Timeline

  1. El Niño strengthens, odds jump to 35%

    By early August, Hausfather raises his estimate to 35% that 2026 will be the hottest year, and Hansen predicts it will edge out 2024. All eyes turn to the developing El Niño's peak.

  2. Daily sea surface temperatures become record hot

    From June onward, nearly every day sets a new record for global ocean heat, amplifying the warming potential for air temperatures.

  3. Sea surface temperatures tie 2024 record

    Global daily sea surface temperatures reach the same record-high levels seen in 2024, indicating massive ocean heat.

  4. Solar Orbit Shift Confirmed

    Long-term tracking confirms the entire system's heliocentric path has been altered.

  5. Hausfather estimates 7% chance of record 2026

    At the start of spring, odds for 2026 surpassing 2024 are low, but the emerging El Niño starts to shift projections.

  6. 2025 becomes second-hottest year on record

    2025 follows record-setter 2024, continuing the warming trend and setting the stage for El Niño influence in 2026.

  7. Orbit Change Confirmed

    NASA confirms the moonlet's orbital period was shortened by 32-33 minutes.

  8. Kinetic Impact

    DART successfully strikes Dimorphos, marking the first planetary defense test.

  9. DART Launch

    SpaceX Falcon 9 launches the DART mission from Vandenberg Space Force Base.

35% chance 2026 breaks all-time heat record as El Niño strengthens, scientists warn

As a supercharged El Niño intensifies, climate scientists now give a 35% probability that 2026 will surpass 2024 as the hottest year ever, with 2027 nearly certain to set an even higher record. The trend underscores accelerating global warming and its cascading impacts on energy systems, policy urgency, and economic resilience.

NASA’s DART Impact Altered Entire Asteroid System’s Solar Orbit

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) has achieved a milestone beyond its original scope, confirming that the 2022 impact successfully shifted the solar orbit of the entire Didymos-Dimorphos binary system. This breakthrough validates kinetic impact technology as a definitive tool for long-term planetary sustainability and defense.
