One planet. Two public feeds.Earthquakes from the past day. Selected open natural events from the last 30 days.
Coverage, methodology & AI disclosure
Real observations. Defined limits.
This independent project covers natural hazards only. It does not cover all global emergencies, wars, crime or general breaking news, and is not affiliated with the US military, NASA or USGS. Follow local authorities for safety instructions.
The interface and code are AI-assisted. Event titles and measurements come directly from the named feeds; no AI-generated news, summaries or severity judgments are presented.
Sources & freshness
USGS earthquake feed documentation: all magnitudes, rolling past day. The USGS feed normally updates every minute; this app polls every 5 minutes.
NASA EONET v3 documentation: open events returned with days=30. Curation is not immediate or exhaustive. Latest available Point geometry is displayed; other geometry is omitted and counted. An open catalog record does not confirm current activity.
UTC times refer to source event/geometry observations, not publication time. EONET midnight dates may lack time-of-day precision. Fetch timestamps are separate. Failed refreshes retain this session's prior data, explicitly marked stale. No stored fallback feed is used.
