@thisisancient - Known as the solar wind, this incessant stream of plasma, or electrified gas, has pelted Earth for more than 4 billion years. Thanks to our planet’s magnetic field, it’s mostly deflected away. Most of Earth is shielded from the solar wind, but right near the poles, in the midday sector, our magnetic field becomes a funnel where the solar wind can get all the way down to the atmosphere. These funnels, known as the polar cusps, can cause some trouble. The influx of solar wind disturbs the atmosphere, disrupting satellites and radio and GPS signals.

The dance comprises a 60-second cycle, with the longest pendulum completing 51 oscillations and each shorter pendulum having one additional oscillation than the previous.
Consequently, the 15th pendulum, the shortest, completes 65 oscillations. Although the pendulums initially fall out of sync due to their varied oscillation periods, after 60 seconds, they harmoniously return to their starting positions, prepared to repeat the synchronized dance.
