NASA's Discovery of Earth's Ambipolar Electric Field

NASA has uncovered Earth's weak electric field, termed the 'ambipolar electric field,' through data from the Endurance rocket and Svalbard rocket measurements. This field, influencing the ionosphere, shapes the Solar System's evolution and drives the known 'polar wind.' Similar electric fields may exist on Venus and Mars.

The findings reveal particles ejected supersonically into space, experiencing forces exceeding ten times gravity. The half-volt potential change in measurements was vital in defining this unique electric phenomenon.
