NASA’s Endurance mission has finally detected this elusive phenomenon for the first time, solving a 60-year-old mystery and proving this mysterious third energy field exists. 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.
