Russia’s Colossal Earthquake May Have Ignited Multiple Volcanoes

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2026-01-07 03:55:09

The sixth strongest earthquake ever recorded struck Russia’s far east Kamchatka Peninsula on July 29 and has seemingly triggered a string of nearby volcanoes. According to the United States Geological Survey, it’s not uncommon for large earthquakes to cause volcanic activity, though volcanoes will only erupt if they were already close to erupting on their own. Depending on its magnitude, the earthquake must also occur within a certain distance from the volcano. Klyuchevskaya, one of the highes

The 1090 Megahertz Riddle: A Guide to Decoding Mode S and ADS-B Signals

news.ycombinator.com Junzi Sun 2026-01-03 22:54:34

In the last twenty years, aircraft surveillance has moved from controller-based interrogation to automatic broadcast. The Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is one of the most common methods for aircraft to report their state information like identity, position, and speed. Like other Mode S communications, ADS-B makes use of the 1090 megahertz transponder to transmit data. The protocol for ADS-B is open, and low-cost receivers can easily be used to intercept its signals. Many rec

More than a decade after Hurricane Sandy flooded the East Coast and killed over 200 people, a new study has revealed the storm’s lasting impact on mortality risk among older adults.

If you’re in the business of selling audio gear with a Sonos logo on it, you may be feeling a little more heat than usual.

I tried a few different lemon eucalyptus bug sprays, and Natrapel came out on top.
