Solar terrestrial exploration can help estab- lish the physical cause and effect relationships between solar stimuli and terrestrial responses. When these relationships are understood, science will have an essential tool for weather and climate predic- tion." This paragraph, written by Robert D. Chapman as part of a proposal for a five-year plan for Solar Terrestrial Programs in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, is an indication of the present status of Sun-weather/climate investigations. The literature on this subject covers a period of more than 100 years, and many distinguished scientists have contributed. Never- theless, until very recently, Sun-weather/climate investigations have not been taken very seriously by many scientists.
