Workshop 6 – Frames
The moving iron core within the Earth acts like a giant bar
magnet. It produces a weak gas magnetic field that surrounds
and partially protects us from solar radiations. In like manner,
the moving changes within the sun generate an eruption of
radiations. This produces a solar magnetic field that spreads
throughout the solar system and beyond. Moreover, a solar
wind of charged particles constantly interacts with the Earth’s
changing geomagnetic field.
