•Space Weather changed that: it became a priority for US science and made it essential to consider Space Weather applications of FASR; in fact, made it dangerous to propose FASR without a significant Space Weather component •Hence we have to identify the role that FASR can play in Space Weather and what abilities it needs to achieve this role •We have to convince them that FASR really will make a contribution, not just image Type IIIs •Space Weather wants prediction of geomagnetic storms (power disruption) prediction of SEPs (hazard to spacecraft/astronauts) prediction of ionospheric conditions (communication) assessment of impacts of Sun directly, e.g. cell phones
