Comic Books

SCOSTEP has been sponsoring a series of ‘Comic Books’ designed to raise the awareness of the general public, and young people in particular, about issues in solar-terrestrial science. An initiative of Prof. Yosuke Kamide, Solar-Terrestrial Energy Laboratory, Nagoya University. Originally produced in Japanese, the books have been translated into English, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, Hindi and Korean, with translation now ongoing into Chinese, Czech, Finnish, Hebrew, Marathi, Nigerian (Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba & Pidgin), Swedish and Thai. Blank drawings are available to translate the books into other languages.

SCOSTEP Mandate

SCOSTEP seeks opportunities for interaction with national and international programs involving Solar-Terrestrial Physics elements. It provides guidance to the STP discipline centers of ICSU’s World Data Center system. It attempts to develop and sustain student interest in Sun-Earth connections, to promote efficient exchange of data and information between solar and terrestrial scientists in all countries, and to seek projects and programs that cross over traditional boundaries of physical regions and focused scientific disciplines.
