Heads Up!

Extremely Rare opportunity for enthusiasts!

This year, there will be a nova, before or by September, as bright as the North Star.
After peak brightness it will remain bright enough, for several days, to observe with binoculars.

You can help research scientists with observational details.

First official nationwide test of #PFAS in drinking water, known to cause cancer, thyroid problems & lower birth weight in offspring, reveals 45% of all US, including those with private wells, are consuming dangerous forever chemicals.
It should be noted iron filtration systems, and boiling water does not remove PFAS.

Congratulations to the entire @VirginAtlantic team consisting of researchers from several universities and private companies for successfully completing the 1st transatlantic flight from London to NY in a commercial Boeing 787 using non fossil fuel made from waste fats.

The researchers will be making their exact process opensource for all.

Have you tried MIT Scales yet?

An excellent resource for learning the basics of many related topics. What percentage of GHG emissions comes from the concrete, freight transport & aviation industries? What is ? ? and much much more!
There are also many lesson plans and activity resources for - level to help teach climate.

As someone living with this highly effective small wearable ultrasound device that allows a user, with no prior tech education, to easily check for very small early stage tumors from the comfort of their home is an extraordinarily welcome innovation. Let us all hope it is quickly widely adopted after safety & efficacy regulation approvals. https://news.mit.edu/2023/wearable-ultrasound-scanner-breast-cancer-0728

50 Year old Mystery Finally Solved.

Ever wonder how Baleen whales (Blues, Greys, Humpbacks), the largest
and some of the most magnificent animals to ever roam the earth,
produce their highly complex communication sounds and whale songs?

For half a century no one knew - until now.

Canada and Northern U.S Your turn!

I'll be back in a couple hours
to start boosting your photos and vid clips. Please try to remember to post your general location. i.e: Upstate NY, Canada- BC, etc. etc.

Keeping my fingers crossed for ya on the U.S west coast.
It's only 9:30 pm pt there.

Will check back in another hour to see if anyone posts anything more than purple sky glow.

BTW: for anyone not familiar with it's aurora related but it's caused by the gas, not directly by the charged particles.
Still pretty enchanting
to watch though!

U.S/CA Keep an eye on the NOAA geomagnetic activity tracker Tonight-Sunday.
Folks as far south as Alabama, U.S may be treated to an #aurora.
In fact, with 5 CMEs headed our way, everyone across the globe should keep an eye on the night time sky.

How fish communicate.

Did you know? Some fish make a sound so loud it rivals a pneumatic drill.
And some use a series of hums and farts to communicate.

Did you know you can make a computer via folding paper?
Researchers from Cornell demonstrated nearly anything
that can be computed can be computed simply by folding paper. https://www.quantamagazine.org/how-to-build-an-origami-computer-20240130/
thnx @RangerRick

These researchers created the worlds smallest origami bird
to demonstrate the potential of nanoscale machines.

students and enthusiasts

Fancy a holiday near the 5th dot from the sun?

As it turns out, Jupiters moon has substantially less oxygen than previously thought. Albeit, it still produces enough oxygen
in a 24 hour period
to keep approximately
one million humans breathing.
