Part of northern Chile transforms from bare to snow-covered in these images captured before and after winter storms in August 2026 by the NASA-USGS Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 satellites. NASA Earth Observatory images by Lauren Dauphin.

In August 2026, back-to-back winter storms left parts of the Atacama Desert in northern Chile covered in a rare blanket of snow. The typically arid region has seen snowfall before, notably in 2025 and before that in 2011. But one of the 2026 events was unusually widespread, stretching from the Andes to near the Pacific coast.

The OLI (Operational Land Imager) on the NASA-USGS Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 satellites captured these images (above) on August 6 and August 14, before and after a period of severe weather, respectively. They show a detailed view of the Chajnantor plateau within the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex, home to the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA)—one of the planet’s most powerful radio telescopes. As snow and high winds set in, ALMA suspended operations, moving its antennas into a protective survival mode.

A wide view of northern Chile, Argentina, and southern Bolivia and Peru shows snow cover after a storm, stretching from the Andes into the core of the Atacama Desert. In one spot, a patch of snow reaches nearly to Chile's Pacific coast.

Another storm in the second half of the month blanketed an even wider area with fresh snowfall. This image, captured by the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) on NASA’s Terra satellite on August 19, shows snow extending westward from the Andes, across the desert’s hyper-arid core, and close to the Pacific coast south of the Chilean port city of Antofagasta. This coastal area is home to several other major astronomical observatories, some of which also suspended operations during the event.

Most of the region’s winter precipitation comes from cutoff lows—low-pressure systems that become cut off from the jet stream and can occasionally reach northern Chile. That’s what happened in 2025, said René Garreaud, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Chile. The late-August 2026 storm also came from a cutoff low, but this one spun off from an unusually large trough—an elongated area of relatively low atmospheric pressure—that spanned an enormous stretch of the hemisphere, from the tip of South America up into the subtropics.

The atmospheric disruption, combined with ample coastal moisture, produced precipitation that spanned an unusually wide swath of the region—offshore, along the coast, across the core of the Atacama, and over the Andes. Totals reached a magnitude “rarely seen in the otherwise extremely arid region,” Garreaud said.

In some areas it fell as rain, not snow. Taltal, for instance, on Chile’s northern coast, accumulated nearly 40 millimeters (1.6 inches) of rain in three days—about 10 times its annual mean, Garreaud said. “We see these kinds of events only a few times, if any, per decade.”

The abundant precipitation spurred destructive mudflows and flash flooding in parts of northern Chile. The National Disaster Prevention and Response Service (SENAPRED) reported thousands were affected and hundreds of homes had major damage. 

Garreaud noted that the strengthening El Niño is the backdrop for the anomalously wet winter in north-central Chile. In addition to the August storms, a major event in July brought significant impacts to the country’s Norte Chico region. During El Niño, the subtropical Pacific high—which normally keeps the region dry—weakens, while a blocking high tends to form in the South Pacific near the tip of the continent. Together, these shifts push the Southern Hemisphere storm track equatorward.

The Forested Floodplains of Congaree National Park

Among the 63 U.S. national parks, few are as defined by a single river’s floodplain as Congaree National Park in South Carolina. While the features are also prominent in other parks, a full 80 percent of Congaree National Park lies within the Congaree River floodplain.

It’s a place home to one of the largest intact tracts of old-growth bottomland hardwood forests in the United States. In this image captured by the OLI (Operational Land Imager) on Landsat 9, the river winds through the forested plain, along with curving bands of green that trace old channels, ridges, and swales left behind as the river gradually migrated across it. Slight differences in elevation in these paleochannels and other landforms affect how frequently they flood, producing distinct ecosystems that appear in contrasting shades of green.

The river flows through flat, soft terrain, which encourages the formation of bends and meanders. Water typically flows faster on the outside of bends, leading to more rapid erosion as the channel carves into the outer riverbank. It moves more slowly on the inside of bends, resulting in the deposition of sediment and the growth of sandy features called point bars. Over time, this process can cut off a bend from the main river channel, forming U-shaped oxbow lakes.

