As we continue to explore the heliosphere, our understanding of space weather and its effects are becoming increasingly important. Characterizing potential hazards posed by solar activity is critical for future human and robotic missions. These future missions to the Moon and Mars rely on understanding the impacts of space weather on the environment, humans, and technology. To ensure safe operations, mission planning must also consider how environmental response changes with solar cycle. Current planetary and heliophysics missions, data, and models offer the opportunity to assess space weather activity and impacts that humans and robotic assets may encounter. This session welcomes abstracts that address observations and simulation results on space weather activity relevant for exploration to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. We also welcome abstracts describing new developments in technology and advancements in space weather observations that are key for improving space weather forecasting throughout the heliosphere.
