Magnetosphere
Es una región que rodea al campo magnético de la tierra y que protege a la tierra del choque de la mayoría de las partículas del viento solar. Funciona como un escudo protector y no es exclusiva de la Tierra, sino que está presente en varios planetas del sistema solar. El choque de las partículas solares contra esta es lo que produce el efecto conocido como aurora boreal.
