Two fluxes from a flare and a coronal hole on 25 to 26 November 1977 were observed aboard the Prognoz-6 satellite. A comparative analysis is presented of the magnetic and plasma data based on these observations and observations of other Soviet and American spacecraft which were located at that time near a line between the Sun and the Earth. The Prognoz-6 data recored disturbances in the magnetic field and plasma near the Earth during passage of the isolated flare flux and the quasisteady flux from the coronal hole. A perpendicular to the head of the shock wave of the flare flux was found. The magnetic cloud from the flare was measured over a period of 19 hours as an area of relatively strong field, sparse plasma with near regular variations of all B components. The normal and inner structure of the magnetic cloud magnetopause were measured. More than 10 intersections with the leading edge of the magnetospheric shock wave were recorded while the geomagnetosphere was within the magnetic cloud, indicating an increase in the cross section of the transient area as the magnetosphere and cloud interacted. The boundary of the quasisteady flux was identified and had almost the same changes in plasma and magnetic field parameters as the flare flux boundary.
