Initial analyses of satellite images and seismic data by @watershedlab.bsky.social & @kristencook.bsky.social suggest that the collapse of a high glacier caused the flash flood disaster in Nepal www.newscientist.com/article/2586...

We are heartbroken 💔 to see the images and videos coming out of Nepal this morning. Initial footage suggests this was a hugely destructive event originating in glacierized terrain. Our thoughts are with all affected communities and emergency responders. #cryohazards #rasuwa #glaciers #hazards

⛏ #RockyMonday ❓ What is the “oldest rock in Germany” 👉 Short answer: there isn’t a single one. ⏱ But Germany does preserve deep-time fragments that go back almost unimaginable distances! 👇 See pictures 👇 1/2 #Geology #EarthScience #DeepTime #Germany
Text:
"In the Erzgebirge (Saxony), the “oldest rocks” are actually reworked continental crust formed in the Early Paleozoic (~575–480 million years ago). 

These rocks were later heavily deformed during the Variscan mountain-building event (~340 Ma).

So far, that’s “only” half a billion years.

But inside them… scientists found something wilder."
Text:
"Tiny zircon crystals trapped in these rocks contain inherited cores dating up to ~3.0 billion years old.

That’s Archean Earth - more than 2.5 billion years before dinosaurs, and not originally formed in Germany at all.

They are recycled grains from ancient continents, carried through multiple cycles of erosion, subduction, and mountain building before ending up in today’s German basement rocks."

Sowas ist sehr selten wie gesagt.
An S4 (Severe) solar radiation storm is in progress. 

NOAA’s GOES-19 satellite measurements show the ongoing solar radiation storm has intensified to Severe (S4) on the NOAA Space Weather Scales, and it is still increasing.

A Severe (S4) radiation storm is a rare event and exceeds the intensity during the October 2003 “Halloween” space weather storms.

Potential Impacts: 

Increased radiation exposure risk for astronauts and flights on polar routes.

Enhanced risk to satellites, especially those in geostationary orbit, and space launch systems.

Loss of over-the-horizon high-frequency communications in polar regions.

SWPC has notified airlines, FAA, NASA, FEMA, NERC, and other stakeholders to support preparedness actions as conditions evolve.

This significant level has not been observed since October, 2003. Potential effects are mainly restricted to aviation polar routes, high frequency (HF) radio communications in polar regions,

The new vent that opened on the morning of 27 December 2027 on the upper east flank of the Voragine crater at the summit of #Etna, seen in Strombolian eruption on the evening of the 28th. This activity has been continuing over the past 24 hours without significant variations. Seen from south
A jet of incandescent lava fragments shoots from a vent that opened on the morning of 27 December 2025 on the upper eastern flank of the Voragine crater at the summit of Etna, on the evening of the 28th. This type of activity is known as "Strombolian", after the volcano Stromboli in the Aeolian Islands north of Sicily. The snow-covered peak at right is the Southeast Crater, which last erupted in August 2025. View from the town of Nicolosi, on the south flank of Etna.
