Heliosphere: Solar Wind, Heliosphere: Cosmic Rays, Heliosphere: Shock Waves

Scientific paper

Far beyond Pluto - no one yet knows how far - there is a discontinuity in the near-vacuum of space. It marks the edge of the heliosphere, where the diffuse solar wind collides sharply with the tenuous interstellar medium. Some unusual cosmic rays that bathe our planet originate in this region. Now the Pioneer and Voyager spacecraft, their original missions completed, are heading there.
