All, If you are interested in space, the ISS and 'whacky aircraft' you will find this interesting with some good photos. After a journey that started at the...
Did folks watch the wave clouds coming over IOM and down to the Mersey? Brilliant in HRPT. I would have seen it all from the ground had I not been on the train...

Hi all Can anyone explain the Phenomenon seen in the clouds east of the Faroe islands Visible on the NOAA 18 pass at 12.48, look forward to any answers. ...
... Faroe ... ======================= Hi Marc, It is like the vortices, where the winds go over land (high ground)and the updraughts get moisture in air, as it...
Surely they are wave clouds formed in the lee of the islands. Anitcyclones rotate clockwise and with high pressure to the south the winds are westerlies. Very...
Thanks for that Adrian, I have just bought the Phillips book of the weather and hope to learn more about the processes that create such phenomenon, what...
Hello All, Would someone be kind enough to take a look at the log file I have attached,and say why the error comes up"Address in use".I have checked the...
Can anyone explain the strange pattern of light and dark in the Irish Sea on 1542 NOAA12 pass? Nothing shows in Met-8. It does not seem to be a cloud formation...

For a decade now, ESA satellites have been continuously surveying fires burning across the Earth’s surface. Worldwide fire maps based on this data are now...
I haven't seen this image, but the chevron is a near-giveaway. This sounds like 'ship waves' (not ship trails), and there is an article,
with images already...
Robert, I've had queries on this over the years, often in the Baltic, but no-one has
ever managed to venture an explanation. By the way, this NOAA 12 image...
Hi Robert. One possible cause. MODIS shows some phytoplankton about, normally a greenish/blue colour plus in the afternoon some low cloud or fog formed. Here...

Robert, I have just uploaded a channel-1 HRPT segment showing the region. I have looked at all the HRPT channels and note the following: The pattern of dark...
Thanks Les - I had no problem with the wave-forms over the Faroes (also IOM and elsewhere in the last two days). It was the Irish Sea pattern that I could only...

Robert, Just killing 2 bids with the same stone. ... From: Robert Moore Date: 06/03/06 09:07:25 I had no problem with the wave-forms over the Faroes (also IOM ...
All, A bit off topic but I suspect I'm not the only one wondering about this who would like to know - and I bet there are several out there who know the ...
Its done via impressing a magnetic field. The magnetism can be 'north' or 'south' (to put it unscientifically. The process of switching allows re-use, but...
John, The secret is in the medium. The metal recording layer can have the encoded
data 'melted out' by a powerful laser (more powerful than a read-only laser) ...
John, You will find all about CD/DVD burning/erasing/recording at this URL http://computer.howstuffworks.com/cd-burner1.htm Lawrence is clearly thinking of...
I stand corrected Les - thanks. I was recalling the construction of hard drives. I once had to sit through a long technical discussion about them and I'm now...
You are not mixing things up at all... There are three methods of making CD's. The commercial CD's are pressed in much the same way as old records used to be...
Andy, I'm extremely doubtful about your assertion regarding magnetism. Where does
your magnetic field come from? Can you provide a link to an informative...
I've done a little research. Andy is describing the Magneto Optical drive, which combines a laser and a
magnetic write head. This is not, however, the...
Just another comment on my previous post.. There was a range of CD - like drives produced by panasonic which made much use of this effect, The drives could...
An alternative explanation might be the tide. I remember from my maritime days that there is very strong tide in the Irish Sea and St George's Channel in...
