The magnetized rocks of Earth’s crust and mantle, also known as the upper lithosphere, accounts for generating 6 percent of the planet’s magnetic field. Data from the European Space Agency’s Swarm satellites was used to create this high resolution map of the “tiny magnetic signals.” Red areas indicate positive magnetic field and blue area are negative.