The National Park Service lists Weston Lake, 1.2 miles (1.9 kilometers) from the visitor center, as one of the park’s most permanent oxbow lakes, noting that it is relatively deep and lacks the shallow clay and silt layer found in most of the park’s other oxbow lakes, such as Devil’s Elbow. On the right side of the image is Bates Old River, a roughly 4-mile-long abandoned channel of the Congaree River and one of the longest oxbow lakes in South Carolina. Over time, abandoned channels and oxbow lakes can fill with sediment and become shallow wetlands. Some of these low-lying, water-filled features are known as sloughs, where flood-tolerant cypress-tupelo forests tend to grow.

While loggers targeted forests along the Congaree in the 1880s, challenges such as frequent flooding, interminably muddy roads, and mosquito-plagued conditions meant that most of the floodplain forests escaped the widespread logging that transformed other parts of the Southeast. By the 1950s, conservationists had begun to recognize how rare old-growth forests of this type had become in the region. Congress designated the area a national monument in 1976, and it became a national park in 2003.

As the river snakes its way through the park’s mostly flat terrain, it overflows its banks several times per year, usually in the winter and early spring but also in the summer and fall after hurricanes and major rainstorms. These floods distribute broad layers of nutrient-rich silt throughout the floodplain, nourishing the forests and contributing to the high concentration of unusually large trees in the park.

Over the decades, Congaree National Park has harbored a remarkable array of giant “champion” trees that have held national and state size records for their species. Though individual trees have gained and lost champion status as they have been damaged, have died, or been surpassed by newly measured trees elsewhere, Congaree trees such as the possumhaw (Ilex decidua), water hickory (Carya aquatica), loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), swamp tupelo (Nyssa biflora), and sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua) have held records at times.

To strengthen the nation’s space workforce and develop the next generation of space leaders, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order on Friday to establish the nation’s first U.S. Space Academy.

The order highlights how space is a critical domain for American national security, economic growth, scientific discovery, and technological innovation. The proposed academy would focus technical education with leadership development, discipline, and a commitment to public service, helping ultimately advance U.S. interests in space.

“Given the rapid growth of the U.S. Space Force and commercial space industry, and the expansion of our ambitions to the Moon and far beyond the Moon, it’s clear we will need to educate and train an entire generation of skilled service members, engineers, and civil operators,” said President Trump. “That’s why I will sign an Executive Order to begin the process of creating a new a national academy called the U.S. Space Academy.”

The order also calls on NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman to serve as the chair of a new Presidential Commission on the United States Space Academy, and NASA Deputy Administrator Matt Anderson to serve as the executive director. They will work with vice chairs — Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, Michael Kratsios, and Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, Kevin Hassett — and other representatives from the White House and the interagency on the commission.

“President Trump’s vision for a new academy is a transformational step to educate the engineers, scientists, technicians, operators and even the astronauts who will be necessary for the inspiring future we are pursuing in space. In the years ahead, we will return NASA astronauts to the lunar surface, build the Moon Base, get underway on nuclear power, ignite the orbital economy and launch more missions of science and discovery,” said Isaacman. “I have no doubt that so much of the future talent that will graduate and contribute to these exciting endeavors will be educated at the United States Space Academy.”

A report from the commission to the President is due within 120 days of the signing with recommendations on governance framework, service obligations for graduates, physical location of the academy, legislative requirements, and more.

The signing of “Establishing the United States Space Academy Executive Order,” took place at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston where the President also presented the Artemis II crew members with the Congressional Space Medal of Honor.

The Executive Order is the latest from President Trump that demonstrates his commitment to maintaining U.S. leadership in space and advancing NASA’s Golden Age exploration and innovation. In December 2025, he signed the Ensuring American Space Superiority, and recently, a new National Space Transportation Policy memorandum on Aug. 20.

