Hydrogen Wall: NASA scientists found out the outer boundary of solar system!

-

NASA scientists have found the outer boundary of solar system and called it the hydrogen wall. Earlier, the space was believed to be a continuous expanse of an imaginary sheet called ether.

The scientists working at NASA think that they have found the outer boundary of our solar system. It was earlier thought to be not properly defined. Now, they have said that their New Horizons spacecraft can see that invisible boundary. They have named it the "hydrogen wall." It is located at the edge of our solar system.

The hydrogen wall has been described by the scientists as the place where bubbles of solar wind cease to exist. The mass of interstellar matter here is very small but strong enough to not let the solar winds to pass through. At the same time, it is not so strong to bust through the solar wind build up. It acts like a wall pressing the solar winds inward.

The sun keeps throwing out jets of matter and energy in the form of solar winds. They travel far beyond the orbit of Pluto. Till now scientists believed that the solar winds, beyond Pluto, merged with the galactic energy in space within our Milky Way galaxy.

New evidence points that the matter and energy carried by the solar winds accumulate in a particular region building hydrogen wall. It is the region where solar matter builds a formation with the interstellar matter. Hydrogen is the most common matter in space.

The Sun is almost wholly composed of hydrogen. It burns to give energy and helium, an inert gas on the sun.Data sent by New Horizons have made NASA scientists believe that the outer boundary of the solar system must be made up of hydrogen. An analysis of the latest evidence gathered by New Horizons was published by the NASA scientists earlier this week.

However, the scientists have warned that the discovery may not be final. They said that New Horizons could actually have detected ultraviolet rays and not a hydrogen wall, as the scientists believe.

                            About  Matter In  classical physics  and general chemistry,  matter  is any substance that has  mass  and takes up space by having  volume . [1]  All everyday objects that can be touched are ultimately composed of  atoms , which are made up of interacting  subatomic particles , and in everyday as well as scientific usage, "matter" generally includes  atoms  and anything made up of them, and any particles (or  combination of particles ) that act as if they have both  rest mass  and volume. However it does not include  massless particles  such as  photons , or other energy phenomena or waves such as  light  or  sound . [1] [2]  Matter exists in various  states  (also known as  phases ). These include classical everyday phases such as  solid ,  liquid , and  gas  – for example  water  exists as ice, liquid water, and gaseous steam – but other states are possible, including  plasma ,  Bose–Einstein condensates ,  fermionic condensates , and  q
