Las inundaciones de agua dulce han causado más de la mitad de todas las muertes directas por huracanes desde 2013. La amenaza aumentará a medida que el cambio climático haga que los huracanes sean más húmedos y potencialmente más lentos. The post El cambio climático está intensificando las lluvias de los huracanes, contribuyendo a inundaciones mortales appeared first on Yale Climate Connections.

Description This colorized image of Mars was captured by NASA’s Psyche mission on May 3, 2026, about 3 million miles (4.8 million kilometers) from the planet. The spacecraft is approaching the planet for a gravity assist on May 15 that will give it a boost in speed and adjust its trajectory toward asteroid Psyche for The post NASA’s Psyche Mission Captures Mars During Gravity Assist Approach appeared first on NASA Science.
