Record Ocean Temperatures Drive Climate Change Impact
In 2024, the world's oceans became hotter than ever, marking a significant shift in global climate patterns. An international research team published a study in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, showing that the temperature of the oceans, including the upper 2,000 meters, has risen to new extremes.
The oceans, which cover 70% of the Earth's surface, absorb around 90% of excess heat from climate change, affecting weather patterns. The heat content in the top 2,000 meters increased by 16 zettajoules from 2023 to 2024, contributing to more severe weather phenomena, such as storms and flooding.

🕷 Sydney Funnel-Web: One Spider, Three Species

⚡️ Rocket Launch Marks New Rivalry Between Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk in Space Race
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has launched his first rocket into orbit as part of a challenge to Elon Musk's SpaceX dominance. The New Glenn rocket lifted off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, aiming to compete in the growing commercial space race.
Both Bezos and Musk are focused on advancing rocket technology to fly more powerful rockets, populate the skies with satellites, and develop private space stations. Bezos’s Blue Origin overcame technical setbacks and launched the 98-meter-high rocket successfully, though it was unable to recover the main booster engine for reuse.
Bezos hailed the achievement, and Musk congratulated him on reaching orbit. The New Glenn rocket is seen as a powerful competitor to SpaceX’s Falcon 9, with Bezos planning to use it for his Project Kuiper satellite constellation. The rivalry between the two could bring down space operation costs, according to experts.
