Hurricane Dorian could hit Florida early next week as a Category 4 storm with winds of 140 mph. Hurricane Dorian is building strength on its way to the Bahamas and Florida this weekend. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) expects the storm to hit Florida early next week as at least a Category 3 hurricane. Sustained wind speeds could even reach 140 mph, which would make Dorian a Category 4. Read More: Hurricane Dorian is moving toward Florida.
☆ What happens to your body in Mount Everest's 'death zone'
  + stars: | 2019-05-28 | by ( Aylin Woodward | Ashley Collman | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
Climbers who ascend higher than 26,000 feet on Mount Everest enter the "death zone." In the death zone, climbers' brains and lungs are starved for oxygen, their risk of heart attack and stroke is increased, and their judgment quickly becomes impaired. In 2019, at least 11 people died on Everest, almost all of whom spent time in the death zone. These extra, unplanned hours in the death zone might have put the 11 people who perished at higher risk, though it's hard to determine the specific causes of each death. Temperatures in the death zone never rise above zero degrees Fahrenheit.
☆ Mars Insight Mission Ended by NASA After Lander Falls Silent

A NASA illustration of the InSight lander after it deployed its instruments on the Martian surface. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said Wednesday that its InSight Mars mission had ended after recent attempts by mission controllers to contact the lander had failed. The agency said the lander had fallen silent, likely because its batteries had run out of energy as a result of the accumulation of dust on its solar panels. The robotic lander arrived on the Martian surface on Nov. 26, 2018, after a more than a six-month journey through space. Since then, InSight—short for Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport—had been studying the planet’s interior, weather and seismic activity.
