Earth’s magnetosphere – the region of space dominated by the planetary magnetic field – provides some protection for ...

Contrary to previous assumptions, the Moon's passage through Earth's magnetic field, or "geotail," does not lead to lower plasma densities. Listen to Story Scientists from the Space Physics Laboratory ...

ESCAPADE will study how the "solar wind interacts with Mars’ magnetic environment and how this interaction drives the planet’s atmospheric escape," according to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.

Astronauts on the International Space Station are still within Earth’s magnetic field, which protects them from solar and cosmic radiation effects. If you travel to Mars, you will be exposed to ...
