The first all-sky maps developed by NASA's Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) spacecraft, the initial mission to examine the global interactions occurring at the edge of the solar system, suggest that the galactic magnetic fields had a far greater impact on Earth's history than previously conceived, and the future of our planet and others may depend, in part, on how the galactic magnetic fields change with time. http://www.physorg.com/news174909292.html Space & Earth Fri, 16 Oct 2009 16:00:02 EST news174909292 Following two months of commissioning, during which the spacecraft and sensors were tuned for optimum mission performance, the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) spacecraft began gathering data to build the first maps of the edge of the heliosphere, the region of space influenced by the Sun. http://www.physorg.com/news151152484.html Space & Earth Wed, 14 Jan 2009 10:48:04 EST news151152484 NASA's sun-focused STEREO spacecraft unexpectedly detected particles from the edge of the solar system last year, allowing University of California, Berkeley, scientists to map for the first time the energized particles in the region where the hot solar wind slams into the cold interstellar medium. http://www.physorg.com/news134223453.html Space & Earth Wed, 02 Jul 2008 13:17:33 EST news134223453
