@MAST_News Dear Barbara A Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes, I receive your newsletter because I am interested in MAST (Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes) But I do not know all your insider acronyms. There are about 5.4 Billion Internet users now, and most of them will not know either. Perhaps you can have a checkbox

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1278689162297491 Ralph, Is there any lossless format for videos (a stack of images) of the type you posted? I mostly cannot clearly see now, so I study the data in the images. Much of solar, astronomical, satellite and other images need processing, not just human eyeballs that fail with time. Any suggestions? I see that

I am looking at a false color version of the AIA HIMIIC image of the sun today. It was originally a monochrome image and that is give as HMII, then colorized to make HMIIC. But then dumped into jpg with lossy compression, so many of the pixels have intensities where R G B from the

@LWV In 1993 the League of Women Voters published a book “Nuclear Waste Primer – A Handbook for Citizens”. Now many women are deeply engaged in scientific, technology, engineering, mathematics, computing, finance, government, running organizations, and global topics and systemic issues. I grew up with WWII just a few years in the past, through cold

Comments on your biomechanics website @ProfRausch On your page at http://www.manuelrausch.com/ there are three rotating icons. One for diffusion tensor MRI, one for Finite Element Model and the one I was interested in on the right, no link or text. Perhaps you could spend more time at your http://www.manuelrausch.com/publications page linking to open sites. Recommend

https://www.facebook.com/groups/actividadsolar/ For years I have been using Solar Dynamics Observatory AIA and HMI images and movies to look at the sun. Recently I found that solar observers were mostly using H alpha images where those black lines show up. In the AIA 171 Angstrom movies they are clear and much more detailed. And I wonder

“Beyond femtometer” precision thinking, for systems and society. @StephaneRedon I know you invested time and money into “1 Angstrom” but please start thinking and tracking “picoMeter” and “femtoMeter”. Both will expand considerably in the next year or two. I encouraged the semiconductor groups to work seriously on picometer, because the rate of change in all

If you had lot of memory, cell phones with GPS, precision compass and lidar could stitch together what the humans see. And keep it in a measured 3D and time framework. No matter the trees, or paths

https://x.com/AloneHemant/status/1852757181927698686/photo/1 Assemble kilograms or metric tons of materials with bond energies averaging 10 KeV not 10 eV. There are many such stable materials with active containment. Asking for new fuels and materials to act like old ones is limiting the search for useful things. It just has to be reliable, practical, and useful. It does

In the United States, and probably in many places, perhaps a lot of people do not know how to use, or the advantages of tatami. I can appreciate your skill and dedication. But in a world with
