<p class="gmail-isSelectedEnd" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Understanding how solar-wind forcing propagates through the coupled solar wind–magnetosphere–ionosphere–thermosphere system to impact satellites is one of the central
challenges in space weather. As low-Earth orbit satellite constellations continue to grow, connecting upstream solar drivers to downstream impacts has never been more important.</span></p>
