Last August’s total eclipse of the Sun focussed popular attention on solar science . Beyond this transient spectacle, the increasing use of near-Earth space by satellites provides a strong economic incentive for greater knowledge of Sun-Earth interactions. The disruptions these can cause on Earth, could well increase as the next maximum in solar activity approaches.

Recent advances in ground-based, satellite and theo-retical astronomy have proved the Solar System’s dynamism and complexity — in particular, that some of its minor members, called Near Earth Objects may impact the Earth in the future. In the UK, the USA and Australia, parliamentary interest has been stimulated. This report sets the results of recent surveys in context and considers the risks involved.
