Heliosphere

Inside what is known as the heliosphere, the pressure from the energetic stream of charged particles emitted by the sun exceeds that in interstellar space. ❋ Lawrence Krauss (2011)

The heliosphere is immensely strong and extends far beyond the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto. ❋ Unknown (2009)

It slows as it begins to collide with the interstellar medium, and the point where the solar wind slows down is the termination shock; the point where the interstellar medium and solar wind pressures balance is called the heliopause; the point where the interstellar medium, traveling in the opposite direction, slows down as it collides with the heliosphere is the bow shock. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The boundaries of the heliosphere is the location of the limits of my experimental range. ❋ Cjohnson (2006)

At the perimeter of the heliosphere is the heliosheath, a turbulent region at the outer edge of the solar system. ❋ Unknown (2011)

This solar wind inflates a giant bubble in interstellar space called the heliosphere -- the region of space dominated by the Sun's influence in which the ❋ Unknown (2010)

"We have gotten to the point where the wind from the Sun, which until now has always had an outward motion, is no longer moving outward; it is only moving sideways so that it can end up going down the tail of the heliosphere, which is a comet-shaped-like object," said Dr Stone, who is based at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California. ❋ Unknown (2010)

This solar wind inflates a giant bubble in interstellar space called the heliosphere -- the region of space dominated by the Sun's influence in which the Earth and other planets reside. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The IBEX mission just completed the first global maps of these protective layers called the heliosphere through a new technique that uses neutral atoms like light to image the interactions between electrically charged and neutral atoms at the distant reaches of our Sun's influence, far beyond the most distant planets. ❋ Unknown (2009)

McComas, a space scientist at the institute, has spent much of his career fascinated with the sun and the million-mile-per-hour solar wind that it blows out in all directions, radiating heat that warms the Earth and creating a huge magnetic field called the heliosphere around the entire solar system. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The Sun's protective bubble, aka the heliosphere, is shrinking. ❋ Unknown (2008)

This bubble known as the heliosphere shields against most dangerous cosmic radiation that would otherwise interfere with human spaceflight. ❋ Unknown (2008)

IBEX will be responsible for mainly taking images to help map the heliosphere, which is the main area that has solar wind. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The heliosphere is a bubble of magnetism springing from the sun and inflated to colossal proportions by the solar wind. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The heliosphere is our solar system's first line of defense against galactic cosmic rays. ❋ Unknown (2008)

IBEX plans to create an all-sky map of the interaction between particles from the solar wind, called the heliosphere, and the material in the galaxy beyond our solar system. ❋ Unknown (2008)
