Major Disruption Has Left Arctic Polar Vortex Away from North Pole, Scientists Alert
- Tuesday April 8, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
As the polar vortex fades, temperatures in Northern Europe, portions of Asia, and the eastern United States will be below average. Temperatures for the last week of March were pretty normal across the eastern U.S., but the latest forecasts do predict increased chances of below-normal temperatures for the next week.

James Webb Telescope Captures Neptune’s Auroras in Stunning Detail
- Monday March 31, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has provided the first-ever direct images of Neptune’s auroras, revealing surprising details about the ice giant’s atmosphere. Unlike auroras on Earth, Jupiter, or Saturn, Neptune’s auroras appear across unexpected locations due to its tilted and offset magnetic field. Scientists also detected the presence of H...

NASA to Launch Three Rockets in Alaska to Study Auroral Substorms’ Impact
- Saturday March 29, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA is conducting a rocket experiment from Poker Flat Research Range in Alaska. Three rockets will launch within a three-hour window to study how auroral substorms influence the Earth's upper atmosphere. Scientists will observe whether auroras drive vertical convection or if acoustic-buoyancy waves spread their energy over a wider region. Vapour t...

Astronaut Captures Rare ‘Gigantic Jet’ Lightning Extending 50 Miles Above Earth
- Thursday March 6, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A rare ‘gigantic jet’ lightning was captured by an astronaut aboard the ISS on November 19, 2024. This massive bolt extended nearly 50 miles into the atmosphere, likely originating from a thunderstorm near New Orleans. The image, later discovered in NASA’s archives, highlights an unusual lightning event that travels upwards instead of strikin...

Private Venus Mission Plans to Retrieve Cloud Samples for Life Research
- Thursday March 6, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A privately-led space mission is being developed to retrieve and analyse cloud samples from Venus. Scientists believe the planet’s sulfuric acid clouds might sustain organic molecules necessary for life. The mission, named Morning Star, involves deploying probes to collect mist from Venus' atmosphere. The collected samples would be returned to Ea...

Scientists Discover Declining Global Ocean Evaporation Amid Rising Temperatures
- Tuesday February 25, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Recent research has revealed a decline in global ocean evaporation since 2008, challenging traditional climate models. Despite increasing sea surface temperatures, evaporation rates have decreased across two-thirds of the world's oceans. Scientists attribute this unexpected trend to reduced wind speeds, or "wind stilling," and shifts in atmospheric...

New Farm Fertilizer Could Remove CO2 from Air, Improve Soil Quality
- Friday February 21, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Researchers have identified a method to accelerate carbon mineralisation using calcium silicates in farm fertilizers. The process could sequester billions of tons of CO2 while benefiting soil health. Unlike traditional magnesium silicates, calcium silicates react faster with CO2, making the approach more efficient. Scientists are exploring ways to ...

Curiosity Rover Finds Evidence of Liquid Water on Mars, Expanding Habitability Timeline
- Tuesday February 18, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Reports from NASA’s Curiosity rover reveal evidence of ancient liquid water on Mars, challenging previous models. Images from Gale Crater show wave-like ripples, similar to Earth’s lakebeds. Scientists suggest the findings indicate Mars once had a denser atmosphere, which allowed liquid water to exist longer than previously believed. This disco...

NASA’s Curiosity rover has captured rare iridescent clouds drifting across the Martian sky, observed at high altitudes in twilight conditions. These carbon dioxide ice clouds were seen forming between 60 and 80 kilometres above the surface before evaporating as they descended. Scientists believe their presence hints at unknown cooling mechanisms ...
