The world's first artificial satellite, the Soviet Union's Sputnik 1, was launched in October 1957. Just three months later, ...

Since then, our ozone layer has been on a healing process, and scientists estimate it could fully recover by 2066. Do you have a tip on a science story that Newsweek should be covering?

the ozone layer is expected to recover to 1980 values (before the appearance of the ozone hole) by around 2066 over the Antarctic, by 2045 over the Arctic and by 2040 for the rest of the world ...

It projected the ozone layer should be restored to 1980 levels over the Antarctic by around 2066. Smaller holes over the Arctic were projected to recover by 2045, and for the rest of the world in ...

NASA and NOAA have set a recovery date: 2066. The ozone layer’s comeback is taking its sweet time, yet international efforts are finally paying off. Its a slow crawl back to safety, but the ...

A new research underscores how future increases in methane emissions could significantly influence ozone recovery, particularly in the polar regions.

Atmospheric physicists Paul Newman and Luke Oman built a simulation of the Earth’s atmosphere and then proceeded to strip away our protective ozone layer. Their computer model reproduced the chemistry ...
