Fans who track the lives of the Big Bear bald eagles Jackie and Shadow via a 24-hour live webcam are now maintaining a vigil known as pip watch.
STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is a solar observation mission. [2] Two nearly identical spacecraft (STEREO-A, STEREO-B) were launched in 2006 into orbits around the Sun that cause them to respectively pull farther ahead of and fall gradually behind the Earth.
The slow solar wind has a velocity of about 400 kilometres per second (250 mi/s), a temperature of 2 × 10 5 K and a composition that is a close match to the corona. The fast solar wind has a typical velocity of 750 km/s, a temperature of 8 × 10 5 K and nearly matches the photosphere's.
Sun outage times are published in local newspapers. As the majority of rural Alaska is served by satellite, population centers like Utqiaġvik , Kotzebue , and Nome suffer from this as well. Nome is the terminus of the annual Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race , and due to its timing, announcements of the finishers are often delayed during these Sun ...
A sunshower, or sun shower, is a meteorological phenomenon in which rain falls while the Sun is seen shining. [1] A sunshower is usually a result of winds associated with a rain storm sometimes miles away, blowing the airborne raindrops into an area where there are no clouds.
Solar Orbiter mission (SolO) was launched in 2020 and will reach a minimum perihelion of 0.28 AU, making it the closest satellite with Sun-facing cameras. [ 10 ] CubeSat for Solar Particles (CuSP) was launched as a rideshare on Artemis 1 on 16 November 2022 to study particles and magnetic fields .
Solarigraph with the sun paths between July 2018 and May 2019 in a street at Valladolid, Spain. Solarigraphy is a concept and a photographic practice based on the observation of the sun path in the sky (different in each place on the Earth) and its effect on the landscape, captured by a specific procedure that combines pinhole photography and digital processing.
The portal was founded by Ivo Lukačovič in November 2014, [1] [2] initially focusing on wind animation. It has since expanded to include various essential meteorological parameters, such as temperature , pressure , relative humidity , cloud base, and additional panels featuring more advanced data.
