I’m a science journalist and researcher at The Watchers, contributing to the Epicenter edition, where I cover peer-reviewed scientific research and emerging discoveries across Earth and space sciences. With a background in astronomy and a passion for environmental science, I’ve worked in shark and coral conservation in Fiji, conducting reef and shark-behavior research, contributing to mangrove restoration, and earning PADI Open Water and Coral Reef Certifications. I bring a blend of scientific rigor and storytelling to illuminate the discoveries shaping our planet and beyond.

Scientists have directly observed small-scale torsional Alfvén waves in the Sun’s corona for the first time using the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Hawaii, as reported in Nature Astronomy on October 24, 2025.
A study in Geophysical Journal International introduces a Radiation Boundary inversion algorithm that accelerates three-dimensional magnetotelluric modelling, producing sharper, faster images of Earth’s crust and mantle across continental scales.
Astronomers at the European Southern Observatory’s La Silla facility in Chile have mapped the full magnetic rhythm of the young Sun-like star Iota Horologii, uncovering a magnetic cycle that flips every 2.1 years (773 days), roughly ten times faster than the Sun’s.
A machine-learning model developed by Stanford University and Italy’s National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology has uncovered more than 54 000 earthquakes and a sharply defined ring-fault system beneath Campi Flegrei, Italy, between January 2022 and March 2025, according to a study published recently in Science.
Scientists in China have identified rare meteorite fragments inside lunar samples returned by the Chang’e-6 mission, the first from the Moon’s far side, according to a study published on October 20, 2025, in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
A newly dated medieval tsunami between 1381 and 1391 CE struck Anegada, the northernmost of the British Virgin Islands, when an M8.0 or greater earthquake ruptured the Puerto Rico Trench, according to an open-access study published in Geophysical Research Letters on October 8, 2025.
A new analysis of Antarctic ice cores reveals that two volcanoes—Kuwae in Vanuatu and a yet-unidentified Southern Hemisphere volcano—erupted almost simultaneously around 1458–1459 CE, releasing sulfur and ash that triggered one of the coldest decades of the last millennium.
A G2 – Moderate geomagnetic storm on October 18, 2025, produced an extremely bright red SAR arc visible from the United States to northern Europe. The event showed an unusually efficient release of energy from Earth’s ring current system, challenging current understanding of how the planet’s magnetic field interacts with the atmosphere.
Asteroid 99942 Apophis will sweep within about 32 000 km (19 900 miles) of Earth’s surface on April 13, 2029, passing inside the orbit of many geostationary satellites. ESA’s proposed Ramses spacecraft aims to fly alongside it and observe this near miss up close.
Astronomers using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory confirmed that Betelgeuse, the red supergiant blazing in Orion’s shoulder, hosts a faint, low-mass companion star, ending decades of speculation about the famous star’s solitary status.
