The sun shakes the solar system by sending out dramatic interplanetary shocks, and NASA has observed these shocks for the first time, using its Magnetospheric Multiscale mission. MMS consists of four spacecraft which have been in orbit around Earth since 2015, moving through our planet’s magnetosphere.
