🌤️ Mission Overview
The 2025 Aviation Weather Mission brings together Civil Air Patrol
cadets (ages 12–20) and senior members across the country to
contribute meaningful aviation weather data as part of a national
collaboration with NASA Earth Science. Participants record real-time
airport conditions, GLOBE Cloud observations, and aircraft details,
supporting satellite collocations provided by the NASA GLOBE Clouds
team at NASA Langley Research Center. These observations help ...

Desde hace unos días la actividad solar, ha tenido unos
comportamientos inusuales, si bien la comunidad científica cataloga
este ciclo como muy activo, haciendo una rectro inspección, con
respecto a ciclos solares anteriores, incluido el ciclo solar 24, la
actividad sin duda ha disminuido muchísimo, en llamaradas y en
tamaños de filamentos magnéticos, más no en tamaños de aguajeros
coronales; un aspecto que se le recomienda a la comunidad, es analizar
las eyecciones de movimiento lento, fruto de esta paradójica actividad
que se evidencia claramente, en registro de modelos ...

Desde ayer 05-09-2024, se han registrado enormes incendios desde
Brasil hasta la Argentina, observables por satélite, de no tomarse
los correctivos con el pulmón de la Amazonas corre el riesgo de
desaparecer, poniendo en peligro la poca naturaleza que le queda al
planeta. Estudios citados por el medio MetSul de metereología de
Brasil, indican que el humo puede influir en la formación de
descargas eléctricas y hay que tomar en cuenta, para estudios
avanzados que los eventos se presentan en zonas de la Anomalía del
Atlántico Sur, que sin duda juega un papel en el tiempo ...

Background
I received my formal training on GLOBE Atmosphere protocols,
particularly cloud observation, in the summer of 2011. In 2016, the
GLOBE Program launched the GLOBE Observer (GO) app, designed for
volunteer science. The GO app is more user-friendly and focuses on
specific observations anyone with a smartphone can make.
The GLOBE Program is structured and education-focused, targeting
students and educators, while the GO app is intuitive and accessible
to the general public. Both contribute valuable data to the scientific
community and enhance public ...

El paso del huracán Beryl, por el Caribe, no solo ha afectado Islas al norte del continente, también afectó a Venezuela, desde ahí hasta Colombia y parte de Brasil, por impacto indirecto, registrado por los satélites del Goes 16- Este, en sus diferentes bandas, con notables lluvias e inundaciones. Día 05-07-2024 , no cabe duda que Beryl plantea serios interrogantes, en la física de la atmósfera de la tierra, en la época actual, desde cambios significativos en la gravedad de la tierra, que pueda estar afectando la presión atmosférica por zonas, ...
