Earthquakes are natural phenomena caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, resulting in seismic waves. This release of energy can occur due to tectonic plate movements, volcanic activity, or human-induced activities like mining. The severity of earthquakes is measured on the Richter scale or moment magnitude scale. They can lead to various effects, such as ground shaking, surface rupture, and sometimes tsunamis if they occur underwater. Preparedness and understanding…

Explore the majestic wildlife and amazing sceneries captured in these new pics. Venture into the wild with these beautiful vistas and amazing views. Grateful to wildlife photographers for bringing the wild to us.

You also often have to be able-bodied and quite fit to go on such adventures. That is why so many of us are so…

Learn about the fascinating high altitude upper atmospheric phenomena associated with thunderstorms known as red sprites and blue jets. Discover how these rare optical phenomena are captured on camera and their unique characteristics.

Red sprites and blue jets are very high altitude upper atmospheric phenomena associated with thunderstorms. They have only recently been documented on camera. Red sprites are massive (as big as 20 km in size), but faint luminous flashes that appear directly above an active thunderstorm and coincide with powerful lightning strikes. Blue jets too are a high altitude optical phenomenon, but are different from sprites. They were first documented in 1994. Blue jets are optical ejections from the…
