NASA Captures Stunning Images of Gravity Waves From Hurricane Helene’s Fury
When Hurricane Helene hit the southeastern United States last month, it caused widespread power outages and devastating flooding on the ground. But as revealed in new NOAA data, the superstorm also generated shockwaves in Earth’s atmosphere.
Hurricane Helene Unleashed Powerful Gravity Waves, NASA Video Reveals
"Like rings of water spreading from a drop in a pond, circular waves from Helene are seen billowing westward from Florida," expert Ludger Scherliess said.
Hurricane Helene’s landfall produced atmospheric waves seen 55 miles above Earth
When Hurricane Helene slammed into Florida with 140-mph winds, the impacts on the ground were deadly, and that power reverberated up into Earth’s atmosphere, creating ripples seen by a NASA instrument more than 55 miles above.
Hurricane Helene's gravity waves revealed by NASA's AWE
On Sept. 26, 2024, Hurricane Helene slammed into the Gulf Coast of Florida, inducing storm surges and widespread impacts on communities in its path. At the same time, NASA's Atmospheric Waves Experiment (AWE),

On September 26, 2024, NASA observed atmospheric gravity waves generated by Hurricane Helene over Florida. This data, captured by the AWE instrument aboard the ISS, helps explain the terrestrial impact on space weather,
NASA: Hurricane Helene produced 'enormous' gravity waves in upper atmosphere
A new technology developed by NASA to predict space weather showed that Hurricane Helene produced "enormous" waves in the Earth's upper atmosphere as it came ashore on Sept. 26, the agency says.
NASA’s Atmospheric Waves Experiment Captures Gravity Waves From Hurricane Helene in Florida
NASA’s AWE captured gravity waves above Florida, triggered by Hurricane Helene, aiding space weather research.
