Movie ID Title
The substorm begins to subside around 11:30UTC. 3485 THEMIS and the March 2007 Substorm
This movie opens with a view of the five THEMIS satellites (the color dots) moving along their orbits.  We then fade in the 2-D data from the Omidi simulation and zoom in to view the turbulence in the region of the bow shock. 3478 THEMIS explores the Earth's Bow Shock
This movie illustrates the three months of orbital maneuvers which transition the five satellites from their dayside science to nightside science configuration. 3394 THEMIS Orbits: Transitions
This movie starts from a view of the aurora (simulated) over the north polar region and pulls outward to show the THEMIS spacecraft sampling the region of space 'downwind' from the Earth. 3392 THEMIS Orbits: Nightside Science Configuration
This movie looks down onto the north pole of the Earth and the five THEMIS spacecraft travelling along a single elliptical orbit.  The Sun is to the left. 3391 THEMIS Orbits: Dayside Science Configuration
Opening with a view of the aurora borealis, we zoom out to reveal the proposed orbital configuration of the five THEMIS satellites and fade in a GGCM magnetosphere model. 3356 THEMIS Mission and Substorm Simulation
A rendering of the model of the Earths magnetosphere.  The flat ribbons represent charged particles entering the influence of the magnetosphere and being deflected.  The curved lines visible to the right represent the magnetic field lines extending out from the Earth.  The force from the sun pushes these lines into a distinctive tail-like shape.  Finally, the green surface represents a constant value for the magnetic field strength. 3028 A 3-Dimensional Model of the Magnetosphere (WMS)
Projecting spacecraft field measurements along the solar wind reveals structure in the flow. 2863 ViSBARD: The Wind from the Sun
We see the Earth to get a sense of the scale in this region. 2862 ViSBARD: Insights into the Sun-Earth Connection
A brief flight through the magnetotail 2676 Tour of the Magnetosphere
The polar regions begin to brighten due to increased influx of oxygen atoms onto the upper atmosphere. 2445 IMAGE/HENA views Oxygen in the Magnetosphere (blue version)
A view of the oxygen atom flux near the Earths poles at low intensity. 2444 IMAGE/HENA views Oxygen in the Magnetosphere (rainbow version)
Oxygen atoms (green) blowing off from the Earths atmosphere. 2435 IMAGE/LENA Observes Oxygen Atoms in the near-Earth Environment
A profile view of the magnetosphere.  The Sun would be located to the left.  Lines from the Earths magnetic field are stretched out behind the Earth to form the magnetotail. 2391 Magnetosphere II: The Solar Wind Strikes Back!
A profile view of the magnetosphere.  The Sun would be located to the left.  Lines from the Earth's magnetic field are stretched out behind the Earth to form the magnetotail. 2387 The Magnetosphere - Earth Raises its Shields
Magnetic field lines superimposed over density are compared for a 2D global hybrid simulation and a magnetohydrodynamic model of the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction 1393 Global Hybrid Versus MHD Modeling of the Magnetosphere: Density and Magnetic Field
Contour lines of the z-component of the magnetic potential are compared for a 2D global hybrid simulation and a magnetohydrodynamic model of the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction 117 Global Hybrid Versus MHD Modeling of the Magnetosphere: Magnetic Potential
This animation presents correlated measurements and model data for an impact of a magnetic cloud originating from the Sun on the Earths magnetosphere on October 18-20, 1995. 88 Magnetic Cloud Event: October 18-20, 1995
A depiction of some of the Earths (blue) and the Suns (white) magnetic field lines from a global magnetospheric simulation.  The green hemisphere is the inner boundary of the simulation. 72 Magnetosphere Simulation
3-D Anaglyph 10111 Tour of the Magnetsphere in 3D
3-D Anaglyph Reconnection animation 10110 Magnetic Reconnection 2
Electrons travel along the magnetic field lines to the Earth's atmosphere. 10078 Ride the Electron
This movie illustrates how the Solar wind contributes to leakage of oxygen from the Earth through the Earth's magnetic field. 10076 Magnetic Fields
The wind from the Sun impacts the Earth's magnetic field. 10072 Magnetic Reconnection
Closeup view of Earths magnetic fields 10071 View of the Earth's Magnetic Field
View the impact of a coronal mass ejection against the Earth's magnetic field. 10059 A CME Generates Reconnection in Earth's Magnetic Field
View of the Earth's geomagnetic field and following the electrons down to the aurora formation. 10058 Earth's Magnetic Field to Aurora
