Is New York City’s Manhattan Island sinking with its skyscrapers bringing it down, according to the findings of a new scientific study?

The model indicates the geology beneath the island was compared to satellite data showing its footprint is collapsing into Earth.

NOAA calls it subsidence, with a gradual settling or sudden sinking of Earth's surface that occurs when soft sediments shift or loads bearing down on the ground push it deeper. There are multiple causes, but the weight of cities is rarely studied.

The NASA Space Agency declares that Uranus has never looked this good since they began tracking it years ago.

The image of Uranus shows the planet’s unique axis. Unlike Earth, which spins on an axis of 23.4 degrees, Uranus rotates at an angle of almost 90 degrees, NASA says. This extreme tilt makes Uranus the only planet to rotate almost completely on its side. As a result, the planet’s poles are located on its sides, giving it the appearance of a ball rolling around the sun.

Why have 23 Whales washed up along the shore dead along the East coast of the United States sinc4 December 2023? 

Usually, they only stay under for about 20 minutes, but different whales do different things. Whales can only survive a few hours on land. They breathe the air just fine. The problem is that their fat holds in too much heat.

Unusual winds, tidal patterns, and ocean currents can increase the chances that whales will become stranded on a beach, and such changes could be exacerbated by climate change. February 21, 2023
