The "Bermuda Triangle of space," also known as the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), is a region above the South Atlantic Ocean where Earth's magnetic field is weaker, causing increased radiation exposure and electronic malfunctions for spacecraft. This area is a particularly challenging location for satellites and spacecraft to navigate due to the effects of charged particles trapped within the weakened magnetic field.
