BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | 47 year old television signals bouncing back to Earth. While searching deep space for extra-terrestrial signals, scientists at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico have stumbled across signals broadcast from Earth nearly half a century ago. Radio astronomer Dr. Venn described how he made the historic discovery after analysing a number of signals originating from the same point in space.
"I realised the signal was in the VHF Band and slap bang in the middle of 41-68 MHz. It was obviously old terrestrial television broadcasts, but they seemed to be originating from deep space. " Responding to questions, Dr Venn was at pains to explain that little green men are not showing repeats of old Earth shows. A BBC team have been working closely with Dr Venn's team to help recover the signals. The BBC will be archiving all the recordings recovered from space and there are plans to broadcast some of the highlights later in the year.

The CSSDP project provides space scientists with access to a wide range of space data, observations, and investigative tools. It provides a seamless, single- point of access to these resources through a custom web portal. To date, more than 350 scientists are registered users of the CSSDP portal. The project integrates data from sources such as the Canadian Geospace Monitoring Program and anticipates serving data from the NASA THEMIS satellite probes, the Canadian High-Artic Ionospheric Network (CHAIN), and the Alberta- based Enhanced Polar Outflow Probe (ePOP) satellite mission. This collection and presentation of space data is used to study the influence of the sun on near- Earth space environment, including phenomena such as geomagnetic storms, which cause the northern and southern lights. Aurora Oval / Globe - Live Aurora Mapping / North Pole.
Kp maps of midnight equatorward boundaries: There are maps for four quadrants of the globe: + North America, + Eurasia, + South America and Eastern Pacific, and, + Africa-Indian Ocean-Australasia. The average equatorward boundary of the midnight aurora is shown for levels of magnetic activity ranging from relatively low, Kp=3, to very high, Kp=9.
Clicking on the map at that location will give the approximate magnetic latitude for that location. (Keep in mind that aurora can still be viewed when it is positioned 4-5 degrees in latitude away from the viewer although it will appear about 20 degrees above the horizon.) These maps were created using satellite observations to determine the average equatorward boundary of the aurora as a function of the Kp index (see above). Using those data, the typical maximum extent of the aurora toward the equator for the hours around midnight for four levels of geomagnetic activity is displayed.

Electric Caverns. 09/07/2011 - Real-time Magnetosphere Simulation A SPINNING CRYSTAL BALL. October 1996 SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Seismologists discover that the inner core rotates Researchers are now probing what may turn out to be the most curious small body the solar system has yet presented for scrutiny: a globe the size of the moon that appears to be a well ordered crystalline entity.
This body is poised little more than 5,000 kilometers away, yet it is completely invisible. Located at the center of the earth, it is known simply as the inner core. Two seismologists have just shown that this strange crystal sphere is turning slowly within the rocky and liquid metal enclosure that keeps it all but hidden from scientific investigation. Geophysicists realised decades ago that a solid inner core exists, but they knew precious little else about it. But during the 1980s, seismologists examining earthquake waves that pierce the inner core made a startling find. Geophysicists have struggled to explain why this grain (or "seismic anisotropy") should exist. At about the same time, Gary A.

Scientists scanning the deep interior of Earth have found evidence of a vast water reservoir beneath eastern Asia that is at least the volume of the Arctic Ocean. The discovery marks the first time such a large body of water has found in the planet's deep mantle. [The World's Biggest Oceans and Seas] The finding, made by Michael Wysession, a seismologist at Washington University in St. Louis, and his former graduate student Jesse Lawrence, now at the University of California, San Diego, will be detailed in a forthcoming monograph to be published by the American Geophysical Union.
Looking down deep The pair analyzed more than 600,000 seismograms — records of waves generated by earthquakes traveling through the Earth—collected from instruments scattered around the planet. They noticed a region beneath Asia where seismic waves appeared to dampen, or "attenuate," and also slow down slightly. "That is exactly what we show here," Wysession said. The Beijing anomaly. Eight Amazing Holes Phase one of world's first commercial spaceport is now 90 per cent completed - in time for first flights in 2013. By Damien Gayle Updated: 06:57 GMT, 7 September 2011 Phase one of the world's first commercial spaceport, which will be the hub for Virgin's consumer spaceflights, is now 90 per cent complete.
The 1,800-acre Spaceport America site, in Las Cruces, New Mexico, is the home base for Virgin Galactic, Richard Branson's most ambitious business venture yet. It already boasts a runway stretching to nearly two miles long, a futuristic styled terminal hanger, and a dome-shaped Space Operations Centre. Flight of fancy? Spaceport America is billed as the world's first purpose-built commercial spaceport The work is now just months away from completion, according to a spaceport spokesman, and is set to be done by the end of the year, well in time for the first expected Virgin Galactic spaceflights in 2013.
Christine Anderson, the newly appointed executive director of the New Mexico Spaceport Authority, told SPACE.com she was 'jazzed' about the progress made so far. Aquarius to Study the Power of Sea Salt. Aquarius to Study the Power of Sea Salt June 7, 2011: A new observatory is about to leave Earth to map a powerful compound of global importance: Common everyday sea salt. Researchers suspect that the salinity of Earth's oceans has far-reaching effects on climate, much as the salt levels within our bodies influence our own delicate internal balance.
An international team of scientists from NASA and the Space Agency of Argentina, or CONAE, will investigate this possibility with the aid of a satellite named "Aquarius/SAC-D," scheduled to launch on June 9th. "Based on decades of historical data gathered from ocean areas by ships and buoys, we know the salinity has changed over the last 40 years," says Aquarius principal investigator Gary Lagerloef.
"This tells us there's something fundamental going on in the water cycle. " Salinity is increasing in some ocean regions, like the subtropical Atlantic, which means more fresh water is being lost through evaporation at the sea surface. 9/4/2011 -- GRAVITY WAVE SENSOR STATION near Washington Nuclear plant and quake epicenter.
