Interestingly, the helicopter uses to communicate and receive instructions from the rover and, by proxy Earth. This is the same protocol that is used mainly for IoT applications, like smart lights or switches.

Jeez that's TINY specs. How the heck...? seriously, even with all their shenanigans, props to Nintendo. Or their devs.

Just saw what looked to be a satellite, but it appeared to resemble two very closely packed dots instead of one. Like maybe twice the width apart than the xamidimura constellation. Checked, ISS isn't due to pass over for another half an hour, and it's on the other half of the sky.

Two craft undergoing rendezvous maybe? it was certainly something in orbit because it was going in a straight line at a constant speed. Probably a little slower than the ISS.

Roughly 6:14pm AEST, Hobart TAS, going south-westerly to north-westerly.

In the empty void
Red planet Mars stands alone
Waiting for a friend

Rusted sands blowing
Atop barren, ancient rock
Born from cataclysm

Ice-covered plateaus
Part to reveal vast canyons
And towering peaks

Will anybody
Ever reach this barren land?
Gem among the stars

Been meaning to receive signals from weather sattelites, so I bought a HackRF and an appropriate yagi. However, I now realise...the yagi has a a receive power of 25db, and the HackRF is only rated for 5db. So I need an attenuator.

I'm quite new to RF, but attenuators just involve a setup of resistors, right? So would making a variable one be as simple as just incorporating a potentiometer? or is it a little more complicated than that

It's one of those humid, yet cool afternoon/evenings. Crickets/frogs are chirping, the sky is surrounded with clouds broken by breaks revealing their golden tops and the darkening sky, and the air is thick with moisture and the smell of wet ground.

funny how you can just re-live a game without playing it just by listening to the OST
