Abstract
The development of a new web-based learning program named as Physics of the Aurora: Earth Systems, by the Cooperative Program for Operational Meteorology, Education and Training (COMET), and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) High Altitude Observatory (HAO) is discussed. The project will assist faculty and students to better understand the Earth-Sun systems, and the importance of this relationship to life on earth. It is composed of sections on the Magnetosphere, Thermosphere/Ionosphere, and the Aurora. The module is slated for release in early 2004 and will be freely available through the HAO and COMET websites.
