  1. Dit jaar zit de Wageningse Studenten Vereniging #Ceres een eeuw in haar sociëteit aan de Generaal Foulkesweg. Een reis in de tijd naar de intrek in de villa in 1926, de oorlogsjaren, de fusie met de ‘vrouwenvereeniging’, een rampzalige brand en de coronajaren. resource-online.nl/index.php/2

  2. #OnThisDay Wish you a very #HappyNewYear. Stay Healthy! Stay Curious!

    Birth Anniversary of Satyendra Nath Bose (1894)- famous for the theory of the Bose-Einstein condensate. Particles #Boson was named after him.

    The ARPANET officially changes to using the Internet Protocol, creating the #Internet (1983).

    Dwarf Planet #Ceres was discovered by Giuseppe Piazzi (1801).

  3. An overdue #Ceres bringup update and a shoutout to @azonenberg for signal integrity simulations and lots of advice. TL;DR: we've got a working artifact, now it's just a matter of refining SI enough to reach the speeds we want.

  4. The whole "grumbling about #Pluto not being a #planet" anymore discourse bugs me, because it was not really a demotion, it was the inspiration for and promotion into a special class which elevates many other celestial bodies, especially including #Ceres, which is Very Cool and Not So Far en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceres_(d

    our 'moment of doom' for Sept. 25, 2025

    "Code UFB!"

    "The 36-month running average for Earth #albedo (reflectivity) hit another record low as of the latest data release for July, 2025 by #CERES
    "In other words, the darkening of the planet is growing stronger"

  6. What would life trapped in a subsurface ocean do for millions of years? "In his house in R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming."

  7. The dwarf #planet is cold now, but new research paints a picture of #Ceres hosting a deep, long-lived energy source that may have maintained habitable conditions in the past.

    Ceres may have had a lasting source of chemical energy: the right types of molecules needed to fuel some microbial metabolisms.

    Although there is no evidence that microorganisms ever existed on Ceres, the finding supports theories that this intriguing dwarf planet may have once had conditions suitable to support single-celled lifeforms.

    Some 2.5 billion years or so ago, Ceres’ subsurface #ocean may have had a steady supply of hot water containing dissolved gases traveling up from metamorphosed rocks in the rocky core.

    The heat came from the decay of #radioactive elements within the dwarf planet’s rocky interior that occurred when Ceres was young — an internal process thought to be common in our solar system.

    On Earth, when hot water from deep underground mixes with the ocean, the result is often a buffet for microbes — a feast of chemical energy.
