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

How do I match up your image with ones from public sources? Here is a GONG H-alpha from Cerro Tololo (CHL) for 2024-10-25 13:38:42Z. Is is possible to match images from different places on earth and compare them? https://gong2.nso.edu/HA/hag/202410/20241025/20241025133842Ch.jpg Here is the page I found by searching “live H alpha images of the sun”. Looking

And no shared raw data or videos. I have always hated ‘astronomers’ who say “look what I can do and you cannot afford”. When I was little I had people who

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1278689162297491 – Solar Photography group on Facebook Valter Schemmari Do lossless copies of the images from this group exist, for study, algorithm development? These are jpg (lossy) here and I do not want to waste any time playing with encoded and lossy data. Any suggestions? Where there are videos, likewise. I do not have any

Because the raw data is all there is, the rest is

https://www.facebook.com/reel/3569076983383721 The company successfully completed the first un-crewed space balloon flight. My comment: Stable human and sensor platforms at 100,000 feet (30.48 kilometers) have many practical uses Take payloads and people that high then use solar sails and atomic fuels to leave and come back, or stay on station. It does not have to go

We have preliminary ones now, but the movie suggests — “just keep going”. And if you keep applying the algorithms, the

The galaxy lasts billions, so you can populate it that way and go back and forth many times in the life of a galaxy. My bet is most galaxis are not populated by

Do these stars give off gravitational radiation when they do this? It might be long wavelength and weak and not in the right direction, but it follows very specific orbit and directions,
