En esta ocasión el canal ianuaStella, rescata un documental de la PBS-NOVA y es actual como viene siendo habitual, en la que no suelen ser doblado al español, y nos perdemos en la distribución de TV hispana verdaderas joyas de documentales, como algunas producciones de BBC Horizon (Por ejemplo: "Bye, bye Plutón" o "Hubble a orbit milacre"), PBS-NOVA (Por ejemplo, "E=MC2" o "¿Qué pasa con la gravedad?" y Channel Four (science) de Australia. Pues en este documental de la PBS-NOVA con la emisión en Discovery Channel, nos deleitará con los secretos del campo magnético terrestre, en la que las últimas investigaciones dicen, que se está perdiendo esa capa protectora magnética, y que podría ser un serio peligro para la vida en la Tierra. Y algunos científicos piensan que son cíclicos estos descensos en el campo magnético, y otros piensan que el núcleo terrestre cada vez gira más lentamente lo cual va generando cada vez menos campo magnético, y si sigue esa progresión, puede llegar un momento en la que se pierda la capa protectora magnética y quede como el desolado planeta marciano Marte en la que en su pasado pudo ser una ex-tierra, y sin esa protección su atmósfera quedó expuesto a los vientos solares diréctamente. También veremos en este interesante documental, como se crea un campo magnético, cómo se genera, cómo se producen las auroras, detalles de nuestro núcleo terrestre y otros muchos secretos que nos ayudará a entender la función del campo magnético terrestre.
