NASA found something weird at the edge of the solar system.

Let’s talk about what New Horizons found in the Kuiper Belt, and why we know so little about this part of our solar system:

@skrishna super cool! Would it be possible to get an RSS feed for the newsletter? I really like RSS for getting my news

@reillypascal Yes, there's an RSS link at the bottom of every newsletter but I'm fighting with the website builder to make it more visible on the website.

In San Antonio, waiting for the eclipse and the cloud cover is pretty terrible. How is it wherever you are??

@skrishna it was really nice. I was in a 90% cover area but we had nice weather.

skrishna,
@skrishna@wandering.shop avatar

@eco_amandine that’s good at least! Our cloud cover was bad but the temperatures were nice at least

Normal day as a space reporter, just watching a video of a spacecraft flying through our sun and looking out at the Milky Way 🤯

(from the WISPR camera on the Parker Solar Probe)

@skrishna how can it be that close to the sun and yet still be sensitive enough to see the milky way? I would have expected it to need a long exposure to capture the milky way

skrishna,
@skrishna@wandering.shop avatar

@nashenas WISPR is two overlapping cameras so the short answer is image stacking!!

A daring mission to revive a defunct NASA telescope? Let's talk about Spitzer Resurrector and speculate on why the Space Force (and not NASA!) is interested in this mission.
