NASA DISCOVERS MAGNETIC “FOAM” ON THE BORDER OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM
You would never know it from Earth, but the entire Solar System is encapsulated in a massive magnetic field produced by the sun. The border between that magnetic field and interstellar space is called the heliopause. Astrophysicists used to think it was a smooth, discrete barrier: one moment you’re in the Solar System, and after breaking through it, you’re outside and subject to interstellar wind and radiation. Now, thanks to data collected from Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, both of which have recently passed through this zone, we know it’s not a simple barrier at all – it’s actually full of magnetic “bubbles,” millions of miles wide.
