The Magnetosphere is that area of space, around a planet, that is controlled by the planet's magnetic field. The shape of the Earth's magnetosphere is the direct result of being blasted by solar wind. It does not attract the solar wind but it defends life on our planet by preventing most of the particles from the Sun, carried in the solar wind, from hitting the Earth.

Does the ozone layer protect the earth from harmful cosmic rays?
ewan ko sau Not as much as the magnetosphere does.
Why is Mercury's atmosphere alwayse replaced?
because mercury doesn't have a magnetosphere to protect it and it's to close to the sun.
What does the magnetosphere attract with its magnetic force?
The Magnetosphere attracts charged particles emitted form the sun.
What is earth's barrier against sun?
we have the ozone layer that that acts as a barrier of the earth, ozone layer protects us from harmful effect of ultraviolet light...and the other barrier is what we call the earths magnetic field of magnetosphere which protect us from the sun's solar burst....
Is an atmosphere possible without a magnetosphere Could a planet-sized Faraday cage act as an artificial magnetosphere?
Yes. Mars has a thin atmosphere despite not having a magnetosphere. A planet-sized Faraday cage would probably be impossible as it would likely collapse under its own gravity.
How does the earth magnetosphere protect the earth?
It saved us not to long ago. It protected us from a piece of the sun. If we did not have the magnetosphere, we would have been hit and would have died.
What is the region of the Earth's magnetic field shaped by the solar wind?
Magnetosphere

How does the magnetosphere happen?
If we did not have the Magnetosphere we would die from harmful Solar Wind that the Magnetosphere blocks. The Magnetosphere is like our personal shield along with our atmosphere!
How does the magnetosfera magnetosphere help us?
There are several good articles about the magnetosphere online.http://science.nasa.gov/ssl/pad/sppb/Edu/magnetosphere/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MagnetosphereIn a nutshell, the magnetosphere is due to the iron core and strong magnetic field of earth, and it protects earth from bombardment of cosmic charged particles and solar winds.
How many poles does Jupiter's magnetosphere have?
Jupiter's magnetosphere has four poles.
What is the Earth's magnetic field called?

What is the magnetosphere made of?
the sun and the Earth's magnetic field create the magnetosphere.
When was Magnetosphere of Jupiter created?
Magnetosphere of Jupiter was created in 1973-12.
When was Amalthea Magnetosphere created?
Amalthea Magnetosphere was created on 2006-05-17.
What is the layer inside the Earth that creates the Earth's magnetosphere called?
Earth's core creates the magnetosphere.
