Ice sheet coverage at one pole found to influence coverage at the other

They might be tens of thousands of kilometers apart, but ice coverage at the North and South Poles may be more closely related than once thought. Scientists have tapped into geological records to model historical ice sheet changes at either end of the … Continue reading Ice sheet coverage at one pole found to influence coverage at the other

Arctic entering entirely new climate state, concludes new study

The Arctic is one place that’s been hit particularly hard by climate change. Now a new study has shown that the Arctic is beginning to transition into an entirely new climate state, leaving its predominantly frozen state behind.Continue ReadingCategory… Continue reading Arctic entering entirely new climate state, concludes new study

Strange lightning and “mushball” rain could rage in Jupiter storms

With storms constantly raging all over its surface and a Great Red Spot that’s been churning for centuries, Jupiter could be known as the storm capital of the solar system. Now NASA’s Juno mission has discovered two new quirks of these storms – shallow… Continue reading Strange lightning and “mushball” rain could rage in Jupiter storms

Moth eyes inspire anti-icing surface for aircraft, and maybe eyewear

The unique arrangement of nanoscale bumps coating a moth’s eye have inspired all kinds of interesting technological advances, owing to the incredible antireflective properties that allow the eye to absorb almost all the light that hits it. These range … Continue reading Moth eyes inspire anti-icing surface for aircraft, and maybe eyewear

Ancient Mars may not have been “warm and wet” but covered in ice

Modern Mars is a barren world, drier than any desert on Earth. But geological evidence shows that this wasn’t always the case – in the distant past the Red Planet had flowing water. It’s long been thought that ancient Mars was warm and wet, but a new s… Continue reading Ancient Mars may not have been “warm and wet” but covered in ice

Juno Jupiter probe finds glass-like ice on Ganymede’s north pole

NASA has released the first images taken by its Juno deep-space probe of the north pole of Jupiter’s largest moon, Ganymede. Captured on December 26, 2019, the infrared images from the spacecraft’s Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument show… Continue reading Juno Jupiter probe finds glass-like ice on Ganymede’s north pole

Satellites show huge Antarctic iceberg drifted 1,000 km in three years

On 12 July, 2017, one of the biggest icebergs ever seen broke off from the Antarctic mainland. Now on the third anniversary of the event, satellite data has shown that the berg has traveled over 1,000 km (620 mi) and managed to stay relatively intact.C… Continue reading Satellites show huge Antarctic iceberg drifted 1,000 km in three years

Synthetic version of natural antifreeze used in longer-lasting concrete

As readers who live in cold climates will likely already know, winter is not kind to concrete. That could be about to change, though, thanks to a polymer additive that mimics natural antifreeze.Continue ReadingCategory: Materials, ScienceTags: Universi… Continue reading Synthetic version of natural antifreeze used in longer-lasting concrete
