2026 Full Moon calendar: When to see the Full Moon and phases
The phenomenon of a Full Moon arises when our planet, Earth, is precisely sandwiched between the Sun and the Moon. This alignment ensures the entire side of the Moon that faces us gleams under sunlight. Thanks to the Moon’s orbit around Earth, the angle of sunlight hitting the lunar surface and being reflected back toContinue reading "2026 Full Moon calendar: When to see the Full Moon and phases" The post 2026 Full Moon calendar: When to see the Full Moon and phases appeared first on Astronomy M

The First Shark Ever Recorded In Antarctica Appeared On Camera And It Was Massive
In January 2025, a deep-sea camera captured a sleeper shark cruising 490 meters below the surface in Antarctic waters — the first shark ever recorded this far south. The 10-to-13-foot shark was moving through near-freezing water off the South Shetland Islands, a region experts long believed was too cold for sharks. Researcher Alan Jamieson couldn't find any prior record of a shark in the Antarctic Ocean. The discovery raises questions: Are warming oceans pushing sharks into colder waters, or hav

Modi pitches India as global artificial intelligence hub at AI summit
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday pitched his country as a central player in the global artificial intelligence ecosystem, saying it aims to build technology at home while deploying it worldwide. Modi’s remarks came as India — one of the fastest-growing digital markets — seeks to leverage its experience in building large-scale digital public infrastructure and to present itself as a cost-effective hub for AI innovation. The summit was also addressed by French President Emmanuel Macron, Google CEO Sundar Pichai and U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres, who called for a $3 billion fund to help poorer countries build basic AI capacity, including skills, data access and affordable computing power.

Livestream from Patagonia falsely claimed to show Antarctica's 'Ice Wall'

But the Antarctic continent has been extensively explored and mapped by scientists and private tourist expeditions, and a review of the full video and the streamer's cruise itinerary shows the footage was actually filmed in Patagonia.

Study finds that dangerous days when weather is prone to fire soaring around the world
What this means is that as the world warms, more places across the globe are prone to go up in flames at the same time because of increasingly synchronous fire weather, which is when multiple places have the right conditions to go up in smoke. In 1979 and for the next 15 years, the world averaged 22 synchronous fire weather days a year for flames that stayed within large global regions, the study found. “These sorts of changes that we have seen increase the likelihood in a lot of areas that there will be fires that are going to be very challenging to suppress,” said study co-author John Abatzoglou, a fire scientist at the University of California, Merced.
