The elevation changes may seem small rCo amounting to fractions of inches per year rCo but they can increase or decrease local flood risk, wave exposure, and saltwater intrusion. Tracking and predicting sea level rise involves more than measuring the height of our oceans: Land along coastlines also inches up and down in elevation. Using […]

NASArCOs InSight Finds Marsquakes From Meteoroids Go Deeper Than Expected
https://www.nasa.gov/missions/nasas-insight-finds-marsquakes-from-meteoroids-go-deeper-than-expected/
February 3, 2025, 4:38 PM
With help from AI, scientists discovered a fresh crater made by an impact that shook material as deep as the Red PlanetrCOs mantle. Meteoroids striking Mars produce seismic signals that can reach deeper into the planet than previously known. ThatrCOs the finding of a pair of new papers comparing marsquake data collected by NASArCOs InSight […]

Even by the standards of Io, the most volcanic celestial body in the solar system, recent events observed on the Jovian moon are extreme. Scientists with NASArCOs Juno mission have discovered a volcanic hot spot in the southern hemisphere of JupiterrCOs moon Io. The hot spot is not only larger than EarthrCOs Lake Superior, but […]

January 21, 2025, 5:22 PM
Set to launch within a few months, NISAR will use a technique called synthetic aperture radar to produce incredibly detailed maps of surface change on our planet. When NASA and the Indian Space Research OrganizationrCOs (ISRO) new Earth satellite NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) launches in coming months, it will capture images of EarthrCOs surface […]
