Part 5/10:
One surprising aspect of this boundary is the discovery that the heliosphere might have leaks—points where energetic particles are escaping through the boundary rather than being contained. Voyager 2 observed particles leaking out of this shield, suggesting that the boundary isn’t perfectly sealed.
If solar particles are escaping, it raises the possibility that the Wall of Fire could gradually expand or fluctuate over time, potentially affecting the entire magnetic environment surrounding our solar system.