President Honors NASA’s Artemis II Crew with Highest US Space Award

President Donald J. Trump awarded NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen with the Congressional Space Medal of Honor on Aug. 28, 2026, at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

President Donald J. Trump awarded NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen with the Congressional Space Medal of Honor Friday for their service during the Artemis II mission. He presented the awards during a ceremony at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, honoring the first medal recipients since 2023.

NASA’s historic Artemis II mission launched on April 1, and splashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean on April 10. The crew members were the first astronauts to launch on the agency’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket, flying aboard NASA’s Orion spacecraft, which the crew named Integrity. During their record-setting mission, the astronauts traveled 252,756 miles from Earth, farther than any humans have traveled before, surpassing a previous record set by Apollo 13 astronauts in 1970. In total, they flew 695,081 miles, including a lunar flyby.

“We gather on these historic grounds to celebrate the immense courage of four intrepid space heroes whose sense of daring and adventure led them further from Earth than anyone has ever traveled ever before,” said President Trump. “Today we’re proudly awarding the Congressional Space Medal of Honor to the remarkable crew of Artemis II. These astronauts did not do it alone. I want to salute all of the engineers, and scientists, launch and landing specialists, everyone at NASA who helped make this mission a great success.”

The Congressional Space Medal of Honor was authorized by Congress in 1969 to recognize an astronaut who in the performance of duties has distinguished himself or herself by exceptionally brave and meritorious efforts, and contributions to the welfare of the nation and humanity. There now are 34 recipients of the award since the beginning of the space program, including the crews of Apollo 1, Challenger, and Columbia who received the award posthumously.

“President Trump’s leadership has put America back on a path to lead the world in space, from creating the Artemis program to giving NASA the resources and mandate to win this new space race,” said NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman. “The Artemis II crew answered that call with extraordinary skill and courage, showing the world the Moon again and what American leadership and exploration look like at their best. Their achievement was made possible by the exceptional NASA workforce, alongside our industry and international partners, who showed once again what can be accomplished when we commit to big, bold endeavors. We will build on this success as we return to the lunar surface and establish an enduring presence on the Moon.”

The first crewed mission under NASA’s Artemis program paved the way for the 2027 Artemis III test flight in low Earth orbit to demonstrate rendezvous and docking capabilities between Orion and commercial human landing systems, and the Artemis IV mission in 2028, which will return American astronauts to the lunar surface.

“It was the honor of my lifetime to fly on Integrity around the Moon with Victor, Christina, and Jeremy. Having President Trump here at the agency’s Johnson Space Center to honor NASA and my crew underscores the significance of what our teams accomplished,” said Wiseman, who served as commander of the mission. “I can’t wait to see my friends continue this legacy on Artemis III.”

Glover served as pilot of the Orion spacecraft.

“Piloting Orion for the first time in space was a profound honor, made possible because of the years of hard work, dedication, and expertise by countless individuals dedicating their time and talents to the mission,” said Glover. “We share this recognition with the thousands of people who launched us around the Moon and brought us safely back to Earth.”

Koch served as a mission specialist.

“The response to our mission here on Earth was beyond anything we ever imagined and all we ever hoped for. We are grateful every time we hear from people who followed along with our journey. As team members on this shared mission, we accept this award to honor those who made it happen, from factory floors to clean rooms and mission control rooms,” said Koch.

Hansen also served as a mission specialist.

“It is a privilege to receive the Congressional Space Medal of Honor alongside my Artemis II crewmates,” said Hansen. “I share this recognition with the dedicated teams in Canada, the United States, and our international partners who made the mission possible. Artemis II showed what we can accomplish for humanity when we set ambitious goals and work together. For Canada, the mission and the Artemis program as a whole are about much more than just going back to the Moon. It is about the pursuit of excellence and collaboration.”

As part of a Golden Age of innovation and exploration, NASA will send Artemis astronauts on a series of challenging missions to explore more of the Moon and establish a Moon Base on the lunar surface for long-term exploration. These missions will set the stage for sending the first astronauts — Americans — to Mars. Learn more:

How to Withdraw Money from Casino Games?

