  1. Uzayda bir kalemi kendi uydu gibi yapabilir miyiz? Kalemin hareketi milimetrenin milyonda biri hassasiyeti gerektiriyor—mikro-gravitasyon dünyasında küçük nesneler kendi çekimiyle yörüngede kalabilir. Bu ilginç? 🚀

  2. The revised analysis does not fully rule out #Europa plumes, but it substantially weakens the original #HST #Lyα evidence. After accounting for Europa’s extended #hydrogen #exosphere and improved background modeling, the previously reported localized excess emission is no longer statistically compelling.

  7. 🌖🔭Roth, Retherford, Saur et al revise their 2014 paper: In a reanalysis of 23 #HST/ #STIS #Lyα observations, the authors revisit & revise their earlier #Europa water plume interpretation.

    With improved disk positioning & inclusion of a #hydrogen-#exosphere model, the previously reported localized Lyα excess becomes substantially less significant & may be consistent with noise. The data instead robustly support a persistent atomic H exosphere.

    New #space mission #SMILE will launch today (May 19, 7:52 UTC). The #SolarWind #Magnetosphere #Ionosphere Link Explorer, a collaboration between #ESA and the #Chinese Academy of Sciences #CAS, will study #Earth‘s #magnetosphere in soft X-rays and #UV to better understand the dynamic interaction between both.

    Congratulations to Heike Rauer! 🎉

    I had the pleasure of experiencing her work firsthand in a colloquium at my former institute while I was still a student, and I remember her as an outstanding #planetary scientist. A very well-deserved recognition!

  19. I seem to be in a bit of a #space mood 🪐🔭 at the moment 😅, so I remembered that I once visited the #Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC and wrote a short blog post about it. I thought I would share it again here:

  28. ✨🔭 Interesting news from outer space: #Cassini data plus global #MHD #simulations show that #Saturn’s cusp is not noon-centered like #Earth’s, but shifted toward the post-noon and even post-dusk sector. Xu, Yao, & Arridge et al. identify 67 cusp events and argue that rapid rotation plus internal #plasma sources fundamentally reshape Saturn’s global magnetic topology:

  29. 🛰️ New paper by Knowles et al.: Using the #JWST, the authors observed rapid variability in the auroral footprints of #Jupiter’s #moons in Jupiter’s #atmosphere.

    IR observations show that the footprints of moons like #Io can change on short timescales, highlighting the dynamic interaction between Jupiter’s #magnetosphere and its satellites. The moon–magnetosphere coupling driving Jupiter’s #aurora is more variable than previously assumed.

  30. 🛰️ New paper by Němec et al.: After analyzing ~10 years of #MAVEN wave data, the authors report a #lightning-like electromagnetic #whistler signal in the #Martian #ionosphere. Its frequency dispersion matches theoretical propagation through #Mars’ ionosphere and crustal magnetic fields, suggesting that electrical discharges may occur in the Martian #atmosphere.

A team of space physicists has obtained new results suggesting that the fundamental physical processes that generate auroras are common to different celestial bodies.
