A troubling pattern has emerged in this summer’s heat: Not only has it broken records, it’s done so often by margins far above the previous all-time highs. These heat jumps are part of a larger shift of climate change seeming to accelerate. Ocean temperatures just reached a new high for the early summer. Sea levels…

A SpaceX rocket just inched closer to the record books. A Falcon 9 vehicle lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California tonight (July 10) at 11:01 p.m. EDT (8:01 p.m. local time; 0301 GMT on July 11), carrying 29 of SpaceX’s Starlink broadband satellites toward low Earth orbit (LEO). It was the 35th…

As scientists warn that a powerful El Niño, a climate pattern pushing temperatures up, could develop in the coming years, new research suggests a controversial form of solar geoengineering might one day help reduce the natural occurence’s most destructive impacts. The study, published this week in Science Advances by researchers at the Scripps Institution of…

There might be a way to geoengineer El Niño so that it wreaks less havoc, scientists say. Adding aerosols to the atmosphere over a particular patch of the Pacific Ocean can increase and brighten clouds in the region, creating a cooling effect. New computer simulations show this can trigger atmospheric changes that might reduce the…

Researchers at Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new way to control how ink dries by adding ultra fine bubbles to ink droplets instead of chemical additives. By simply changing the number of bubbles in each droplet, the team found they could dramatically alter the pattern left behind as the liquid evaporated. The approach could…

There are 2 independent studies of the rate of expansion of universe and both were different and it's off by 8-9 percent so are we so wrong or we are correct and universe itself somehow increased it expansion rate it's been so long for this argument and no answer yet and the measurement is also…
