The Gold Medal is the Society&#8217;s highest honour, and previous winners include Albert Einstein, Edwin Hubble, Arthur Eddington and Stephen Hawking. The Society awarded Dr Horne the Gold Medal for his exceptional contribution to expanding our understanding of the physics of space weather and dynamic conditions in outer space environments. Achievements of Professor Horne include his discovery that electromagnetic waves in planetary magnetospheres are responsible for accelerating charged particles to relativistic energies and velocities close to the speed of light, underlying BAS&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bas.ac.uk\/science\/research-models\/bas-radiation-belt-model-bas-rbm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Radiation Belt Model<\/a>.
