Storm Muifa seen by NASA's Aqua Satellite continues to move with high intensity towards Iwo Jima, Ogasawara Archipelago. 3-D imaging captures infrared images that show strongest storms in specific areas that can be struck with heavy rainfall.
Formally forming last Sunday, Tropical Cyclone Blanche makes an appearance near Australia. The said cyclone was captured in action by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s Aqua satellite where both visible and infrared images were caught.
As temperatures on the west coast of the United States start to inch closer to that of summer weather, the east coast continues to face winter storms for the record books. In a new image published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) GOES-East satellite just this morning, NOAA and NASA researchers who collaborate on the project reveal another large snowstorm, bringing several feet of snow to the New England territory.
While NASA researchers are still waiting for the initial readings from their newest mission, the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission which plans to give researchers and farmers vital information about the moisture of any given soil on the face of the Earth, another mission has its sights set on the seas this week. Releasing a new image courtesy of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard NASA’s Aqua satellite, researchers at the space agency reveal that while all may seem calm below, the clouds above the Bering Sea tell a tale much more interesting than the waters it hides.
