Four storms churned in the Western Pacific Ocean in Nov. 2024, the first time on record in that area in November. @NASA's EPIC instrument on the DSCOVR satellite took this image on Nov. 11, when the storms were approaching or just past the Philippines. go.nasa.gov/48M4zpP

Just passing by? New observations with Hubble support some scientists' theory that the Large Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy neighbor to our Milky Way, has just completed its closest approach. This encounter has blown away much of the "halo" of gas that surrounds the LMC.

Spot the difference 👁️ These two @NASAHubble images of spiral galaxy NGC 1672, taken 12 years apart, capture the galaxy before and after a star went supernova. This core collapse, followed by explosion, made the previously invisible star visible to us. go.nasa.gov/4ft5nm4

Take a deep dive into how our optics team keeps Webb’s mirrors in top performance shape, enabling it to continue seeing the universe in unprecedented detail. (Hint: by making small adjustments to the mirror segments as shown here.) go.nasa.gov/40D9Ttm

October 2024 was the second-hottest October in @NASAGISS' record, GISTEMP. This Oct. was 1.32°C (or about 2.38°F) above the long-term 1951-1980 average. It was slightly cooler than Oct. 2023, though the margins of error overlap, so the two are effectively tied.

The ozone hole continues to heal. Each year, it reaches an annual max extent. This year's extent was the seventh smallest since the ozone layer began recovery after the adoption of an international agreement phasing out use of ozone-depleting chemicals. go.nasa.gov/3YQQkwq
