Giant Solar Prominence Erupts, Earth Experiences High-Speed Solar Wind
On August 20th, 2024, a solar prominence larger than the Sun erupted, while Earth simultaneously experiences a high-speed solar wind from a coronal hole; despite these events, only minor geomagnetic disturbances are observed.

Imminent Eruption Predicted for Oregon's Axial Seamount
The Axial Seamount, an underwater volcano 300 miles off Oregon, is expected to erupt before the end of the year due to increased seismic activity (over 2,000 earthquakes in one day in June) and inflation. Researchers are monitoring the volcano using seismometers and fiber optic cables, studying its ...

\"Heat Waves Exacerbate Medication Risks for Millions of Americans\"\
Rising summer heat waves, now three times more frequent than in the 1960s, pose health risks for Americans taking medications affecting thermoregulation, as many drugs can increase vulnerability to heat or reduce efficacy in hot temperatures.
