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.
New images show ‘gravity waves’ rippling through the sky from Hurricane Helene
The graphic uses the colors red, yellow and red to show the change in radiance or brightness in the wavelength of light produced by atmospheric airflow on Earth, according to NASA. The most intense waves seen from Helene in the upper atmosphere can be found by looking for the redder the color viewed in the image.
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.
Deadly Hurricane Helene Triggered Enormous "Gravity Waves" In Earth's Atmosphere
Waves on the surface of the sea are an example of gravity waves. Hurricane Helene slammed not just the land but the atmosphere too. The energy and heat coming from the large tropical storm created huge swells recorded at an altitude of almost 90 kilometers ...
Hurricane Helene's gravity waves revealed by NASA's AWE
On Sept. 26, 2024, Hurricane Helene slammed into the Gulf Coast of Florida, inducing storm surges and widespread impacts on communities in its path. At the same time, NASA's Atmospheric Waves Experiment (AWE),
NASA’s Atmospheric Waves Experiment Captures Gravity Waves From Hurricane Helene in Florida
NASA’s AWE captured gravity waves above Florida, triggered by Hurricane Helene, aiding space weather research.
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,
AWE observations of gravity waves from Hurricane Helene (VIDEO)
As the International Space Station traveled over the southeastern United States on Sept. 26, 2024, AWE observed atmospheric gravity waves generated by Hurricane Helene as the storm slammed into the gulf coast of Florida.
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.
‘Massive’ pulses from Helene towering 55 miles were recorded from space, NASA says
AWE recorded the waves Sept. 26 as Helene approached Florida’s Gulf Coast. The storm traveled north after landfall, and four ...
