Scientists have been studying the TongaHunga Haapai eruption to learn more about Earths atmosphere. A new study finds that the shock waves that reached space were among the fastestever observed within our planets gaseous shell. These ripples reached speeds of 720 miles per hour while lapping Earth at least six times, it says. Tonga volcano on the island of Tonga has been causing electric currents in Earths ionosphere to flip direction dramatically and surge to five times that of normal peak power. Extreme geomagnetic storms are a form of weather in space caused by particles and radiation from the sun. They pose threats to terrestrial power, confuse GPS satellites and endanger the lives of anyone on the ISS. Read More..

NASA approves the continuation of the ICESat2 space laser after more than 3 years

NASAs Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite2 ICESat2 has found that Arctic sea ice has lost a third of its volume. On the other side of the world,

NASAs Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite2 ICESat2 has found that Arctic sea ice has lost a third of its volume. On the other side of the world, at the opposite pole, new glacial lakes have been discovered deep beneath the Antarctic ice surface. Thats a neat thing about ICESat2 – the scales at which you can observe processes range from very small, like snow blowing around, all the way up to the entire ice sheet. ICESat2 measures the top of the snow, CryoSat2 detects the interface between snow and ice, and together the data tells us not only the depth of the snow but also the sea Read More..

Google has been targeted once again by European consumer groups over its account signup process. The European Consumers Bureau BEUC accuses Google of using vague, incomplete, and misleading wording at every stage of the registration process. This is not the first time that Google has found itself in hot water with European regulators over privacy regulations. In 2020, the CNIL fined Google 100 million euros for refusing to track cookies without the user’s consent. The employee said Google will have to pay three months or an additional fine of 100,000 euros a day to fulfill its order.
