SpaceWeatherTracker Editorial Policy
SpaceWeatherTracker aims to be a reliable, transparent, and educational resource for anyone curious about space weather and the night sky. This page explains the standards we hold our content and tools to.
1. Our Mission
SpaceWeatherTracker exists to make astronomy and space weather information accessible and understandable โ for beginners, educators, hobbyists, and researchers.
2. Accuracy and Reliability
We use trusted scientific data sources (see Data Sources), verify information against multiple feeds where practical, and are committed to representing the underlying science accurately rather than sensationally.
3. Educational Focus
SpaceWeatherTracker doesn't just display numbers. Our goal is to help users understand what events actually mean, how observations work, and how to use astronomy tools effectively. Explore the Academy for deeper explainers.
4. Human Review and Improvement
Educational content is reviewed and improved over time. Tools and calculations are updated as data sources evolve, and corrections are made when we identify โ or are shown โ that something is wrong.
5. Transparency
Users can learn where our data comes from on Data Sources, how our calculations work on Methodology, and the limitations of every forecast on both pages.
6. Corrections Policy
If you spot an error, please tell us via the Contact page. Every report is reviewed, and material corrections are applied to the relevant page.
