We cannot observe the way the distant universe accelerates cosmic rays or produces energetic photons, but acceleration processes also occur on our Sun , though on a much more moderate scale. ... That is why such events are often missed by cosmic ray detectors near the equator, where the lowest energies are excluded by the Earth's magnetic field. The best detectors for observing solar particles are therefore those sensitive to the lowest energies of the cosmic radiation. ...

... Voyager 1 completed its Jupiter encounter in early April, after taking almost 19,000 pictures and many other scientific measurements. ... Its outer edge is 129,000 kilometers (80,000 miles) from the center of the planet, and, though the brightest portion is only about 6,000 kilometers (4,000 miles) wide, ring material may extend another 50,000 kilometers (30,000 miles) downward to the top of Jupiter's atmosphere. ...
