Based on 1 day of checks so far. Checks that failed because of how we test, not because of the site, are left out.
Response time per hour, last 24 hours
Response time by location, last 24 hours
| Location | Average response | Reached |
|---|---|---|
| Berlin 1, Germany | 349 ms | 3 of 3 checks |
| Falkenstein, Germany | 109 ms | 2 of 2 checks |
| Berlin 2, Germany | 501 ms | 6 of 6 checks |
Each check runs from all locations at once. A location far from the site’s servers answers later; that says nothing about the site being slow.
Outage history
No confirmed outage on record. An outage is listed once ScienceAlert could not be reached from at least two locations in two checks in a row.
