NOAA 's Space Weather Scales were created in 1999 when space weather began to gain popularity with the introduction of new technology to study weather in outer space.

There are three different scales pertain to explaining the different types of environmental impacts they can have and their severity.

Each of the scales includes details on how likely each type of event occurs on average and the type of intensity associated with each level.

Spacecraft operators are also interested in new space weather scales as more and more commercial companies depend on satellites for services.

"We need to think about what decisions people make on the ground and go beyond just categorizing our hazards to really trying to communicate something about impacts," said Kim Klockow McClain , senior social scientist for the National Weather Service .

NOAA is expected to finalize findings by the end of the year .
