Sun-Moon-Earth Magnetic Relationship For most people, the moon
is a lump of barren rock that provides us with moonlight, and is
the cause of tides. Along with that, we know that gravity is
less on the moon, allowing astronauts to take floating steps.
Few people know that our moon has a magnetic field, just like
the Sun and Earth have – meaning it isn’t as dead as it appears.
These snippets are from Wikipedia, which states that the
information is still speculative: - Roughly once every Lunar
orbit, the Moon passes through Earth’s magnetotail for
approximately 6 days around full moon. More here. - Interaction
with the plasma sheet causes the Moon’s surface to become
negatively charged. - The moon’s dayside is lightly charged,
while the nightside is strongly charged The relationship is
interesting. We have the Sun which has a magnetic reversal every
11 years or so, and in-between cycles the magnetic field varies
quite a lot. We have the Earth and its wandering magnetic poles,
and various magnetic anomalies. And
