NASA, in its ongoing effort to study just about, well, everything, has outdone themselves this time.
They flew a DC-8 into Hurricane Earl in an effort to study how hurricanes and tropical storms form. SWEEEET!
They also got this really cool satellite image of Hurricane Danielle (northern one) and Hurricane Earl (southern one) in the same image.

Cool post–that is amazing how they do that.
I know! Can you imagine waking up in the morning and saying “Ok, I think I’ll fly a plane into a hurricane today.” Awesome.
