An Asteroid Burned Up Over California Just Hours After Being Spotted
- Thursday November 14, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
On October 22, 2024, asteroid 2024 UQ was detected just hours before entering Earth’s atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean, near California. The ATLAS survey detected it shortly before impact, but delayed tracking data prevented immediate monitoring. The European Space Agency’s Near-Earth Object Coordination Centre later confirmed the asteroid's e...

Antarctic Ozone Hole Might Fully Recover by 2066, Claims New Study
- Tuesday November 5, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In 2024, scientists observed a notable reduction in the size of the Antarctic ozone hole, marking it as the seventh-smallest on record. With ongoing efforts to eliminate chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), experts are optimistic that the ozone layer could fully recover by 2066. Factors contributing to this positive trend include a decrease in harmful chemi...

NOAA's GOES-19 Satellite Captures First Images of Solar Eruptions
- Friday October 25, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NOAA's new Compact Coronagraph (CCOR-1), mounted on the GOES-19 satellite, has captured its first images of a solar storm. Launched on June 25, 2024, the satellite provides crucial data on coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the sun. Unlike ground-based instruments, CCOR-1 offers uninterrupted views of the solar corona, aiding in early warnings of p...

NASA Confirms Solar Maximum as Sun Reaches Peak of Its 11-Year Cycle with Heightened Activity
- Friday October 18, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA and NOAA report that the Sun has reached its most active phase in the 11-year solar cycle, known as solar maximum. This period increases solar storms, affecting satellites, astronauts, and Earth's communication and power systems. While the exact peak won’t be confirmed for months, solar activity is expected to remain high for the next year.
