The Bermuda Triangle of space
Envision floating off to rest when, still with your eyes shut, you're out of nowhere surprised by an exceptional blaze of light. This is actually what a few space explorers have announced when going through the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) – a locale of the Earth's attractive field otherwise called space's Bermuda Triangle. Researchers trust it is connected to the Van Allen radiation belts – two rings of charged particles caught in our planet's attractive handle.
Our attractive field can't be adjusted to the pivot hub of the Earth, which implies these Van Allen belts are tilted. This prompts a zone 200km over the South Atlantic where these radiation belts come nearest to the Earth's surface. At the point when the International Space Station goes through this region, PCs can quit working, and space travelers experience infinite flashes – most likely because of the radiation animating their retinas. In the meantime, the Hubble space telescope can't take perceptions. Further investigation of the SAA will be pivotal for the eventual fate of business space travel.
