A rendering of the magnetic field lines of the magnetosphere of the Earth. In astronomy and planetary science, a magnetosphere is a region of space surrounding an astronomical object in which charged particles are affected by that object's magnetic field. [1] [2] It is created by a celestial body with an active interior dynamo.
English: Artist's concept of the Earth's magnetosphere. The rounded, bullet-like shape represents the bow shock as the magnetosphere confronts solar winds. The area represented in gray, between the magnetosphere and the bow shock, is called the magnetosheath, while the magnetopause is the boundary between the magnetosphere and the magnetosheath.

The diagram is thoughtfully put together and I learned something from it, not finding myself distracted by crops or labels or pixelation. Plus I'm a sucker for diagrams.--Efbrazil 05:04, 23 May 2013 (UTC) Support I agree that it would make the earth too small if the elements were not cut off the way they are.
The magnetosphere of Jupiter is the cavity created in the solar wind by the planet's magnetic field.Extending up to seven million kilometers in the Sun's direction and almost to the orbit of Saturn in the opposite direction, Jupiter's magnetosphere is the largest and most powerful of any planetary magnetosphere in the Solar System, and by volume the largest known continuous structure in the ...
