Space-Weather & Solar-Cycle Event Markets

Markets on geomagnetic storms, visible aurora at low latitudes and satellite disruption resolve on published index thresholds, and those indices are forecast by space-weather agencies from solar observations with one to three days of lead time. Active regions are tracked as they rotate across the solar disk, which gives a rhythm to the risk. This is a small, technical niche with almost no informed participation and fully public data.

What you need to run it

Space-weather agency feeds for solar activity, coronal mass ejections and index forecasts
Understanding of the specific index and threshold each market resolves on
Solar-cycle context, since baseline event rates vary enormously across the cycle

Where this applies

Markets on Polymarket where space-weather & solar-cycle event markets is the natural play:

Will a severe geomagnetic storm occur before the end of the year?
Will aurora be visible below 45° latitude this month?
Will a solar flare above the stated class occur this week?
