About this app
The planet, live: every earthquake ripples where it struck, hurricanes spin with their real forecast tracks, wildfires burn, volcanoes glow, and the aurora dances over the poles — all on a beautiful 3D globe, straight from USGS, NOAA, NASA, and the Smithsonian. Tap anything for its story. A quake card shows the actual USGS ShakeMap and what its magnitude really means. A hurricane card shows the storm photographed from orbit minutes ago. Every one of 1,214 volcanoes carries its photo and geologic history. THE LIVING GLOBE • Live earthquakes, sized and colored by magnitude, rippling as they arrive • Hurricanes and tropical storms with NOAA's forecast track • Wildfires tracked from orbit by NASA • The aurora oval, forecast by NOAA and animated like the real thing • 1,214 volcanoes from the Smithsonian's catalog — recent eruptions glow • Tectonic plate boundaries: flip them on and the quakes explain themselves REPLAY THE WEEK Scrub through the past seven days and watch 400 earthquakes strike in sequence — the Ring of Fire literally draws itself. BENEATH YOU Which tectonic plate are you standing on? How far is the nearest plate boundary? Your nearest volcano? The week's quakes around you? One tap answers, computed entirely on your device. QUAKE ALERTS Optional notifications for significant earthquakes near you and major ones worldwide — no account, nothing sent anywhere. GUIDED TOURS The Ring of Fire in eight stops, and Legendary Earth — Vesuvius, Tambora, the 1960 M9.5, the dinosaur-killing impact, and more — each with real photography. TODAY ON EARTH The planet's day in one glance, on a widget too. Share any event as a poster. All data comes from public scientific agencies: USGS, NOAA, NASA, and the Smithsonian Institution. No account. No tracking. Your location never leaves your device.