Yaar Wins

Online casino gaming has become increasingly popular, offering players access to hundreds of exciting games from their computers and mobile devices. Whether you enjoy slot games, blackjack, roulette, poker, or live dealer experiences, understanding how withdrawals work is one of the most important parts of playing responsibly. Many new players ask, “How do I withdraw money from casino games?” The answer depends on the gaming platform, its withdrawal policies, your chosen payment method, and whether you have met all account requirements.

If you’re exploring online gaming platforms like Yaar Wins, it’s important to understand the general withdrawal process, verify the platform’s terms and conditions, and make sure your account information is accurate before requesting a payout. The Yaar Wins Game experience may include various gaming options, but players should always review the platform’s official rules regarding deposits, withdrawals, account verification, and payment processing.

This guide explains how casino game withdrawals typically work, the steps involved, common payment methods, potential delays, and best practices to help ensure a smooth withdrawal experience.

Understanding Casino Game Withdrawals

A casino withdrawal is the process of transferring eligible winnings from your gaming account to your selected payment method. While the exact process varies by platform, most online casinos follow a similar procedure to protect players and comply with financial regulations.

Before requesting a withdrawal, players should ensure they have:

  • A verified account
  • Met any applicable wagering or promotional requirements
  • A supported payment method
  • Accurate personal information
  • Sufficient withdrawable balance

Players using platforms such as Yaar Wins should always review the withdrawal policy available within their account or on the platform’s help pages before submitting a request.

Step 1: Verify Your Account

Most online gaming platforms require identity verification before processing withdrawals. This helps prevent fraud and ensures payments are sent to the correct account.

Verification may include providing:

  • Government-issued photo identification
  • Proof of address
  • Date of birth confirmation
  • Verification of your payment method, if requested

Completing verification early can help reduce delays when you’re ready to withdraw.

Whether you’re using Yaar Wins or another online gaming platform, keeping your account information accurate is an important first step.

Step 2: Check Your Available Balance

Not every balance displayed in your account may be immediately withdrawable. Depending on the platform, your account may include:

  • Cash balance
  • Bonus balance
  • Promotional credits
  • Pending winnings

Some bonuses require players to satisfy wagering requirements before associated winnings become eligible for withdrawal. Always read the bonus terms carefully.

The Yaar Wins Game interface, like many gaming platforms, may distinguish between different balance types, so it’s helpful to understand what each one represents.

Step 3: Open the Withdrawal Section

Most online casinos provide a dedicated cashier or wallet section where you can manage deposits and withdrawals.

Typically, you’ll:

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Open the Wallet or Cashier section.
  3. Select Withdraw.
  4. Choose your preferred payment method.
  5. Enter the withdrawal amount.
  6. Confirm your request.

Always review the entered information before submitting the request.

Step 4: Choose a Withdrawal Method

Different gaming platforms support different withdrawal methods. Availability often depends on your country, local regulations, and the payment methods you used for deposits.

Common withdrawal options include:

  • Bank transfer
  • Debit cards (where supported)
  • E-wallets
  • Online payment services
  • Other locally available payment options

Some platforms require withdrawals to be made using the same payment method that was used for deposits, where applicable.

If you’re using Yaar Wins, check the platform’s official payment options to see which methods are available for your account.

Step 5: Enter the Withdrawal Amount

After selecting your payment method, you’ll enter the amount you want to withdraw.

Keep in mind that some platforms may have:

  • Minimum withdrawal limits
  • Maximum withdrawal limits
  • Daily withdrawal limits
  • Weekly or monthly payout limits

Review these limits before submitting your request to avoid unnecessary delays.

Step 6: Submit the Request

Once all information is complete, confirm your withdrawal request.

Most platforms will display:

  • A confirmation message
  • A transaction reference number
  • Processing status
  • Estimated review time

Keep this information until your payment has been completed.

