https://www.facebook.com/groups/172438633343696 Dear Allsky, I went through over a thousand live webcams on the Internet to see what people are sharing live now. My estimate is somewhere around 10,000 overall. Many of them have half sky (show half the image with sky) and in those they will capture comets, meteors, satellites, stars, planets, planes and many

With LEDs going to lower and lower energies, moving electrons is probably less expensive than digging holes and trying to concentrate the rather thin light on Mars. I was gathering what groups and resources are needed to send small nuclear packages to Mars to provide the energy needed. The old dream of atomic energy was

I would like to see a small region of the night sky at high frame rate. The ZWO cameras I have looked at could run 128×128 at 480 frames per second. That lowers the photons per second at the sensor, but the photos each do their bit. And the local noise is uncorrelated. If I

Then another pitch for global cooperation, and for help with gravimeter arrays to scan the atmosphere, the oceans, the earth interior, the moon, sun and planets and moons.

Alexander If you search for “fluctuations” OR “fluctuations” on google, it will give you about 97 Million entry points. For the last 23 years I have been tracing through these kinds of searches to see exactly what people are doing with terms like “fluctuations”. As you can imagine, this particular term, “fluctuations” has lots of

I have not used PixInsight, but read what they are doing at https://pixinsight.com/. The commercial license is 230 Euros (about $275). They have free versions, but not sure what limitations, if any. All their image processing workshops listed are from 2017. There are software tutorials by their “PTeam” members at https://pixinsight.com/tutorials/index.html I do not know how many

Ben NASA Profile Video 1 Trying to summarize the methods and issues and goals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aARsXPWQnRo This is a draft review of some NASA.gov pages. I am trying to formalize and simplify the recommendations for the whole Internet. NASA is so important to the human species right now. If this solar system colonization goes smoothly and

At https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67eTLeNwLgE Alexander, You are using what looks like to be a good computer tool for these calculations and visualizations. But you don’t explain your tools and give links to let others know what to use, or what you recommend. I watched your hysteresis video. It is really shaky and hard to watch. You could use

Emily, I have not forgotten about you and NASA.gov. In fact, I spent many full days checking different aspects of what is going on, who is doing it, who it serves, how much (if any) user involvement is allowed, the level of practice shown in the pages, integration (or not) with contractors and federal agencies,

Nora, Thanks, I will keep that in mind. If you cast tiny angular (square, triangular, for example) blocks of plastic on ends of an optical fiber, then polish the whole thing, that would give a fiber that would alighn properly with a corresponding hole and fiber (or fibers). It is something that human hands could
