The failure of the Geotail's final data recorder has forced its mission to end after 31 years in orbit.
in field lines, forcing them to travel around the Earth and pass back out into space its wake. These particles carry so much energy that they could strip away a planet's atmosphere and cause it to lose its water content to space as vapor, were they not blocked by a magnetic field.is now a barren and arid planet that cannot support life is that it lost its own magnetic field around 4 billion years ago, in turn causing the loss of much of its water.
Geotail was also responsible for identifying the location in the magnetosphere where magnetic reconnection takes place. This is significant because this phenomenon is responsible for passing energy and material from the sun toward Earth and helps to create auroras, the beautiful light shows seen in the sky. and successfully identified elements like oxygen, silicon, sodium, and aluminum in the lunar atmosphere.
