Animals reacted weirdly to the eclipse and NASA wants your help studying them
Tuesday, 9 April 2024 While people across North America may have reacted in a range of surprising ways as they witnessed a total solar eclipse on Monday, humans were not the only species displaying unusual behaviour during the rare celestial event.

NASA Reestablishes , Connection With Distant , Voyager 1 Space Probe.
The news comes after engineers at
the agency worked for months
attempting to fix the 46-year-old probe.
In December, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)
said that the probe, now a staggering 15 billion miles
away from Earth, was transmitting gibberish code. .
On April 23, the JPL announced that
the team was once again receiving
usable data from the spacecraft.
Currently, the probe is only
transmitting data regarding the status
of the ship's engineering systems.
The next step is to enable
the spacecraft to begin
returning science data again, JPL statement, via 'The Guardian'.
'The Guardian' reports that Voyager 1 has been in
operation for nearly half a century after launching
in 1977 with the goal of studying Jupiter and Saturn.
In August of 2012, Voyager crossed into
interstellar space, becoming the first
human-made object to leave the solar system.
The probe is currently traveling at a staggering
36,800 miles per hour through space.
NASA plans to collect data from the two
Voyager spacecraft for a few more years,
but the space agency expects to lose
contact with the probes within the next decade

NASA has unveiled striking images capturing the extensive flooding in the UAE following the recent torrential rainfall. Describing it as a "slow-moving storm," NASA highlighted the unprecedented deluge that inundated the Gulf states, surpassing a year's worth of rainfall in some regions. According to the UAE's meteorological department, the country received a staggering 6.04 billion cubic metres of rain last week, nearly equivalent to its annual precipitation of 6.7 billion cubic metres. This remarkable event underscores the magnitude of the weather phenomenon that swept across the region.

The case is the first cetacean ever recorded
in North America with highly pathogenic
avian influenza virus (HPAIV).
The study warns that a highly contagious
bird flu "could be catastrophic"
for cetacean species.
In March of 2022, a dolphin was found
"in distress" in a Dixie County canal and died
shortly after the arrival of a rescue team. .
A postmortem revealed that the dolphin suffered
from a number of health problems, including
leptomeninges disease and brain inflammation.
We still don't know where
the dolphin got the virus and
more research needs to be done, Richard Webby, Director of the World Health
Organization Collaborating Center for Studies
on the Ecology of Influenza in Animals and Birds at
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, via 'Newsweek'.
After first being detected in North America
in 2021, the virus has been spreading
among birds and other mammals.

According to researchers, harbor seals and grey seals
in the area had died from the same virus. A small
amount were also found to have neurological symptoms.
So far, seals and sea lions have
been the primary mammal species
to be impacted by the disease. .
'Newsweek' reports that the recent study highlights the
importance of learning more about the virus in order to
potentially prevent it from spreading to further species.
