The Daily's Verdict

This author has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on the author's reporting.

Bias

100%

Examples:

No current examples available.

Conflicts of Interest

50%

Examples:

  • NOAA is giving us a 75 percent chance for M-class flares over the next three days while two sunspots are still in Earth view
  • The second flare from 3561 was classified as medium-sized and causes brief radio blackouts that affect Earth's polar regions

Contradictions

100%

Examples:

No current examples available.

Deceptions

50%

Examples:

  • The article claims that there is a 75% chance for M-class flares over the next three days while two sunspots are still in Earth view but states in another sentence that NOAA has given them only a 15% chance. This contradicts itself and therefore it's deceptive.

Exceptional Preservation of Cambrian Trilobites in Volcanic Ash: New Insights into Ancient Marine Creatures' Anatomy and Feeding Behavior

Broke On: Thursday, 27 June 2024 Paleontologists discovered exceptionally preserved Cambrian trilobites encased in volcanic ash in Morocco, offering new insights into their anatomy and feeding behavior. The fine-grained ash created three-dimensional molds, revealing soft tissues and mouth parts. Volcanic ash deposits may hold potential for preserving delicate biological remains.

Solar Storm Causes Radio Blackouts and Auroras: NOAA Warns of Continued Disruptions from Sunspot AR3697

Broke On: Wednesday, 29 May 2024 A powerful solar storm on May 29, 2024, caused radio blackouts in the US and Europe, disrupting radar, GPS, and satellite communications. The sunspot responsible for this event is AR3697 which had previously caused a G5 geomagnetic storm on May 10th. NOAA predicts a 60% chance of radio blackouts until at least Friday, with potential solar radiation storms causing further disruptions to satellite communications and power grids. The sun currently has eight active sunspots, with two regions potentially launching higher than normal flares this week.

Two Solar Storms Set to Cause Radio Blackouts on Earth: What You Need to Know

Broke On: Wednesday, 31 January 2024 Two solar storms with a high chance of causing radio blackouts are set to hit Earth on January 23. The first one occurred on Sunday and the second is expected today. NOAA'S Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) predicts a 75% chance of M-class flares, which can cause auroras or northern lights when energy from the solar storm interacts with Earth's atmosphere.

US Life Expectancy Declines, Women Outlive Men by Six Years

Broke On: Friday, 17 November 2023 The life expectancy at birth in the U.S. dropped for the second year in a row, from 78.8 years in 2019 to 76.1 years in 2021. Women in the U.S. now live on average six years longer than men. Factors contributing to this gap include lower cardiovascular disease and lung cancer death rates in women, differences in smoking behaviors, and a higher mortality rate from COVID-19 in men. Men's likelihood to skip routine health checkups, their predominance in dangerous jobs, and higher rates of heart disease also contribute to the life expectancy gap. Improved medical care for women, such as reductions in cancer and perinatal conditions, also contribute to the life expectancy gap.