How Long Do Casino Withdrawals Take?

Withdrawal times vary depending on the platform, payment provider, verification status, and internal review process.

Typical processing stages include:

  • Internal review
  • Identity verification (if required)
  • Payment approval
  • Transfer to your selected payment method

Some payment methods may process faster than others, but processing times differ between platforms.

If you’re playing on Yaar Wins, refer to the platform’s official support resources for current processing estimates.

Reasons a Withdrawal May Be Delayed

Delays do not always indicate a problem. Common reasons include:

  • Pending identity verification
  • Incomplete account information
  • Security checks
  • High withdrawal volume
  • Public holidays
  • Payment provider processing times
  • Outstanding bonus requirements

What Is The Best Online Casino In Usa

The question “what is the best online casino in USA” does not have a single fixed answer because online gambling in the United States is regulated at the state level.

What Is The Best Live Bitcoin Casino ?

The online gambling industry has evolved dramatically over the past decade, and one of the most exciting developments has been the rise of Bitcoin casinos especially those offering live dealer experiences. These platforms combine the transparency and speed of cryptocurrency with the immersive atmosphere of real-time casino gaming, creating a unique and highly engaging experience for players worldwide.

If you’re searching for the best live Bitcoin casino, you’re likely looking for more than just flashy games. You want fast payouts, fair gameplay, strong security, and a seamless user experience. In this guide, we’ll explore what makes a top-tier live Bitcoin casino, why crypto gambling is gaining popularity, and how to choose the right platform especially if instant payouts are a priority.

What Is a Live Bitcoin Casino?

A live Bitcoin casino is an online gambling platform that allows players to use Bitcoin (and often other cryptocurrencies) to place bets on real-time games hosted by professional dealers. These games are streamed via high-quality video, giving players the feel of a land-based casino from the comfort of their own home.

Popular live casino games include:

  • Blackjack
  • Roulette
  • Baccarat
  • Poker variants
  • Game shows (like Monopoly Live or Crazy Time)

What sets these casinos apart is the use of blockchain-based currency, which introduces faster transactions, enhanced privacy, and often lower fees compared to traditional online casinos.

Why Bitcoin Casinos Are So Popular

1. Instant Transactions

One of the biggest advantages of Bitcoin casinos is the speed of deposits and withdrawals. Unlike traditional banking systems that can take days to process payments, crypto transactions are often completed within minutes. This is why many players actively search for an instant withdrawal online casino—they want access to their winnings without delays.

2. Enhanced Privacy

Bitcoin transactions don’t require sensitive personal information like bank account details. While reputable casinos still require some verification for security purposes, the overall level of privacy is significantly higher.

3. Lower Fees

Without intermediaries like banks or payment processors, transaction fees are usually much lower. This means more of your money stays in your account.

4. Provably Fair Gaming

Many Bitcoin casinos use provably fair algorithms, allowing players to verify the fairness of each game outcome. This transparency builds trust and sets crypto casinos apart from traditional platforms.

Key Features of the Best Live Bitcoin Casinos

Not all Bitcoin casinos are created equal. The best platforms share several important features that enhance the overall gaming experience.

1. High-Quality Live Dealer Games

Top casinos partner with leading software providers to deliver crystal-clear video streams, professional dealers, and interactive features like live chat. The goal is to replicate the excitement of a real casino floor.

2. Fast Withdrawals

Speed is everything when it comes to payouts. The best platforms process withdrawals almost instantly, especially when using Bitcoin. If a casino advertises itself as an instant withdrawal online casino, it should back that claim with consistently fast processing times.

3. Strong Security Measures

Security is crucial in crypto gambling. Look for platforms that use SSL encryption, cold storage wallets, and two-factor authentication to protect your funds and personal data.

4. Generous Bonuses and Promotions

Many Bitcoin casinos offer attractive bonuses, including:

  • Welcome bonuses
  • Deposit matches
  • Free spins
  • Cashback offers

These promotions can significantly boost your bankroll, especially if you’re new to the platform.

