                         magnetic flux tubes in magnetosphere boundary region through 
                         observational data obtained from the satellites ISEE-1 and -2, 
                         which were named flux transfer events (FTE). The solar wind 
                         together with the interplanetary magnetic field, both originated 
                         in the Sun, reach the earth magnetic field region, producing the 
                         magnetic reconnection and the flux tubes phenomena. This paper 
                         presents an introduction on the Sun-Earth connection and the 
                         magnetic reconnection process, and mainly the basic concepts on 
                         the tubes generation and formation. The models which describe the 
                         type of reconnection and the tubes signatures, for example, 
                         Russell-Elphic, Lee-Fu, Southwood-Scholer, and the FTE event 
                         characteristics, are presented in a clear and concise way. 
                         Finally, this paper brings an example of the tubes identification
