NOAA Report: The Last 400 Months In a Row on Earth Have Been Warmer Than Average If you somehow think climate change is a hoax, here’s some more science to chew on. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released its global climate report for the month of April, which was the third warmest April since records started in 1880. A separate report from NASA came to the same conclusion. More importantly, it marks the 400th consecutive […] Weather Mike Lavery | May 24, 2018 0 Comments

Brain Post: Areas of Canada are “Missing” Gravity | Canadians Have Been Cheating… In the 1960’s, scientists started charting the Earth’s gravitational field. They were looking for inconsistencies. They found what they were looking for. It was discovered that Earth’s gravitational field varied quite a lot. In Canada, they found areas that were “missing” gravity. The Hudson bay is highlighted as a zone in Canada where gravity is much weaker than other […] Brains SnowBrains | May 7, 2013 5 Comments
7 Places You Will Not Believe are Real The Earth never ceases to amaze us. It now seems that the only limits to our amazement exist somewhere between our computer screens and a photographer’s hands. As great adventurers and great photographers continue to reach deeper and deeper into Earth’s unknowns and continue to find new perspectives on everyday life, we all benefit from the visual evidence of our […] SnowBrains | May 1, 2013 4 Comments
Brain Post: How NASA’s Curiosity Has Proven That Mars Once Had an Atmosphere Why is it significant that NASA’s Curiosity now has more proof that Mars once had an atmosphere? Because if Mars once had an atmosphere, then there was likely flowing water, and therefore a chance that there could have been life. “Scientists think that the climate on Mars 3.5 billion years ago was similar to that of early Earth: warm and […] Brains Miles Clark | April 12, 2013 9 Comments
Brain Post: How Tall Can Mountains on Earth Get? | Great Educational Video This video is a very educational 1 minute and 45 seconds of plate tectonics, gravity, rock density, erosion, history, geology, and Mars geography. To be honest, I’ve never heard any kind of discussion like this before. How tall can a mountain get on Earth? I figured they could get pretty tall. Especially considering Olympus Mons on Mars is 90,000 feet […] Brains Miles Clark | April 11, 2013 1 Comment
Brain Post: Is NASA Obsessed with Mars? | 50% of All Planetary Missions Go to Mars Nasa has decidedly become obsessed with Mars. 7 of the 14 planetary missions that have been sent or are scheduled to be sent [1997-2020] to planets (or asteroids) are heading to Mars. NASA will spend $4.53 billion on missions to Mars by the year 2020. The obvious question is: Q: “What the hell does NASA want with Mars?” A: “They […] Brains SnowBrains | March 28, 2013 5 Comments
