nasa 2014 continues long-term global warming
Bookmarked 570 weeks ago
the year 2014 now ranks as the warmest on record since 1880 according to an analysis by nasa scientiststhis video shows a time series of five-year global temperature averages mapped from 1880 to 2014 as estimated by scientists at nasas goddard institute for space studies giss in new yorkwhile scientists expect temperatures to fluctuate from year to year the average temperature of the planet as a whole has warmed by about 14 degrees fahrenheit 08 degrees celsius since 1880 this trend is largely driven by increasing human emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmospherethe giss analysis incorporates temperature measurements from 6300 weather stations around the world ship- and buoy-based ocean temperature readings and data from antarctic research stations these measurements are plugged into an algorithm that then estimates average global temperature the computer code for this process is freely available for download from the giss web sitehttp:wwwnasagovpress2015januarynasa-determines-2014-warmest-year-in-modern-recordthis video is public domain and can be downloaded at: http:svsgsfcnasagovcgi-bindetailscgiaid=4252like our videos subscribe to nasa039s goddard shorts hd podcast:http:svsgsfcnasagovvisitunesfor find nasa goddard space flight center on facebook:http:wwwfacebookcomnasagsfcor find us on twitter:http:twittercomnasagoddard

sdo039s view of the aug 21 2017 solar eclipse
Bookmarked 434 weeks ago
while many in the us experienced a total solar eclipse on aug 21 2017 sdo039s perspective observing the sun from earth orbit afforded it a view of a partial eclipsethis movie created from images taken by nasa039s solar dynamics observatory shows the sun first in visible light and then in 171-angstrom extreme ultraviolet light the apparent slight movement of the sun is because sdo has a hard time keeping the sun centered in its images during eclipses with so much light being blocked by the moon the fine guidance systems on sdo039s instruments need to see the whole sun in order keep the images centered from one exposure to the nextonce the transit was over the fine guidance systems started back up once again providing steady images of the suncredit: nasasdothis video is public domain and along with additional graphics may be downloaded from nasa goddard039s scientific visualization studio at: https:svsgsfcnasagov12688if you liked this video subscribe to the nasa

nasa sdo: year 5
Bookmarked 566 weeks ago
february 11 2015 marks five years in space for nasa039s solar dynamics observatory which provides incredibly detailed images of the whole sun 24 hours a day capturing an image more than once per second sdo has provided an unprecedentedly clear picture of how massive explosions on the sun grow and erupt ever since its launch on feb 11 2010 the imagery is also captivating allowing one to watch the constant ballet of solar material through the sun039s atmosphere the coronain honor of sdo039s fifth anniversary nasa has released a video showcasing highlights from the last five years of sun watching watch the movie to see giant clouds of solar material hurled out into space the dance of giant loops hovering in the corona and huge sunspots growing and shrinking on the sun039s surfacethe imagery is an example of the kind of data that sdo provides to scientists by watching the sun in different wavelengths and therefore different temperatures scientists can watch how material courses through the corona which holds clues to what causes eruptions on the sun what heats the sun039s atmosphere up to 1000 times hotter than its surface and why the sun039s magnetic fields are constantly on the movefive years into its mission sdo continues to send back tantalizing imagery to incite scientists039 curiosity for example in late 2014 sdo captured imagery of the largest sun spots seen since 1995 as well as a torrent of intense solar flares solar flares are bursts of light energy and x-rays they can occur by themselves or can be accompanied by what039s called a coronal mass ejection or cme in which a giant cloud of solar material erupts off the sun achieves escape velocity and heads off into space in this case the sun produced only flares and no cmes which while not unheard of is somewhat unusual for flares of that size scientists are looking at that data now to see if they can determine what circumstances might have led to flares eruptions alonegoddard built operates and manages the sdo spacecraft for nasa039s science mission directorate in washington dc sdo is the first mission of nasa039s living with a star program the program039s goal is to develop the scientific understanding necessary to address those aspects of the sun-earth system that directly affect our lives and societythis video is public domain and can be downloaded at: http:svsgsfcnasagovgoto11742like our videos subscribe to nasa039s goddard shorts hd podcast:http:svsgsfcnasagovvisitunesf0004_indexhtmlor find nasa goddard space flight center on facebook:http:wwwfacebookcomnasagsfcor find us on twitter:http:twittercomnasagoddard

tess satellite discovered its 1st world orbiting 2 stars
Bookmarked 309 weeks ago
researchers working with data from nasas transiting exoplanet survey satellite tess have discovered the missions first circumbinary planet a world orbiting two stars the planet called toi 1338b is around 69 times larger than earth or between the sizes of neptune and saturn it lies in a system 1300 light-years away in the constellation pictorthe stars in the system make an eclipsing binary which occurs when the stellar companions circle each other in our plane of view one is about 10 more massive than our sun while the other is cooler dimmer and only one-third the suns mass toi 1338bs transits are irregular between every 93 and 95 days and vary in depth and duration thanks to the orbital motion of its stars tess only sees the transits crossing the larger star the transits of the smaller star are too faint to detect although the planet transits irregularly its orbit is stable for at least the next 10 million years the orbits angle to us however changes enough that
