Earths corona described by Professor Vegard findings

The Earth possesses a luminous gaseous corona extending far into space. Spectroscopic studies attribute the glow mainly to electrically charged vapors at high density, reaching about 550 miles above the surface. Vegard notes the Earth’s corona is eccentric and more extensive on the sunward side than elsewhere, differing from the sun’s own corona generated by solar forces.
