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 (PhysOrg.com) -- NASA's Interstellar Boundary Explorer, or IBEX, spacecraft has made it possible for scientists to construct the first comprehensive sky map of our solar system and its location in the Milky Way galaxy. The new view will change the way researchers view and study the interaction between our galaxy and sun. http://www.physorg.com/news174834985.html Space & Earth Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:16:59 EST news174834985 As part of its education and public outreach efforts, the story of NASA's Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission has been chronicled in a space show premiering this month at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago. The show also is being distributed free of charge and will be opening shortly in planetaria worldwide. http://www.physorg.com/news155474197.html Space & Earth Thu, 05 Mar 2009 11:16:47 EST news155474197 (PhysOrg.com) -- Diamond-like carbon films created at Sandia National Laboratories are helping probe the far boundaries of the solar system as part of a NASA mission to study how the sun's solar wind interacts with the interstellar medium - the matter that exists between the stars within a galaxy. http://www.physorg.com/news154022294.html Physics Mon, 16 Feb 2009 15:58:54 EST news154022294 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 Interstellar Boundary Explorer mission, or IBEX, successfully launched from the Kwajalein Atoll in the Pacific Ocean at 1:47 p.m. EDT, Sunday. IBEX will be the first spacecraft to image and map dynamic interactions taking place in the outer solar system. http://www.physorg.com/news143649750.html Space & Earth Sun, 19 Oct 2008 15:42:30 EST news143649750
