The United States has launched three spacecraft aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket to enhance space weather monitoring. These probes, including IMAP and SWFO-L1, will study solar particles, the heliosphere, and Earth's exosphere from the Lagrange 1 point. The goal is to improve predictions of solar storms and mitigate their potential impact on Earth's technology, power grids, and astronaut safety.
