摘要：Tobiska et al. [2014] make a valid point regarding the necessity to keep a close eye on space weather, given its well and increasingly better known impacts on many technical components vital for our civilization and—mostly indirectly—on human well-being. A space weather surveillance and communications system operating independently of short-term political partisan interests may well be mandatory in order to safeguard humanity against potentially catastrophic consequences of extreme space weather events—and not only the flying public.
