THE PACIFIC IS WARMING — AND THE PLANET IS ABOUT TO FEEL THE RIPPLE. A powerful El Niño is building across the tropical Pacific, with forecasts pointing toward a very strong event later this year
Come along for a tour of Newport Beach's 8 islands set within the iconic Newport Harbor. Don't hesitate to reach out for additional information on any of the islands.
The ocean off San Diego just hit 80°. Florida water in California. That heat is raising water levels, while Pacific hurricanes keep sending huge waves toward the coast. Hotter ocean. Higher water. Bigger surf.
An asteroid is heading straight toward Earth… but then something starts pulling it away. What the asteroid doesn’t realize is that Jupiter is nearby. With a mass about 318 times that of Earth, Jupiter has an enormous gravitational influence on objects passing through the Solar.
Two islands. 2.4 miles apart.
One is in America. One is in Russia.
And they’re almost a full day apart.
The Real Shape of Planetary Trajectories: 3D Helical Solar System This scientifically grounded 3D simulation visualizes the true paths of our solar system, relying on real Kepler elements and J2000 mean anomalies rather than purely artistic interpretation.
The Universe Is Moving. Your Sky Just Hides It. We’re flying through space, yet the stars seem almost motionless. Watch what happens when we zoom out to cosmic scales.
Every second, you move about 230 kilometers through the galaxy. And you never feel it. We picture the solar system like a clock: planets circling a Sun that stays put. But the Sun does not stay put. It is racing around the center of the Milky Way at about 230 km/s (828,000 km/h)
How the Moon Creates Tides - We created this animation by simulating Earth’s tides in an exaggerated way through procedural methods in Blender, making the movement of the oceans much easier to see and understand
How Planets Warp Space - We’ve shown how the planets warp space before — but this time, we created a newer animation to visualize it more clearly.
If you draw a straight line between Earth and Venus every three days for eight years, all those lines draw a five-petal flower known as the Rose of Venus
