Comments on: When a solar storm slammed into both the Earth and Mars in January 2008, scientists were able to directly measure the importance of the Earth’s magnetic field in protecting our atmosphere from oxygen loss. https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/points-of-information/when-a-solar-storm-slammed-into-both-the-earth-and-mars-in-january-2008-scientists-were-able-to-directly-measure-the-importance-of-the-earths-magnetic-field-in-protecting-our-atmosphere-from-oxygen/ Mon, 09 Apr 2012 05:06:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Pzatchok https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/points-of-information/when-a-solar-storm-slammed-into-both-the-earth-and-mars-in-january-2008-scientists-were-able-to-directly-measure-the-importance-of-the-earths-magnetic-field-in-protecting-our-atmosphere-from-oxygen/#comment-47824 Mon, 09 Apr 2012 05:06:15 +0000 http://behindtheblack.com/?p=15914#comment-47824 I have a question.
I don’t know it it will be answered but I’ll try anyways.

Out of all the new Earth like planets being found, how are we going to detect if they have an Earth like magnetic field?
Which I think is essential to a planets ability to support life as we presently know it.

If we are going to eventually colonize one of these new earth planets I think we will need that magnetic field.

if anyone answers this thank you.
