Scientists have revealed that a crucial system of Atlantic Ocean currents could collapse by the 2030s, dramatically altering Europe's weather.

SpaceX’s Starship explodes over the Atlantic Ocean Super Heavy booster lands safely during test flight Starship’s upper stage explosion witnessed near Turks and Caicos

The 171-foot-tall (52 meters) spacecraft exploded over the Atlantic Ocean near the Turks and Caicos islands around 8.5 minutes after launch, creating a spectacular sky show witnessed by many people in the area. And a fair few of these folks posted their photos and videos on X, the social media site owned by SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk.

Earth, being 71% covered in water, is influenced by the ocean and its movements. In the Atlantic Ocean, a system of connected currents, called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), moves water throughout the world's oceans powered by a combination of winds and ocean density.

SpaceX conducted the seventh flight test of its Starship launch vehicle on Thursday. The company called it “the most capable” Starship yet—and the only fully reusable one, according to ABC.

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, is vital in regulating the temperature of the earth. Scientists measure it using scientific instruments deployed in different latitudes across the north and south Atlantic Ocean.

A proposal to lower speed limits on waterways — boat strikes kill a large number of the whales — was dropped in face of next administration.

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has not slowed down since the mid-20th century based on the North Atlantic air-sea heat fluxes over that time. This finding contrasts with studies that have estimated a decline in the AMOC,

Brazilian Olympian Bruno Lobo rescued a drowning woman and gave all the credit to God for putting him in position to perform the heroic deed.

However, Trump’s math was off by some margin. According to National Geographic, the Atlantic Ocean covers just over 41 million square miles – which is the equivalent of around 26.3 billion acres. Those 625 million acres represent only around two percent of 26.3 billion acres – not quite the “whole ocean” as Trump claimed.
