One Strange Rock: Shield. -
Rory and I watched the end of the of ‘One Strange Rock’ episode two: Shield. This program describes the many ways the Earth shields life from the harmful effects of the sun (the protective ozone layer, the magnetic field deflecting the solar wind, the warming effect of greenhouse gases). With stunning imagery the magnetic shield is shown, from space, by the aurora borealis (northern lights). The effects of heat and light unfiltered by the ozone layer are demonstrated and the effects of carbon dioxide on Venus and Mars are warning signs for our own future.
