Natural Radio Lab

Natural Radio is the VLF radio emissions that originate terrestrially from lightning and within the earth's magnetosphere through interaction with the Sun. Most of these radio signals, sferics, tweeks, whistlers, chorus and others, occur within the range of human hearing, and can be heard with simple receivers as described on this site.

Natural Radio Lab also looks at Space Weather and Geomagnetic Storms. These are affected by solar activity such as the solar wind, sunspots, solar flares and coronal mass ejections or CMEs. In the popular media, these events are often loosely referred to as "solar storms" or "sun storms".

Please explore this site. I hope you go beyond reading what's here and actually go out and take the opportunity to hear whistlers or the enchanting sounds of the dawn chorus.

What is “Project INSPIRE”?

naturalradiolab.com Posted on January 1, 2012 by Mark KarneyOctober 21, 2012

INSPIRE (http://theinspireproject.org) is a non-profit scientific, educational orporation whose objective is to bring the excitement of observing natural and manmade radio waves in the audio region to high school students. Underlying this objective is the conviction that science and technology are the underpinnings of our modern society, and that only with an understanding of science and technology can people make correct decisions in their lives, public, professional, and private. Stimulating students to learn and understand science and technology is key to them fulfilling their potential in the best interests of our society. INSPIRE also is an innovative, unique opportunity for students to actively gather data that might be used in a basic research project.
