Soil moisture and ocean salinity satellite ready for launch
A new European Earth observation satellite will be launched in the early hours of Monday morning (2 November 2009) from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northern Russia. View More (2009-10-30)
Satellite Image Shows Eastern U.S. Severe Weather System
A powerful cold front moving from the central United States to the East Coast is wiping out spring-like temperatures and replacing them with winter-time temperatures with powerful storms in between. An image released from NASA using data from NOAA's GOES-13 satellite provides a stunning look at the powerful system that brings a return to winter weather in its wake.

NASA Scientists Closer to Timely Space Weather Forecasts
Scientists funded by NASA have made big strides in learning how to forecast "all clear" periods, when severe space weather is unlikely. The forecasts are important because radiation from particles from the sun associated with large solar flares can be hazardous to unprotected astronauts, airplane occupants and satellites.

Macroweather is what you expect
While short-term weather is notoriously volatile, climate is thought to represent a kind of average weather pattern over a long period of time. View More (2013-02-26)
NASA study suggests extreme summer warming in the future
A new study by NASA scientists suggests that greenhouse-gas warming may raise average summer temperatures in the eastern United States nearly 10 degrees Fahrenheit by the 2080s. View More (2007-05-10)
GOES-13 Satellite Eyeing System With a High Risk of Severe Weather
A low pressure area currently over northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin has created conditions that call for a forecast of severe weather in the eastern third of the U.S. today and one area is even labeled "high risk." The GOES-13 Satellite captured a visible image of the system today as daytime heating was boiling up strong and severe thunderstorms. View More (2011-04-27)
Regional warming-induced species shift in NW Mediterranean marine caves
The north-western Mediterranean Sea has a high biodiversity reflecting a mixture of temperate and subtropical species. But this basin already shows signs of large-scale warming. Marine cave communities with endemic and specialised species are particularly at risk since they are naturally fragmented and more sensitive to perturbations. In the April issue of Ecology Letters, Chevaldonné and... View More (2003-04-08)
Ariane 5 and Soyuz to launch two Australian satellites from the Guiana Space Centre
As they announced the signing of the contract by Arianespace for the launch of two Australian satellites, Optus D1 and Optus D2, on Ariane 5 and Soyuz from the Guiana Space Centre, ESA Director General Jean-Jacques Dordain and the Director General of the Federal Space Agency (Russia), Anatoli Perminov, declared themselves very satisfied with the contract, which showed that ESA Member States had...

Catching Space Weather in the Act
Close to the globe, Earth's magnetic field wraps around the planet like a gigantic spherical web, curving in to touch Earth at the poles. But this isn't true as you get further from the planet. View More (2011-02-18)
Rapid temperature increases above the Antarctic
A new analysis of weather balloon observations from the last 30 years reveals that the Antarctic has the same 'global warming' signature as that seen across the whole Earth, but is three times larger than that observed globally. View More (2006-03-31)
Safer navigation means more helicopters saving lives
Helicopter Emergency Services (HEMS) deal with emergency evacuations and inter-hospital transport across Europe. Improved navigation information from EGNOS could mean fewer cancelled flights due to adverse weather. Although most modern helicopters have Instrumental Flight Rules (IFR) capability this is not used because IFR are not adapted to helicopter flight characteristics. As a result almost...

Exclusive interview with lead spacewalker on Endeavour's final mission
In an exclusive interview with Physics World, astronaut Drew Feustel gives a vivid account of his two missions into space and recalls his determination to make his childhood ambition - space flight - come true. View More (2012-02-23)
Texas A&M prof to predict weather on Mars
Is there such a thing as "weather" on Mars? There are some doubts, considering the planet's atmosphere is only 1 percent as dense as that of the Earth. View More (2009-11-05)
Snow from space: University of Leicester releases satellite images of snow-bound UK
Earth observation scientists at the University of Leicester have recorded stunning images of the UK's winter landscape by orbiting satellites. View More (2010-12-06)
NOAA and NASA's Next Generation Weather Satellite May Provide Earlier Warnings
A new satellite that will detect the lightning inside storm clouds may lead to valuable improvements in tornado detection. View More (2013-03-01)
Satellite shows regional variation in warming from sun during solar cycle
A NASA satellite designed, built and controlled by the University of Colorado at Boulder is expected to help scientists resolve wide-ranging predictions about the coming solar cycle peak in 2012 and its influence on Earth's warming climate, according to the chief scientist on the project.

RAS PN 02/25 Second Generation Weather Satellite Set For Launch
Recent floods in the UK and across much of Europe seem to support suggestions that our planet's weather is becoming increasingly extreme and unpredictable. Certainly, there could hardly be a better time for the launch of a new, state-of-the-art weather satellite. The first in a series of Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) spacecraft is scheduled for launch from Kourou spaceport in French Guiana on... View More (2002-08-22)
New clues to air circulation in the atmosphere
Air circulates above the Earth in four distinct cells, with two either side of the equator, says new research out today (21 August) in Science. View More (2008-08-22)
Every cloud has a silver lining: Weather forecasting models could predict brain tumor growth
Ever wondered how meteorologists can accurately predict the weather? They use complex spatiotemporal weather models, i.e. mathematical equations that track the motions of the atmosphere through time and space, and combine them with incoming data streams from weather stations and satellites.

Scientific breakthrough will help protect astronauts and spacecraft
A breakthrough by a team of British, US and French scientists will help protect astronauts, spacecraft and satellites from radiation hazards experienced in space. View More (2005-09-08)
