The sound of a sonic boom can be heard and felt by an observer even when the aircraft is flying as far away as 65-80 km away from the person. Soon the Indian Air Force revealed that it was an IAF test flight involving a supersonic profile that took off from the Bengaluru airport which resulting in the sonic boom.
A similar 'boom' sound was heard in Bengaluru in May last year. The Indian Air Force later confirmed that it was made by a Sukhoi 30. A sonic boom is the result of an object moving faster than the speed of sound, which travels at 343 metres per second in the air.
A comet in the sky! It turned out that the mystery lights were the result of a comet passing above Bengaluru. According to a report in The Hindu, the comet spotted above the city is Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS), a non-periodic comet that had recently made its way closer to Earth.
The sound of a skyquake is likened to the sound of cannon fire or a sonic boom. Scientists believe skyquakes have a variety of causes, including meteors, coronal mass ejections, escaping gas, and collapsing landmasses.
Soon the Indian Air Force revealed that it was an IAF Test Flight involving a supersonic profile that took off from the Bengaluru airport, resulting in the sonic boom. About Friday's loud bang, DCP South said, "It seems like a sonic boom. There is nothing on the ground.
There is a probability that some damage—shattered glass, for example—will result from a sonic boom. Buildings in good condition should suffer no damage by pressures of 530 Pa (11 psf) or less. And, typically, community exposure to sonic boom is below 100 Pa (2 psf).
In 1984, India introduced new computer and software policies that liberalised imports and exports. That single shift opened the floodgates. Tech firms like Wipro and Infosys began hiring software engineers and exporting services. Then came the global players.
Bloop. Bloop is the name given to an ultra-low-frequency and extremely powerful underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 1997. The sound is consistent with the noises generated by icequakes in large icebergs, or large icebergs scraping the ocean floor.
A red sky appears when dust and small particles are trapped in the atmosphere by high pressure. This scatters blue light leaving only red light to give the sky its notable appearance. A red sky at sunset means high pressure is moving in from the west, so therefore the next day will usually be dry and pleasant.
What mysterious illness affects 500 residents in Bengaluru apartment?
According to The New Indian Express, Brigade Meadows Plumeria, the apartment in question, sources its water from its own borewell, which has raised concerns about potential contamination. Local doctors have diagnosed the illness as gastroenteritis, though the exact cause remains unclear.
The comet which has been spotted over the city skies is Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS). Discovered by the Purple Mountain Observatory in China on January 9, 2023, it was independently observed by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) in South Africa a month later which led to its naming.
The loudest sound in recorded history came from the volcanic eruption on the Indonesian island Krakatoa at 10.02 a.m. on August 27, 1883. The explosion caused two thirds of the island to collapse and formed tsunami waves as high as 46 m (151 ft) rocking ships as far away as South Africa.
Bangalore Kannada is a vernacular dialect of the Indian language, Kannada, which serves as the official language of the state of Karnataka, as the native language by the majority people of Karnataka classical languages of India.
On May 20, 1883, Krakatoa, a volcano on Rakata Island in Indonesia, erupted with a force never seen—or heard—on Earth. The sounds of the eruption of the Krakatoa volcano were estimated to be 310 dB SPL, and there are reports that it was heard some 1 , 300 miles away in the Bay of Bengal.
Scientists have made the first direct observations of a strange seismic event that shook the world for nine consecutive days in 2023 and confirmed its cause: two "mega-tsunamis" that sloshed around an East Greenland fjord.
What is the mysterious hum heard around the world?
The Hum is a persistent and invasive low-frequency humming, rumbling, or droning noise audible to many, but not all, people in an area. Hums have been reported in many countries, including Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Conversation. A pulsing sound from a speaker in Boeing's Starliner spacecraft heard by NASA astronaut Butch Wilmore aboard the International Space Station has stopped. The feedback from the speaker was the result of an audio configuration between the space station and Starliner.
The NOAA Vents Program has attributed the sound to that of a large cryoseism (also known as an ice quake). Numerous ice quakes share similar spectrograms with Bloop, as well as the amplitude necessary to detect them despite ranges exceeding 5,000 km (3,000 miles).
The end of NASA's ocean exploration efforts likely came from a combination of factors, including budget constraints, changing government priorities, technological challenges, and possibly, the daunting nature of unexpected discoveries.
As the city transitions from winter to summer, static electricity shocks are becoming a common complaint. Medical experts explain that the culprit is dry air. Humidity levels drop significantly this time of year, making it harder for static charges to dissipate.
Bangalore is sometimes referred to as the “Silicon Valley of India” (or “IT capital of India”) because of its role as the nation's leading information technology (IT) exporter.
