Nepal Flood

Nepal Flood 


On 26 August 2026, devastating flash floods struck along the Nepal-Tibet border, sweeping away homes, roads and bridges and cutting off entire communities. 
Death toll rises to 1050, 4000 still missing, and 12000 rescued on 1 September 2026.

Caused by the lower section of the glacier ⁠near the Langtang Lirung mountain peak breaking away and plunging into the valley below, triggering an avalanche of ice and rock and a massive landslide.


Future events
Experts and authorities have warned of an extremely high risk of secondary disasters in the valley, particularly from the lake formed by glacier debris, also a larger body of water at the foot of the glacier collapse.

Flood risks will remain until both lakes have fully drained. The lake is watched by radar and drones , 24-hour surveillance.

Methanol a promising alternative to fossil fuels.  In the area of- Transportation Methanol can be used in road, rail, and marine transportation. It can be more affordable and reliable than electric vehicles (EVs) in some situations, like long-haul transportation.  Methanol engines can be as efficient as diesel engines without the diesel emissions. Energy Methanol can be used in boilers, process heating modules, tractors, and commercial vehicles.  Cooking Methanol can be used as a cooking fuel in stoves and canisters that don't require pipes or regulators.    Benefits Environmental impact Methanol can reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 80% and carbon dioxide emissions by up to 95% compared to fossil fuels.  Accidental spills not harmful for environment as methonol is biodegradable,  ' Production Methanol can be produced from a variety of sources,  agricultural products,  municipal waste,  wood, and biomass.  from chemical recyc...

3I-Atlas story so far On July 1, the NASA-funded ATLAS ( Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System ) survey telescope in Rio Hurtado, Chile, first reported observations of a comet that originated from interstellar space. Arriving from the direction of the constellation Sagittarius, the interstellar comet has been officially named 3I/ATLAS. It is currently located about 420 million miles (670 million kilometers) away. This diagram shows the trajectory of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it passes through the solar system. It will make its closest approach to the Sun in October.  It is currently about 4.5 au (about 416 million miles or 670 million km) from the Sun. 3I/ATLAS will reach its closest approach to the Sun around Oct. 30, at a distance of 1.4 au (about 130 million miles or 210 million km) — just inside the orbit of Mars. 3I-Atlas Closest to Earth on 19 December 2025 danger of hitting Earth Although the trajectory of 3I/ATLAS brought it just inside the orbit of Mars, it is...
