It may take quite awhile for science fiction to catch up with science fact, yet considering the many scientific and technological advances we’ve made to date, many seemingly impossible feats have eventually come to pass. While many others are right around the corner of discovery.

One such example is the supposed existence of portals. In other words, gateways in the cosmos that can transport living beings from one end of the galaxy to another. Perhaps extra-terrestrial lifeforms have been using these doorways to visit our planet this entire time, or perhaps the portals can take us to other dimensions and realms of the Universe altogether.

Star gates, wormholes, and portals have been the topic of interest for conspiracy theorists the World over. Yet big league players with the resources to begin proving these claims true or false, once and for all, are stepping up to plate – such as NASA.(1)

The THEMIS spacecraft used by NASA, as well as a European Cluster probe, have begun to examine the phenomena of portals. This was done by taking a closer look at Earth’s magnetic field. After several studies they announced the discovery of potential hidden portals where the Earth’s magnetic field connects to the magnetic field of the Sun. NASA calls these points of connection X-points, or electron diffusion regions.

During a University of Iowa study funded by NASA, they determined these connections work because of the uninterrupted path that leads from Earth to the Sun’s atmosphere. Through observation of the charged particles that flow through these zones, they noticed an electro-magnetic phenomenon in Earth’s atmosphere.(2)

According to Dr. Scudder at the University of Iowa;

“Magnetic portals are invisible, unstable and elusive. They open and close without warning and there are no signposts to guide us in.”

As far as scientists can determine, the portals aid in the transfer of magnetically charged particles (tons of them), that flow from the Sun. These are also the cause of the Northern and Southern lights and geomagnetic storms.

The video above goes on to explain…

“Portals form via the process of magnetic re-connection. Mingling lines of magnetic force from the Sun and Earth criss-cross and join to create the openings. X-points are where the criss-cross takes place. The sudden joining of magnetic fields can propel jets of charged particles from the X-point, creating an ‘electron diffusing region’.”

With the many advancements and studies underway over the past few years up to the current day, as well as far into the future, perhaps we’ll eventually have access to distant planets and dimensions, and also quite possibly even time-travel.
