Once outside the magnetosphere’s protection, astronauts are vulnerable to radiation and so require additional protection. It is thought that Mars may have once had a protective magnetic field ...

Since the magnetic field is sustained by geological activity deep within our planet ... Sometimes the sun emits large bursts of magnetized solar plasma, called coronal mass ejections, which can cause ...

designed to study the Earth’s magnetosphere. The scientists identified what are known as 'chorus waves'—bursts of electromagnetic radiation that travel along Earth’s magnetic field lines.

But as you venture farther and farther into space, the compass behavior can change. A Compass in Earth's Orbit Earth’s magnetic field, called the magnetosphere, bubbles out thousands of miles beyond ...

If true, it could affect heat flow and convection deep within our planet in ways that could influence the way Earth generates ...

Unusual aurora borealis appear in this country; NASA is on its way. NASA’s EZIE is Launching to Study Magnetic Fingerprints ...

Now, though, a controversial new paper warns that falling space junk could actually weaken Earth’s magnetic field ... net would then likely cause the magnetosphere, which typically extends ...

interacts with its magnetic field. When this complex structure encountered Earth’s magnetosphere, it compressed the magnetosphere and triggered an intense geomagnetic storm. This same process ...
