Thunderstruck: How Four Lightning Strikes in a Row Erased Google Data"Lightning never strikes twice," The Move sang on their 1970album Looking On. But evidently...WardBailey, JeffChristian Science Monitor
Most residents have seen so many hurricanes, it takes quite an ominous storm for residents to heed even a mandatory evacuation order. But Hurricane Ian, which was projected to head into the Gulf of Mexico and make landfall somewhere along Florida's west coast as a major storm, left residents...
Scientists believe that in early times, there were about 1 billion to 5 billion lightning strikes each year on Earth. This means that 4 billion and 3.5 billion years ago, lightning strikes created(创造)110 to 11,000 kg of phosphorus every year!
The most familiar source is probably lightning, though it's actually one of the least common causes. When lightning strikes near a power line, whether it's underground, in a building or running along poles, the electrical energy can boost electrical pressure by millions of volts. This causes ...
Storm damage can arise from multiple factors – not just heavy rainfall, but also hail, lightning, strong winds and flash flooding. A good storm safety plan should address all these possibilities, so you’re storm-ready before danger strikes. ...
Acid rain, also known as acid deposition, is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from power plants, cars and factories. Natural sources like volcanoes, forest fires and lightning strikes also add to the man-made pollution. SO2 and NOx become acids when they...
If you wish to take this math experiment a step further, consider how often the U.S. is struck with lightning each day. NOAA online says 22 million cloud-to-ground strikes per year. If any of you EEs would like to comment or correct my assumptions or math, I welcome you to do so....
But strikes may become a little bit safer, thanks to breakthrough research published earlier this year in the journal Nature Photonics. The new work demonstrated the use of a laser lightning rod to redirect dangerous bolts. More From Popular MechanicsColorized Infrared Images James Webb Playback ca...
The leading cause of death in the Grand Canyon is due to medical problems followed by falling, undetermined causes, drowning, suicide and hyperthermia, or heat-related causes. Over the past decades fatal incidents have also occurred due to motor vehicle crashes, lightning strikes, poisoning and fl...
