Substorms => sunstorms? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.105.245.11 ( talk • contribs) 11:54, 19 February 2007

THEMIS (satellite) → THEMIS — Title is somewhat misleading, as it implies singularity, when THEMIS actually consists of five satellites. Seeing as THEMIS redirects here, it is probably best to use that as the title. —GW_Simulations User Page | Talk 08:03, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia's naming conventions.Saw that the article requested update for current events (though, I wasn't sure if the additions were sufficient to remove the template, so I've left the update template in there for someone else to decide). Hopefully the additions are pretty non-controversial, as they all came from NASA. Added the paragraph to the Mission Status section. Hopefully that's the right place for it. Feel free to add other verifiable mission results (before or after), as needed. Mgmirkin ( talk) 19:51, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
Since there was some minor controversy over my use of the term "Birkeland current" as applied to the THEMIS finding over on the Birkeland current article, I've more fully explained the reasoning for including the term and the specific refrences, which should be non-controversial. In an effort to avoid such a misunderstanding on this page, I'll copy the relevant portions of the discussion. Mgmirkin ( talk) 07:35, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
The fact that the articles do not use the two words "Birkeland current" does not negate the fact that they precisely fit the description given in the opening paragraph of the Birkeland current article (IE, "field-aligned currents").
With respect to the two articles on the THEMIS discovery:
Hopefully, the above should clear up any confusion in advance, should similar questions arise on this article. Mgmirkin ( talk) 07:35, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Added a brief, self-explanatory description of events that transpired in Feb 2008 concerning the trigger mechanism of magnetospheric substorms. Derekmcd ( talk) 21:28, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

somebody needs to write more about this breach that was discovered in the magnetosphere —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.108.114.107 ( talk) 10:33, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
