...magnetic fields that it will encounter during launch and in space. The Dellingr CubeSat will study the ionosphere - the outer region of Earth’s atmosphere populated by charged particles, ionized by incoming solar radiation and magnetospheric particle...
... will collect valuable information far beyond the mission’s original plan, including sampling the atmosphere and ionosphere, measuring Saturn’s gravitational and magnetic fields, determining ring mass, and making the last views of Enceladus...
... signals in space. These frequencies range from 3 to 30 kHz, and are usually blocked on the Earth’s surface by the ionosphere. The launch makes Slovakia the 78th country in the world to send its own satellite into space...
... from cloud tops. ELVES on the other hand are concentric rings of emissions caused by an electromagnetic pulse in the ionosphere. These bursts of high-energy radiation are examples of a little-understood part of our atmosphere and their existence...
... the magnetic signals that stem from Earth’s core, mantle, crust and oceans, as well as from the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Although it is not necessarily a sign that Earth’s magnetic poles are going to flip – a phenomenon that...
... ultra-low frequency waves, which affect things like radiation belts, the aurora, and even the ionosphere, said Archer. Though it goes without saying that we have a lot on this planet that the magnetopause protects...
