The field works alongside gravity and magnetism as one of Earth's fundamental forces, launching particles into space and playing a crucial role in keeping Earth habitable - protecting its delicate balance and helping our planet avoid the same unfortunate fate as Venus. ▀▀▀▀▀▀ Subscribe to our new channel!