5. User-Friendly Interface

A clean, intuitive interface makes navigation easy and enhances your overall experience. The best casinos are optimized for both desktop and mobile devices.

Top Live Bitcoin Casino Games to Try

Live Blackjack

A favorite among players, live blackjack combines strategy and luck. With a real dealer and real cards, the experience feels authentic and engaging.

Live Roulette

Whether you prefer European, American, or French roulette, live versions offer real-time spins and interactive features that make the game more exciting.

Live Baccarat

Known for its simplicity, baccarat is a popular choice for both beginners and high rollers. Live versions add a social element that enhances the experience.

Live Game Shows

These are newer additions to live casinos and include games like spinning wheels, bonus rounds, and interactive elements. They’re perfect for players looking for something different.

How to Choose the Right Live Bitcoin Casino

With so many options available, choosing the right platform can be overwhelming. Here are some tips to help you make the best decision:

1. Check Licensing and Reputation

Always choose a casino that is licensed and regulated by a reputable authority. Read reviews and player feedback to gauge the platform’s reliability.

2. Evaluate Payment Options

While Bitcoin is the primary currency, many casinos also support other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, Litecoin, and USDT. Make sure the platform offers the options you prefer.

3. Test Customer Support

Reliable customer support is essential. Look for casinos that offer 24/7 support via live chat or email.

4. Review Withdrawal Policies

Even if a casino claims to be an instant withdrawal online casino, it’s important to read the fine print. Check for withdrawal limits, fees, and processing times.

Advantages of Live Dealer Games in Bitcoin Casinos

Live dealer games offer several benefits that make them more appealing than standard online games:

  • Real-time interaction: Chat with dealers and other players
  • Authenticity: Real cards, wheels, and tables
  • Transparency: Reduced risk of manipulation
  • Immersion: High-quality streaming creates a realistic environment

When combined with Bitcoin’s fast transactions, these features create a powerful gaming experience.

Potential Drawbacks to Consider

While Bitcoin casinos offer many advantages, there are a few drawbacks to keep in mind:

1. Volatility of Bitcoin

The value of Bitcoin can fluctuate significantly. This means your winnings could increase or decrease in value over time.

2. Limited Regulation

Some Bitcoin casinos operate in loosely regulated jurisdictions. This makes it even more important to choose reputable platforms.

3. Learning Curve

If you’re new to cryptocurrency, there may be a learning curve when it comes to wallets, transactions, and security practices.

Tips for Maximizing Your Experience

1. Set a Budget

Always gamble responsibly. Set a budget and stick to it to avoid unnecessary losses.

2. Take Advantage of Bonuses

Bonuses can give you extra playing power, but be sure to read the terms and conditions.

3. Choose Games Wisely

Some games have better odds than others. Blackjack and baccarat, for example, typically offer lower house edges.

4. Use Secure Wallets

Store your Bitcoin in a secure wallet and enable all available security features.

The Future of Live Bitcoin Casinos

The future looks bright for live Bitcoin casinos. As technology continues to evolve, we can expect:

  • Improved streaming quality (including VR experiences)
  • Faster transaction speeds
  • Greater adoption of cryptocurrencies
  • Enhanced game variety

These advancements will further solidify Bitcoin casinos as a major force in the online gambling industry.

Final Thoughts

Finding the best live Bitcoin casino comes down to understanding what matters most to you as a player. Whether it’s fast payouts, high-quality live games, or strong security, there are plenty of excellent platforms to choose from.

If instant access to your winnings is a top priority, focus on platforms that truly deliver on the promise of being an instant withdrawal online casino. Combine that with a rich selection of live dealer games and a trustworthy reputation, and you’ll have an unbeatable gaming experience.

As always, remember to gamble responsibly and choose platforms that prioritize fairness, transparency, and player satisfaction. With the right approach, live Bitcoin casinos can offer an exciting, secure, and rewarding way to enjoy online gaming.
