Bow Shocks - WIND Magnetospheric Passes

ResourceID
spase://NASA/Catalog/Wind/MFI/BowShock

Description

The following table provides a list of bow shock (BS) crossing times. The 1st column gives the time of the last BS crossing as the spacecraft was leaving the Earth magnetosheath. The 2nd column gives the first full hour which has only unshocked solar wind data in it. The 3rd column gives the last full hour which still contains interplanetary magnetic field data, and finally the last column gives the time of the 1st BS crossing on the way into the Earth magnetosphere.
