Studies Jack Scudder, scientist in plasma physics from the University of Iowa, has led to secret portals, Windows that in a magnetic field. According to his report, published on the website Phys.org there were some "X" in the magnetosphere of the Earth. In these places the magnetic field of our planet and the Sun collide, creating between continuous path length 93 million miles. According to physics, these "point X" elusive, are small, temporary, and are formed and disappear in an unpredictable way.

"Instead of rejected in hand, education in a magnetic field allow solar particles get to the top surface of the Earth's atmosphere. These charged particles may be responsible for geomagnetic storms and auroras" - said Jack Scudder.

Several years ago the existence of these "X" was not proven. "Ten years ago, I was quite sure that they do not exist, but now the evidence is irrefutable" - said Dr. David Sieber from Gadarcha Space flight center in 2008. Since then, the main problem was to find the most portals, since no information on their external data not. But now Dr. Scudder sure that found a way to quickly locate the "X". He did this on the basis of research conducted ten years ago, the spacecraft Polar, launched by NASA in 1996.

"Polar in the late 1990s spent a lot of time in the Earth's magnetic field and are faced with many "X". Using data from Polar, we found five simple combinations of the magnetic field and charged around him particles that tell us the location of these "X" - said Dr. Jack Scudder. "This new approach to search portals reduces the time required for future research". Recall that the work of the Polar spacecraft was stopped in 2008, but he still remains in orbit.

In 2014, will be launched Magnetospheric multiscale mission from NASA, which will involve four equipped with various sensors of the spacecraft. Its goal is to study the secret portals, to which the spacecraft and go.
