A NASA research mission to study the Earth's magnetic tail - a #HamSCI 2026 talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SlVnbRKSKg (CINEMA is a NASA mission of 9 spacecraft in Low-Earth Orbit, recently approved - https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-selects-two-heliophysics-missions-for-continued-development/ - to move into development, to study the Earth's magnetic tail by detecting particles that are accelerated to the poles. MOVIE is its conjugate Citizen Science initiative, part of which includes building out ground instruments to compliment the main mission, expected to include All-Sky Cameras, Magnetometers, and various Radio Receivers to probe the coinciding ionospheric conditions). Also a talk about the SoFIE CubeSat Mission: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imB7_NXQeHQ

I was able to reconnect with #hams from #maryland and people I met at #hamsci, #cedar, #hamvention and #gnuradio conferences. Some folx I haven't seen since the #pandemic! It was good to be out and about. Everyone was cool but no one who was still working wanted their photos shared on #socialmedia because they were concerned about security issues and fear of a #facist planet. This is what it has come down to. SMH 4/4

I came across theblog of KM1NDY this morning (via Amateur Radio Weekly) and read this nice post about #hamsci I particularly love the journal article write-up!

Just completed another great #HamSci conference at my old stomping grounds; at #NJIT. (I did a summer "Intro to Engineering" program there during High School back in the 1970s.) My head is still buzzing with ideas. 1/n

Her #GRCon24 Keynote has started, so Kristina Collins KD8OXT presents about what it is about The Lion In The 𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Path, how we can find wisdom in the ionosphere, asking how to build scientific / engineering community cooperation. She's discussing the nature, uses, abuses and fun to be had with space weather science.

@bud_t @wb2ifs @thenrao and of course the friends we've made along the way in @hamradiosci @arrl #HamSCI The #HamRadio #AmateurRadio community stepped up to make this release real!

I’m working on a grant for a #crossgenerational #colearning project involving #bipoc youth and I’m issuing the following challenge: Tell me about a time when you learned something new and exciting from a young, BIPOC, person or student. What was it? How did they teach you? #blacksinstem #stem #stemm #steam #blacksinscience #blackmasodon #physics #astrophysics #heliophysics #hamsci

I promised some data, and here it is!

I didn't record the actual sound unfortunately but you can see a massive discontinuity in the noise floor at just before 6 AM Pacific time (America/Los_Angeles) followed by highly unsettled noise floor conditions for the remainder of the day.

The next graph picks up again after midnight (and unfortunately stops just before 7 AM because the battery voltage got too low and my radio switched off). You can see the unsettled conditions start to simmer down again by about 5 AM.

This looks like it MAY have correlated with a solar flare that peaked at 7:55 AM Pacific (14:55 AM UTC). If so, it's a fascinating and unexpected result! I just wanted to chart the noise my local power company is making!

Still collecting data for the Gladstone Challenge for HamSci. It was neat to "win" in October, don't expect to for this ecplise since I was near the path of totality. We'll see. But it's all good data for science! #hamradio #hamsci

At #hamsci I was reminiscing with other #hamradio operators about getting #radiograms from “random” #hams who noticed that you upgraded or just got licensed. I want that for our learners! Who do I need to talk with to make this happen?

While I'm working my way through 3.5 GB of propagation data, the #hamsci community have put together a report on the most recent solar eclipse.

For those into #AmateurRadio, there are some citizen science opportunities with the upcoming eclipses in North America, both this weekend and in April of next year. Check out #HamSci for details:

I'm curious if there are many folks planning to do the #Eclipse #QSO and also the spotting party?

I'm planning to do it from Andrews, Texas, but I'm debating about what my radio set up will be. My tentative plan is to have three receivers decoding WSPR, one transceiver doing FT8 and one transceiver doing SSB.

I have a few questions for folks who have done this before:
