From October 2023 to December 2024 — a period encompassing two solar eclipses across the U.S., two new NASA heliophysics missions, and one spacecraft’s history-making solar flyby — NASA celebrated the ...

4. Atmospheric Optics: Orientation of falling ice crystals. Drop tube shows how hexagons and needles fall. 5. Baroclinic Waves: The rotating annulus experiment (Hadley motion, baroclinic instabilty, ...

The sounding rockets released vapor tracers and pressure sensors at different altitudes across central and northern Alaska during a sudden auroral substorm.

It’s all part of a NASA experiment called Auroral Waves Excited by Substorm Onset Magnetic Events, or “AWESOME,” which seeks to observe how auroras affect Earth’s upper atmosphere.

The experiment, titled Auroral Waves Excited by Substorm Onset Magnetic ... when the aurora goes berserk and dumps a bunch of heat in the atmosphere, how much of that heat is spent transporting ...
