Who's behind SpaceWeatherLive?

SpaceWeatherLive is an initiative of Parsec vzw, a non-profit organization from Belgium which consists of several websites about Astronomy, Space, Space Weather, aurora and related subjects.

A bit of history...

Long before SpaceWeatherLive even existed there was a Dutch astronomy website, called Spacepage which is part of our organisation Parsec vzw. back in 2003 Spacepage provided some Space Weather information on that page with some basic data. That bit of information however grew steadely untill it went too big for the Spacepage website and quickly saw itself going to it's own Dutch domain Poollicht.be in 2005. The whole Space Weather website was then only available in the Dutch language. People loved the fact that they had a Space Weather website in their native language and the whole website was transformed into a multi-lingual website which was launched in 2008 with three available languages (Dutch, English and French), due to being multi-lingual, the international name SpaceWeatherLive saw it's birth.

Years and years of continuously improving and extending the website made it one of the biggest Space Weather websites on the internet with thousands and thousands of vistors per day and an ever groing set of unique features to bring everyone the latest and best Space Weather data, news, alerts, information and so much more.
