A portal is considered a shortcut, a guide, a door into the unknown. But portals, as we know them, are only present in sci-fi movies…right? Well, according to scientists it turns out that portals actually exist, and not only that, NASA-funded researchers at the University of Iowa to figure out what was going on.
It turns out there are ‘hidden portals’ in our planets Magnetic field.
Speaking about portals, “It’s called a flux transfer event or ‘FTE,’,” says space physicist David Sibeck of the Goddard Space Flight Center. “Ten years ago I was pretty sure they didn’t exist, but now the evidence is incontrovertible.”
An example of how science fiction turns into a possibility is a discovery NASA made in the Earth’s Magnetic field as they have discovered there are hidden portals there.
In fact, there are certain areas in Earths magnetic field that is connected with our Sun’s magnetic field, meaning that this allows for an ‘uninterrupted’ path that leads from Earth to the Sun, located some 93 million miles away.
In order to make the discovery, NASA used its THEMIS spacecraft which examined the phenomenon.
According to NASA the strange portals open and close several times a day.
Strangely, UFO hunters have claimed for years that our sun is part of a gigantic Star Gate used by ‘Gods’ or highly advanced extraterrestrial civilizations to travel across the universe rapidly.
According to research, the portals NASA discovered are mostly located tens of thousands of kilometers from Earth, and some of them are small while other gigantic, vast and sustained.
According to scientists, these portals transfer massive amounts of magnetically charged particles that originate in the sun.
There are many unanswered questions: Why do the portals form every 8 minutes? How do magnetic fields inside the cylinder twist and coil?
Magnetic portals are invisible, unstable and elusive. They open and close without warning, and there are no signposts to guide in – Dr. Scudder, University of Iowa.
'We call them X-points or electron diffusion regions,' said University of Iowa plasma physicist Jack Scudder, who is studying them.
'They’re places where the magnetic field of Earth connects to the magnetic field of the Sun, creating an uninterrupted path leading from our own planet to the sun’s atmosphere 93 million miles away.'
'Magnetic portals are invisible, unstable and elusive. They open and close without warning and there are no signposts to guide us in,' said Scudder.

Looking forward to the launch of the MMS mission in 2014, Scudder and his team have calibrated the technology sufficiently to locate the portals.
'We have found five simple combinations of magnetic field and energetic particle measurements that tell us when we've come across a X-point,' said Scudder.
'A single spacecraft, properly instrumented, can make these measurements.'
