigate the cycles of solar activity. They plot the solar activity and use the graph to answer a number of questions and explain the relationship between the solar storms and sunspots and the impact on earth and space travel.
