    Do androids dream of electric sheep?

    or, in the era of #technofascism:

    Do rovers dream with LLM minds?

    There must have been a space-time discontinuity between April 5 and now, and things got really messed up there on Mars. Or here 🙄

    Here on Earth, we think they're still on Sol 1858, but according to #NASA, on Mars, April 5 was already Sol 1882. Or the other way around.

    Arthur Clarke has a novel about such spacetime mess-ups, Time's Eye.

    #Perseverance moved a little again. These days a simple detour around a regolith bump seems to be a real feat for the rover, and to take ages to plan and complete.

    Oh, then… maybe that Visual Language Model, a.k.a. "AI" is involved again? That could explain the extreme caution of the operators that we are witnessing.

    But that's just speculation. We've been living in the dark since the team's last report in December last year.

    Among the newly identified molecules is a nitrogen heterocycle[…]. This kind of molecular structure is considered a predecessor to RNA and DNA, two nucleic acids that are key to genetic information.

    “That detection is pretty profound because these structures can be chemical precursors to more complex nitrogen-bearing molecules”

    Another exciting discovery was benzothiophene…

    faster, and cheaper. That's wishful thinking by useful idiots, at best. Space is hard, and EXPENSIVE. Who knew?

    The Mars Sample Return is shelved because the existing proposal was "too expensive"; yet, no other proposal by the (subsidized) space industry seems to be feasible; and because your favorite billionaire cannot do it at present, there will be no #MSR in the foreseeable future.

    So, back to the #Artemis2 mission. I find NASA's coverage very good. Public outreach was extensive,

    Expected to find sandy beaches and found large boulders?

    #OSIRISREx's encounter with asteroid Bennu resulted in a mystery for scientists who tried to understand why the asteroid didn't behave thermally the way they expected, based on what the spacecraft saw during their encounter.

    The rock samples brought back to Terra held the answer to the mystery. Here's a cool graphic as an appetizer for the article.

    A very interesting closeup of a rock next to #Perseverance, showing some intriguing curved stripes. Millimeter scale.

    @PaulHammond51 reminds me that today is the 5th anniversary of #Perseverance landing on the surface of #Mars, hanging under the #SkyCrane as seen in this #OutOfThisWorld image it captured the moment the umbilical cord connecting them was cut, and the Sky Crane veered off to a heroic crash about 900m NW.

    «[T]he Court has now established a concrete legal precedent in Spain that the Freedom to Study is constitutionally necessary in the context of publicly administered software programmes and algorithms, and in accordance with principles inherent to a democratic state.»

    @civio in Spain, where the words "for the people" apparently still bear actual meaning, shows how it's done.

    "Inherent to a democratic state". #YMMV

    Discovering habitable exoplanets with ground telescopes on Earth.

    And, what a difference to not read LLM generated summaries for doomscrollers, but language written by real scientists intending to *explain* their work and what, how and why things happen.

    It's about time for #Perseverance to be heard again, as the Sun slowly moves out of the way and data can be relayed much more reliably to Earth. Only…

    We've heard nothing from it yet

    Sadly, it seems that nothing will be the same for the rover from now on. After #NASA ditched the Mars Sample Return (#MSR) mission, the #Mars2020 mission may now be forced to revise their plans, considering the possibility of further budgetary cuts, since the mission's end game is now cancelled.

    #EBU, the European Broadcasting Union, does a lot more than just host the #Eurovision song contest: they broadcast high quality classical music programs (like Notturno, my favorite), concerts, sports, political debates and many other events. It's a shame to see them willingly on their knees, licking the soles of #Israel's #apartheid regime, while it's committing #genocide.

    Kudos to Spain, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Iceland and Nemo for actively opposing.

    #Perseverence, apparently an early riser, came back to the same spot it was two weeks ago and is eyeing that same rock, once again.
