  1. The Echoing Universe: How Radio Astronomy Helps Us See the Invisible Cosmos by Emma Chapman, 2026

    How learning to "listen" to the universe using radio waves has revolutionized our understanding of everything from gravity to little green men. "Passionate and witty" Publishers Weekly

    In space, no one can hear you scream. But the universe is far from silent. It's been speaking all along, broadcasting its stories and secrets, for those who know how to listen.

  2. Während wir hier in Bonn schwitzen ☀️, arbeiten unsere Empfänger an Radioteleskopen unter nahezu „kosmischen Bedingungen“: Sie sind dem absoluten Nullpunkt sehr nahe ❄️.

    Damit wir „hören” können, was das Universum uns sendet 📡, werden zentrale Teile der Empfänger auf etwa -260 °C gekühlt 🧊. Diese kryogenen Systeme gehören zu den Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) und Receiver-Komponenten der Electronics Division am MPIfR.

    Ihre Aufgabe ist es, kosmische Radiosignale zu verstärken, ohne dass diese im eigenen elektronischen Rauschen untergehen 📉. Das Ergebnis sind Empfänger, die so empfindlich sind, dass selbst die schwächsten Signale aus dem All messbar werden 🌌.

    Zum Vergleich: Ein Smartphone würde auf dem Mond im Radiobereich ein deutlich messbares Signal erzeugen 📱🌕 – und wäre damit im Vergleich zu vielen astrophysikalischen Quellen sehr stark.

  4. 🛰️ Starlink's Signal Leakage Is Threatening Radio Astronomy's Most Critical Frequencies

    - Starlink satellites emit unintended signals 10,000 times stronger than target cosmic signals.
    - Researchers detected 112,534 Starlink emissions contaminating ITU-protected radio astronomy frequency bands.
    - Current ITU regulations ignore unintended satellite hardware leakage, leaving astronomers without legal protection

  10. Nuestra ‘burbuja’ de radio (~100 años luz) es minúscula frente a la Vía Láctea: por eso el silencio. Un estudio (Cornell, 2016) estima que el contacto no sería probable antes de ~1.500 años. aidoo.news/noticia/W00N7Z

  11. Satelliten kommunizieren untereinander und mit Empfangsstationen auf der Erde. Der Kommunikationsweg: Radiostrahlung. Im Idealfall stören die Kommunikationsfrequenzen der Satelliten Radioteleskope nicht. Doch es gibt eine Ausnahme.

  12. Distant galaxies reveal hidden effect from Big Bang: With these data, they observed a decrease in the radio emission which matches prediction from the supernovae electrons interacting with the Cosmic Microwave Background photons.

    Something for the specialists perhaps, but nice to see evidence for this effect (we have been talking about for ages).

    Ein Teleskop der Weltspitze auf der Zugspitze

    Ein neues Radioteleskop auf der Zugspitze soll in Zukunft dabei helfen, Geheimnisse in den Tiefen des Weltraums zu lüften. Federführend in dem Projekt ist der Lehrstuhl für Astronomie der Universität Würzburg.
