Re: New Research from CU Reveals Mars' Lumpy Magnetic Field
"Mars Global Surveyor has found that regions of Mars' crust are at least ten times more strongly magnetized than anything measured on Earth. Brain discovered that these regions of magnetization are so strong, in fact, that they can influence magnetometer readings to altitudes of 600 to 900 miles, or about a third of the planet's radius."
This sounds as if these "mini-magnetospheres" are larger (and stronger) then those on the Moon. I assumed they would be, but I'm I reading this correctly.
And would about twice as strong be about right?
