Doing Something About the Weather

Short film · 14 min

Synopsis

Weather just does not happen; it is caused. This film describes all three weather scales - the microphysical (tiny particles), middle (front and cells), and global (layers of atmosphere) - that are interrelated in a total system. One of the benefits of the Space Shuttle is the opportunity to test these conditions in zero-g. In addition, the solar wind can be observed and tested from a more advantageous position.
