As noted earlier Kristian Birkeland, reporting in 1903 on his expeditions to the auroral zone, proposed that magnetic disturbances accompanying the aurora were caused by large electric currents flowing down the length of auroral formations. ... Some scientists disagreed with Birkeland and claimed the electrojets did not connect to space but instead their entire circuit lay inside the ionosphere, like that of other ionospheric currents known at the time, believed to be caused by atmospheric tides. ...

Cherechukin A.A., Koledov V.V., Shavrov V.G., Tulaikova A.A., Vasil'ev A.N. Magnetic and structural phase transitions in Ni2+УMn1-УGa (0<У<1) alloys are investigated experimentally. The martensite domains formation under the action of external magnetic field on the surface of polycrystalline Ni2,19Mn0,81Ga specimen was investigated by optical method. ... It is found that the martensite phase formation temperature is enhanced by the order of 0,3 K in magnetic field of 1 kOe. ...

Asteroid 2055 YU55 passes close by Earth; how close did it get? ... As Elizabeth Flock reported: An asteroid the size of an aircraft carrier missed Earth by only 200,000 miles as it flew by Tuesday night the closest an asteroid has been to Earth in 200 years Asteroid 2005 YU55, as it has been dubbed, streaked by at about 30,000 mph, but some scientists and lucky amateur astronomers caught a glimpse in their telescopes, where they saw strange structures on the asteroid\u2019s dark-colored surface. ...
