I’d be fascinated to know if this thing is found around other planets.

Not all planets have a magnetosphere either. It’s hard to tell whether that’s what they are talking about. I don’t think it is, but you never know.

The magnetosphere is what keeps solar wind from frying us. When you have heavy sunspot activity, the interaction between the magnetosphere and the solar wind is what causes the stripping of photons to occur, and the ‘northern lights’ aurora that is created at the poles.

Nuclear blasts cause something similar. The higher the gamma radiation, the more of an auroral light show gets put on. The weird part is that at a point symmetrical on a North - South basis from the equator, you get the same aurorial light show. Nuke something at 45N latitude, you get a light show at 45S latitude.

Weird, no?
