  1. The Planetary Society 🤝 SETI Institute

    Did you know that the SETI Institute and The Planetary Society have more in common than just a passion for the search for extraterrestrial life? Carl Sagan, one of The Planetary Society’s founders, based the main character of his famous book Contact on the SETI Institute’s founder, Jill Tarter. And we both love the search for life beyond Earth!

  3. The planetary society on the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 impacts on Jupiter. I got to see this first hand at the Singapore Science Centre in 1994 through the telescopes they had set up there for the event. It was an amazing experience.

  4. The Planetary Society's #LightSail2 spacecraft reentered the atmosphere ending a nearly 3.5 year mission to demonstrate the viability of using a solar sail

    Funded by members of the non-profit and run by the #PlanetarySociety the mission started operations twice as far out as the International Space Station, used the #SolarSail for propulsion and made 8,000 orbits

  5. The Planetary Society featuring wonderful images captured by Voyager 1 and 2.

    "As the Voyager missions voyage on, it’s good to look back at how they captured our solar system before leaving it."

  6. A planetary nebula is a phase of stellar evolution that the sun should experience several billion years from now, when it expands to become a red giant. It will then shed most of its outer layers, leaving behind a hot core that contracts to form a dense white dwarf star. A wind from the hot core will ram into the ejected atmosphere, creating beautiful, shell-like structures seen with optical telescopes. This gallery shows four planetary nebulas from the first systematic survey of such objects in the solar neighborhood made with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. X-ray emission from Chandra is colored purple and optical emission from the Hubble Space Telescope is colored red, green and blue. The diffuse X-ray emission is caused by shock waves as the wind collides with the ejected atmosphere.

  8. Die Planetary Health Diet - der Speiseplan für einen gesunden Planeten: IN FORM

    Dr. Marco Springmann, Universität Oxford:
    "Auf der Grundlage dieser Empfehlungen kann sich jeder seinen individuellen Wochen-Speiseplan zusammenstellen. Man kann sich auch ohne gesundheitliche Probleme komplett vegetarisch oder vegan ernähren, denn auch dazu haben wir ausreichend Studien analysiert. Der Grundsatz ist, dass die Ernährung möglichst vollwertig, abwechslungsreich und pflanzenbasiert sein sollte."

  9. Members of our team are also involved in several ongoing and upcoming missions, such as #BepiColombo that is on its way to #Mercury, #JUICE that will launch soon for Jupiter, #Psyche that will visit a metal-rich asteroid, and #LunarVertex that will investigate the strongest magnetic anomalies on the surface of the Moon. Our research involves a mix of planetary geophysics, thermal evolution modeling, and remote sensing of the terrestrial planets, #asteroids, and moons.
