Stunning New NASA Perseverance Rover Images Show Mars Clearer Than Ever Before
NASA’s Perseverance rover has delivered one of its sharpest panoramas yet, revealing sweeping Martian vistas from the “Falbreen” site. Taken under unusually clear skies, the mosaic captures distant hills, geologic boundaries, and a mysterious rock perched on a sand ripple. Scientists are intrigued by the site’s ancient terrain, possibly older than Jezero Crater itself, and […]
Megaquake Triggers Rare Tsunami Caught by NASA’s SWOT Satellite
NASA and France’s SWOT satellite has captured rare, detailed measurements of a tsunami generated by a powerful 8.8 magnitude earthquake near Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula. This data, including wave height, shape, and direction, is helping NOAA fine-tune its tsunami forecast models, which are crucial for early warnings to coastal communities. Even seemingly small waves in the […]
