Planet Mercury it is one of the few in our solar system that still has an active magnetic field, and researchers do not yet have an explanation for this, their expectations being different. The researchers would have expected that the planet Mercury would remain without its magnetic field not very long after its formation, believing that the core of the planet would have solidified, but in reality it still has a magnetic field, while other planets do not they still have
Planet Mercury this mystery should have been explained by a spaceship that was sent to it by JAXA and ESA, named BepiColombo, and the analyzes that will be done are very important. The researchers want to find out, among other things, what happens to the nucleus in the center of the planet Mercury, and this is because they have to find an explanation for the existence of the magnetic field that still exists there, at such a small distance in relation to the sun.
Planet Mercury: The IMPORTANT Mystery that has NO Explanation Yet
Planet Mercury, unlike the Earth, has a slightly modified magnetic field, not being in the center of the planet, but 400 kilometers to the north, and of course there is no explanation for that either. The magnetic field that the planet Mercury still has helps it repel part of the solar winds and the energy-charged particles that are constantly sent by the star to the planet, being a very important protective barrier.
"Not many planets have a magnetic field. Among the rocky planets of the inner solar system, only Mercury and Earth have one. Mars once had a magnetic field and lost it. Mercury seems too small to have one. However, it still does, even if it is a hundred times weaker than Earth's magnetic field. Scientists wonder what sustains this magnetic field despite the odds stacked against it.”
Planet Mercury it will have everything that happens in the atmosphere analyzed by the BepiColombo spacecraft based on the mission that is taking place in the next period, and everything will help the researchers to learn more about it. The information that the ship will send from the planet Mercury will help the researchers to explain why similar things happen on other planets and there are still magnetic fields, or maybe why they have already disappeared on others.
Planet Mercury it will be visited by the BepiColombo ship after a long journey that will last until the year 2025, if everything goes smoothly, so we still have to wait until all the information appears.
