| May 10, 2011 at 13:00 | comment | added | user1786 | In what respect does having a magnetic field affect a planet's atmosphere? By deflecting solar wind, it may reduce the quantity of high-altitude hydrogen and helium lost, but surely this is a very marginal effect compared to the planet's gravity (determining escape velocity) and atmospheric temperature (determining the velocity of atmospheric particles). | |
