NASA discovers portals in space between the Earth and the Sun (but don’t book your ticket just yet)
By JAMES NYE
NASA has turned science fiction into science fact by announcing the discovery of hidden 'portals' in Earth's magnetic field.
Called X-points or electron diffusion regions, rather than being intergalactic folds in space leading to different galaxies and planets, these portals aid in the transfer of the magnetic field from the Sun to Earth.
Essentially, these portals aid in the transfer of tons of magnetically charged particles that flow from the Sun causing the northern and southern lights and geomagnetic storms.
'We call them X-points or electron diffusion regions,' said University of Iowa plasma physicist Jack Scudder, who is studying them.
'They’re places where the magnetic field of Earth connects to the magnetic field of the Sun, creating an uninterrupted path leading from our own planet to the sun’s atmosphere 93 million miles away.'
Surrounding the Earth at distances from 10,000 to 30,000 miles away, the portals have been observed by NASA's THEMIS spacecraft and Europe's Cluster probes.
