The magnetosphere is the region around a planet dominated by its magnetic field, extending far into space and protecting the planet from solar wind and cosmic radiation. It is formed by the interaction of the planet's magnetic field with charged particles from the sun. In Earth's case, the magnetosphere plays a crucial role in shielding the atmosphere and surface from harmful solar and cosmic radiation, which can otherwise strip away atmospheric particles. This protective barrier is essential for maintaining conditions suitable for life on Earth.
