The Fateful Day and Immediate Consequences
On August 6, 1945, the United States dropped the atomic bomb "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, Japan. Three days later, on August 9, the second bomb "Fat Man" was dropped on Nagasaki.
The devastating attacks instantly killed about 78,000 people in Hiroshima and 40,000 in Nagasaki. Japan surrendered on August 15, and the official signing of the peace agreement took place on September 2, marking the end of World War II.

A JULY DROPPED BY NATURAL DISASTERS

In less than a month, a series of countries have faced extreme meteorological events:
- Russia was shaken by an 8.8-magnitude earthquake off the coast of Kamchatka.
- Japan issued a widespread tsunami warning.
- China is struggling with severe floods and rains, and before it could recover, Typhoon Co May approached the shore.
- South Korea recorded record-breaking extreme rains in many places while the US struggled to cope with heat waves, forest fires and tornadoes.
- Vietnam's heat wave has not ended, but extreme thunderstorms have hit the northern mountainous region, causing flash floods, landslides, etc.

This is an increasingly clear manifestation of a climate system that is changing rapidly, fiercely and unpredictably. Global average temperatures are rising, humidity is changing, atmospheric pressure is fluctuating, all of which have led to a chain reaction of natural disasters: heat waves are accompanied by forest fires, heavy rains lead to landslides and then drought. And the danger lies in the fact that not only poor or developing countries, but also countries with advanced meteorological science are struggling to cope. The Earth is reacting, and with each passing year, those reactions are becoming stronger and more intense.

The question now is not just "what is happening", but also: what are we preparing for? Weather forecasting, which used to be simply a matter of checking to know whether to bring an umbrella or a jacket today, has now become a life skill.

July is coming to an end, but the uncertainties it brings are still there. And the point is: August, September, and the years to come may be even more so.

Please leave your comments below, not only to discuss, but to remind each other that we don't have much time left to be indifferent to the climate.

🛑 4,750M HIGH VOLCANO IN RUSSIA EMERGES AFTER 8.8-GRADE EARTHQUAKE
After an 8.8-magnitude earthquake off the coast of Kamchatka (Russia), the Klyuchevskaya Sopka volcano, one of the world's tallest active volcanoes, began erupting.
Despite the dangerous conditions, many tourists stayed to witness the phenomenon. Authorities said that no one was killed thanks to the timely activation of the tsunami warning system.
The tsunami warning has now been lifted for the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Northern Kuril Islands. However, the geological risk in the area remains high and needs to be closely monitored.

A violent magnitude 8.7 earthquake has struck offshore near Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. This is one of the most dangerous seismic zones on Earth, known for tsunami-producing megaquakes.
Shaking may have been severe near the coast. No tsunami alert has been issued yet, but monitoring systems are fully active. Aftershocks are expected. The situation is still unfolding.

Leaders of both Cambodia and Thailand hailed their "immediate and unconditional" ceasefire, following mediation talks in Malaysia on Monday (Jul 28).

After Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced the breakthrough in Putrajaya, Cambodian PM Hun Manet said he had a "very good meeting" with acting Thai Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai in Malaysia. He said he hopes the talks will set the conditions for moving forward in their bilateral discussions to return to normalcy in the relationship.

A Celestial Spectacle Awaits on July 20

Early risers across the U.S. and Canada are in for a rare treat on the morning of July 20, as the Moon glides directly in front of the Pleiades star cluster. This event, known as a lunar occultation, will momentarily conceal the cluster’s brilliant stars in a graceful cosmic dance.

To witness the show, look toward the eastern horizon just before sunrise. As the slender crescent Moon moves slowly across the sky, stars such as Alcyone, Maia, and Electra will disappear one after another behind the lunar edge—creating the illusion of a slow, star-by-star eclipse.

The Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters, lie about 445 light-years away in the constellation Ta**us. These young, luminous stars have long captured human imagination and are among the most iconic features of the night sky.

Lunar occultations of the Pleiades occur from time to time, but visibility is always limited to certain regions. This month, North America gets the best view.

Events like these remind us of our connection to the universe—and to the myths and traditions that have surrounded the stars for millennia. The ancient Greeks believed the Pleiades were the daughters of the titan Atlas. In Japan, they are known as Subaru, meaning “to unite.” Across cultures, these stars have long served as symbols of wonder and guidance.

Mark your calendar and don’t miss this moment. It may pass quickly, but the memory is sure to linger.

The sky is about to explode with meteors..... TWO meteor showers at the same time on the night of July 29 into the early hours of July 30.

At its peak, expect up to 100 meteors per hour shooting across the night sky some even turning into fireballs!
