Hurricane Helene Unleashed Powerful Gravity Waves, NASA Video Reveals
"Like rings of water spreading from a drop in a pond, circular waves from Helene are seen billowing westward from Florida," expert Ludger Scherliess said.
NASA Captures Stunning Images of Gravity Waves From Hurricane Helene’s Fury
When Hurricane Helene hit the southeastern United States last month, it caused widespread power outages and devastating flooding on the ground. But as revealed in new NOAA data, the superstorm also generated shockwaves in Earth’s atmosphere.
NASA: Hurricane Helene produced 'enormous' gravity waves in upper atmosphere
A new technology developed by NASA to predict space weather showed that Hurricane Helene produced "enormous" waves in the Earth's upper atmosphere as it came ashore on Sept. 26, the agency says.
NASA Unveils Astonishing Gravity Waves Caused by Hurricane Helene
On September 26, 2024, NASA observed atmospheric gravity waves generated by Hurricane Helene over Florida. This data, captured by the AWE instrument aboard the ISS, helps explain the terrestrial impact on space weather,
Hurricane Helene’s landfall produced atmospheric waves seen 55 miles above Earth
When Hurricane Helene slammed into Florida with 140-mph winds, the impacts on the ground were deadly, and that power reverberated up into Earth’s atmosphere, creating ripples seen by a NASA instrument more than 55 miles above.
See it: Atmospheric waves created by Hurricane Helene's landfall in Florida
A NASA graphic uses data from the Atmospheric Waves Experiment, or AWE, on the International Space Station to show the swells in the atmosphere created by Hurricane Helene's September landfall in Florida.
Deadly Hurricane Helene Triggered Enormous "Gravity Waves" In Earth's Atmosphere
Hurricane Helene made landfall in the United States on September 26, hitting the Gulf Coast of Florida. Its path of death and destruction was monitored in detail from the ground and space, and it was even spotted by an instrument located on the International Space Station.
NASA Says Hurricane Helene Also Impacted Earth’s Space Weather
Hurricane Helene was a devastating storm, ripping through Florida and the East Coast of the United States. NASA is now reporting that it also creates waves elsewhere, namely in the upper atmosphere around our planet.
