Аnnotation: A brief review of anomalous (paradoxical) measurement results is presented, in which the probable cause of the contradictions (oddities) are variations of space weather, or solar activity. In physics, such artifacts are fictitious changes in the gravitational constant, imitation of bursts of gravitational waves by Weber antennas and false variations in the rate of radioactive decay. In cosmophysics, they are the apparent variations in the intensity of cosmic rays of high energy and the flux of solar neutrinos. The brightest artifacts in astrophysics are the variability of the cosmological redshift, the presence of solar oscillations with a period of 160 min in the nuclei of distant galaxies, the existence of periods of natural oscillations of the Earth in the radiation of cosmic masers. The influence of space weather in all these cases gets a simple explanation, assuming that there is an impact on the measurement technology, i.e. devices. The cosmic weather is, apparently, an important factor in metrology.
