  1. 🌌 LAST CHANCE TO SEE TITAN’S SHADOW 🌌
    On Aug. 19, Saturn’s largest moon casts its inky shadow across the planet—one of the final transits of this season! Visible in backyard scopes, this show won’t return until the 2040s. WAS member Dana Weisbrot will be aiming for an even sharper capture than this July effort. Don’t miss it: spaceweather.com

  2. The planets can be observed not only in visible light but also in the radio range! The first attempts at radio observations of planets began in 1954 when intense radio bursts from Jupiter were detected. This radiation did not come directly from the planet but from processes in its magnetosphere.

    #FunFact: Jupiter's magnetic field is massive, even relative to the size of the planet itself – it extends over 650 million kilometers (to the orbit of Saturn!) and is 4000 times stronger than Earth's magnetic field. 🚀🌍 A pulsar's magnetic field, however, can be up to 100 trillion times stronger than Jupiter's!

    Radio waves penetrate deep into planet atmospheres or the surface, providing us with information that cannot be obtained through other methods. For example, phase fluctuations in the radio emissions were detected on the Moon and Mercury. On Mars, high electrical conductivity in the soil due to iron oxides was detected.

    #funfact Radio astronomy amateurs assure that Jupiter can also be "received" and "heard" at home. All you need is a radio receiver for radio waves in the 18 to 22 MHz range and an antenna specifically designed for this frequency range. 📡

  3. Extraterrestrial atmosphere (Planetary science 🪐)

    The study of extraterrestrial atmospheres is an active field of research, both as an aspect of astronomy and to gain insight into Earth's atmosphere. In addition to Earth, many of the other astronomical objects in the Solar System have atmospheres. These include all the giant planets, as well as Mars, Venus and Titan...

  5. Interesting essay I found: "Dune", for example, is set in a space-operatic universe, but really is a planetary romance (and perhaps the apex of the entire genre). Yet of late the whole term has disappeared and been subsumed into "space opera". 🤔

  6. I got an email today from one of the citizen science projects.

    "The project data is currently being used by the UN Logistics Cluster in planning meetings, when organising humanitarian aid routes. Understanding where the wadis are located helps those on the ground to plan the most effective routes, and anticipate locations of flooding for the rainy season, beginning in June. This data is extremely helpful to gain an understanding of the most effective route for these long journeys, thus saving time and costly fuel.

    For now, this project has ended. However, we are working in the background to prepare future Planetary Response Network projects and will make sure to keep you updated!

    If you are in distress and need or want support, here is a list of international crisis support hotlines so you can get support wherever you are in the world.

    Thanks,
    Alice and the Planetary Response Network team"


    Profound sort of feeling.

    #EcoTechnoPolitics:
    Beyond Digital–Green Twin Transitions

    Digital infrastructures are ecological.
    Sustainability is political.
    Governance must be planetary.
    Twin transitions aren’t enough.

  12. Avatar: The Way of Water, and mind uploading

    A blog post about the movie, along with some fan speculation about what the mind uploading (or transference) technology and equivalent functionality in the Pandoran ecology might mean for where these movies are going.
