https://public.nrao.edu/ask/ Dear Ask an Astronomer, Where is the pre-correlator data stored? I want to teach and research using your data as examples to see what is missed when the correlator algorithms are used. And are there basic statistics on the contents of all the image datasets (tiles, files, records I am not sure how you

But the idea that civilizations might be detected by their use of unique signatures embedded in their communication struck me as useful. “Earth’s sun” is not a sequence of text characters but a unique all possible frequencies large data signature of the mass

https://www.onsemi.com I was just looking for a datasheet for the AR0522. I was on Digikey looking to buy it, and their “datasheet” is only a summary. I wanted something that shows pins, interfaces and register level programming. I am looking at education on the Internet at all levels. One area where advances seem to be

Desting: Let Me Explain Why It Would Be Preferable To Colonize Titan Instead Of Mars at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_InuOf8u7e4 The deserts on Earth are a lot closer; would benefit humans and related DNA species immediately. And, planet Earth in the long run. People are planting billions of trees, but still not in a sustainable manner. You want

Multispectral Image Sensors using Metasurfaces at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBj1at18NZ8 At 23:35 I always get upset because I also have to deal with KiloHertz, Hertz, milliHertz, microHertz, nanoHertz signals from many kinds of sensors used on the Internet. Many of the “gravitational” detectors only work in narrow bands now, but can go up to gamma ray frequencies and

Black Hole Hunters @BlackHoleHunter We’re back! 
We have new data, a (slightly) different name, and more chance than ever of finding the elusive, hidden black holes that we’re looking for. Find out more here https://zooniverse.org/projects/cobalt-lensing/black-hole-hunters/talk/4563/3230866 Replying to @BlackHoleHunter Black Hole Hunting can be more efficient if it is a global community. Not many doing

Les’ Lab: Bayer filter removal on a Pi Camera: Laser stripping, CFA removal, debayering, and UV conversion I wonder if there are MIPI cameras with no bayer layer. Monochrome MIPI for Raspberry pi and other MIPI able processors. Indeed there are some. I only need a few and cheaper and less time to buy them

I posted a comment just now. But I asked about the camera as well and how to get started Thermal This: Washing Cold Hands in Hot Water Is the camera sensitive enough to image blood flow on the back of the hand, or neck or forehead? If the persons blood pressure changes, does that show

The Science World @scienceworld224 Every dot in this image isn’t just a star but an entire galaxy containing billions of stars https://pic.twitter.com/nigYqmmHTG Replying to @scienceworld224 Zoom in on the pixels and find that most of the colors do not match the original lossless image data, because of jpg losses. Take any lossless image and try

I heard that Elon Musk was going to put high resolution lossless format cameras on all his satellites — pointing at all part of the heavens, to give all humans a live stream of their part of the night sky. Thanks, Elon, for giving back the night sky. Two billion kids say thanks. @X, Could
