We experience weather on Earth, with wind, clouds, and storms. But there's also weather in space, caused by the Sun's activity.
The Sun occasionally ejects large amounts of energy and particles that can hit Earth. This is known as a solar storm. The solar wind is a stream of gas that flows away from the Sun.
The Sun is a very hot, very big ball of gas at the center of our solar system.
Although we can't see the solar wind directly, instruments in space can measure it. Solar storms can be strong and affect our planet.
