#satellite — Public Fediverse posts

One of the most complex #visualizations of #Earth’s ocean dynamics to date, by #NASA.

Leveraging #satellite #altimetry, #scatterometry, and state-of-the-art numerical #ocean #models, the #map exposes the planet’s vast current systems: oceanic jets, #mesoscale eddies spanning hundreds of kilometers, and the Gulf Stream.

(Looks quite a bit like Van Gogh’s Starry Night! Yet, this is pure fluid dynamics, no #AI involved.)

“Amazon filed an #FCC application on Saturday to launch a new Leo #satellite constellation that will provide direct-to-device satellite service for “voice, messaging, data, and emergency services.”

If approved, #Amazon will begin deploying the new constellation of 5,105 satellites in 2028.”

Satellites, HAPS, and aircraft are quietly becoming something more than relays. They're turning into compute nodes.

The Datacom Industry Association Aerospace #WorkingGroup just released a whitepaper on this shift: "Aerospace-enabled Services — The Edge-Cloud Continuum Beyond the Atmosphere."

Found a #satellite TV dish in the neighbors’ trash. Research suggests it wouldn’t be much use with an #sdr dongle for receiving GOES imagery. Probably not gonna bother taking it.

#KnowledgeByte: Global #Navigation #Satellite Systems (#GNSS) are constellations of orbiting satellites that provide autonomous geospatial positioning, navigation, and timing services worldwide.

These systems enable users to determine their location on Earth through a network of satellites, ground control stations, and receivers.
