The magnetosphere is shaped like a comet in response to the dynamic pressure of the solar wind. It is compressed on the side toward the sun to about 10 Earth radii ands is extended tail-like on the side away from the Sun 60-100 Earth radii. The magnetosphere deflects the flow of most solar wind particles around the Earth, There are two kinds of transient variation, the first includes relatively small and regular daily variation, and the second is the disturbances of a more violent nature known as geomagnetic storms. Alexander von Humboldt was the first to discover the dependency of magnetic intensity on latitude and observed the geomagnetic field at various locations at Earth. The variation in geomagnetic field is known as geomagnetic storm. The magnetosphere is filled with tenuous plasmas. (Chen,J.1998)1. There was a technical difficulty observed by scientists, that the solar wind/interplanetary magnetic field system is not homogenous observed at any given time by two or more satellite. We hope that some future space mission will solve this problem.
