(PhysOrg.com) -- In the first video showing the auroras above the northern latitudes of Saturn, Cassini has spotted the tallest known "northern lights" in the solar system, flickering in shape and brightness high above the ringed planet. http://www.physorg.com/news178303936.html Space & Earth Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:53:17 EST news178303936 When NASA's Aqua satellite flew over the Philippine Sea during the early morning hours today, November 2 infrared imagery saw another new tropical cyclone coming together. http://www.physorg.com/news176395921.html Space & Earth Mon, 02 Nov 2009 15:10:01 EST news176395921 In a Nature letter published July 23, 2009, Norwegian researchers present evidence that the auroras in the Northern and the Southern hemispheres can be totally asymmetric. These findings contradict the commonly made assumption of aurora being mirror images of each other. http://www.physorg.com/news167550308.html Space & Earth Thu, 23 Jul 2009 06:46:11 EST news167550308 (AP) -- When the sun sneezes it's Earth that gets sick. It's time for the sun to move into a busier period for sunspots, and while forecasters expect a relatively mild outbreak by historical standards, one major solar storm can cause havoc with satellites and electrical systems here. http://www.physorg.com/news161026403.html Space & Earth Fri, 08 May 2009 18:33:52 EST news161026403 (PhysOrg.com) -- An international scientific consortium has developed a series of autonomous observatories in Antarctica that for the first time provide critical year-round "space weather" data from the Earth's harshest environment. http://www.physorg.com/news158513978.html Space & Earth Thu, 09 Apr 2009 16:41:01 EST news158513978 It's been a long wait, but it was worth it. The Black Brant XII sounding rocket with the CASCADES II experiment launched and flew through an active aurora display March 20 at 3:04 a.m. Alaska Daylight Time. The successful launch occurred after 20 nights of preparing and then waiting to launch the NASA rocket. The CASCADES II team needed very specific conditions and clear weather for an optimal launch. http://www.physorg.com/news157114040.html Space & Earth Tue, 24 Mar 2009 11:47:42 EST news157114040 (PhysOrg.com) -- Saturn has its own unique brand of aurora that lights up the polar cap, unlike any other planetary aurora known in our solar system. This odd aurora revealed itself to one of the infrared instruments on NASA's Cassini spacecraft. http://www.physorg.com/news145720753.html Space & Earth Wed, 12 Nov 2008 13:59:13 EST news145720753 Self-organization keeps schools of fish, flocks of birds and colonies of termites in sync. It`s also, according to new research, the way cells regulate the final stage of cell division. Scientists at Rockefeller University have shown that a protein-chemistry-based contour map, which helps individual proteins locate the center of their cell without direction from a `master organizer,` is key to ensuring accurate division during mitosis. http://www.physorg.com/news134055939.html Biology Mon, 30 Jun 2008 14:45:39 EST news134055939
