bow shock

1 What Causes a Shooting Star? Shooting stars occur when a meteor enters Earth's atmosphere, causing a bow shock that heats and lights up both the debris and the surrounding air due to their high-speed collision.

2 This creates a bright streak in the sky due to the phenomenon called bow shock, where the debris compresses and heats the atmosphere in front of it, making both the debris and air glow.

3 BepiColombo also measured the planet’s relatively small magnetosphere – including the magnetopause and the bow shock, areas where the magnetic field meets the solar wind.

4 The bow shock seems to have been moving outward as Juno passed through it, the researchers say.

5 This wind expands, slams into the surrounding dust, and sculpting it into this giant bow shock formation.

6 The next structure that's expected to exist is the bow shock, but that's likely to be over 100 AU farther out.

7 However, the spacecraft only encountered the bow shock on one orbit out of many, which has led researchers to conclude that the magnetosphere was expanding during that time.

8 Juno entered the magnetosphere on June 24, 2016, and encountered what is known as a bow shock—a kind of stationary shock wave where the magnetic field begins to drive away solar wind particles.

10 This is because it is at the cusp that magnetic field-lines stream down towards the ground,acting as paths for electrons and protons that have slipped past the bow shock.
