The effect is even further fueled by our oceans, which absorb more than 90 percent of the heat caused by burning fossil fuels, producing water vapor that increases precipitation.

However, because air in the boundary layer interacts with land, the ocean, and everything else at surface level, modeling it is especially challenging.

Coastal desalination plants often pump the brine back into the ocean.

The test concluded a little over an hour later after Starship fired up its engines again and completed a controlled ocean landing more than 3,000 miles away off the northwest coast of Australia.

It will also hone the technology to reach 13 to 15 kilometers, where it can be nearly hot enough to melt lead and pressures are higher than those in the deepest ocean trenches.
