NASA's TRACERS data suggest magnetic reconnection shifts in location more than in timing
Twin satellites' data suggest Earth's magnetic reconnection events shift in location more than in timing; further measurements will test it.
TLDR
Magnetic reconnection involves Earth's magnetic field snapping and reconnecting. First results from NASA's twin TRACERS spacecraft suggest the process shifts more across locations than over time at Earth's magnetic shield. More measurements will test that finding.
