A magnetosphere is a layer of the Earth's atmosphere that is filled with magnetic fields. These fields interact with the solar wind, and they influence the way that the Earth's radiation is distributed.
The magnetic field shields the Earth from the harmful radiation of the solar wind.
The magnetosphere defends the Earth from the highenergy particles that are sent from the sun.
