Science watch: 7 asteroids pass as the ground logs 200 quakes
Above us, 7 asteroids slip past Earth, the geomagnetic field is quiet, 10 space-weather alerts stand in the past month. On the ground, 200 magnitude-4-plus earthquakes, and the day's strongest quake at magnitude 5, and 31 volcanoe
A read from the science desk, looking up and looking down. Above us, 7 asteroids slip past Earth, the geomagnetic field is quiet, 10 space-weather alerts stand in the past month. On the ground, 200 magnitude-4-plus earthquakes, and the day's strongest quake at magnitude 5, and 31 volcanoes are active.
None of it is cause for alarm on its own — these are the planet's background readings, tracked continuously so the unusual stands out the moment it appears.
This is a living briefing, refreshed around the clock as the readings update.
