The South Atlantic Anomaly impacts the magnetic field that is responsible for protecting the Earth against radiation and massive energy impacts. Scientists were alarmed after discovering that this “dent” doubled and continues to advance.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) discovered and communicated a list of warnings about the South Atlantic Anomaly (AAS), an area in which the earth’s magnetic field weakens, which generates a greater flow of energetic particles, and could generate direct consequences on the living beings that inhabit planet Earth.
The magnetic field, which is born in the core and expands outside the thermosphere, plays a fundamental role in the land protection since it works as a natural armor that protects us from solar radiation, and the intense and massive energy impacts.
It is a invisible cloak but totally powerful, which has two key points that function as a kind of magnet, the South Pole and the North Polewhich change space every certain time. The biggest problem that worries scientists is that this anomaly generates a more permeable space for harmful particles.

The well-known “dent“in the southern part of the magnetic field, was discovered in 1958 by a group of NASA geophysicists. Although its progress is slow, has a constant rhythmwhich put it as a center of continuous analysis, and which recently revealed that this particularity could put into question risk the lives of human beings.
What is the risk of the South Atlantic Anomaly?
The reports revealed by the POTindicated that this anomaly spreads from Africa to the tip of South Americaand which has recently presented several problems with satellites orbiting in that region. The AAS presents a strong risk in planetary lifesince this “dent” makes the space more permeable for particles harmful to animals, plants and human beings to pass through.
The impact lies not only in living beings, but also in electronic devices that could present failures due to radiation. The European Space Agency (ESA), also joined the investigation to be able to determine exactly the risk of the opening in that place and in other areas of the planet.
A crucial point about this problem is that the researchers pointed out that it began to split into twowhich would mean a double jeopardy and complication. Their negative consequences impact the effective study of space and prevent astronauts from being safely sent to space. International Space Station (ISS).
How long will the “dent” remain?
Achieve exact definition of the permanence of this anomaly, is something completely complicated, since the division found by ESA and NASA scientists determined that would not remain fixed and would tend to move for the Earth.
“Although the AAS is moving slowly, is going through some changes in its morphologyso it is also important that we continue to observe it through continuous missions,” he highlighted Terry Sabakageophysicist at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
