Space Weather in the FY 2009 U.S. Federal Budget Request

U.S. President George W. Bush has requested a total of US$147 billion in federal research and development spending for fiscal year (FY) 2009, a 2.7% increase from the FY 2008 budget enacted by Congress, according to documents released 4 February by the U.S. Office of Science and Technology Policy. Within this budget, space weather and solar studies have a strong focus, government officials indicated. Government interest in space weather and solar studies in the National Space Weather Program (http://www.nswp .gov) can be divided to two categories: forecasts and operations, and basic research.
