The apparent micrometeorite punctured a hole the spacecrafts radiator, causing all of its coolant to leak out into space. A major concern is that, with the cooling system not working properly, the temperatures and humidity inside the crew capsule would reach unsafe levels during atmospheric reentry.

this summer, residents and tourists were instructed to stay the hell away. An all-women team of scientists from the United Kingdom, however, was asked to do the exact opposite. In July, five volcanologists from the Universities of Cambridge and Leeds arrived in Hawaii to sample Kilauea volcanos toxic emissions at the request of the U.S. Geological Survey USGS . At times wearing gear that would have fit in on the set of a post-apocalyptic movie, the so-called plume team spent three weeks trekking ac

But while the USGS was routinely monitoring everything from seismic activity to carbon and sulfur dioxide SO2 emissions, they were missing an important piece of the puzzle: Aerosols. Aerosols are tiny particles of sulfur, chlorine, and metals ejected alongside the gases in a volcanos plume. Theyre a key component of volcanic smog or vog, which can be harmful
