KPS-1b is a “hot Jupiter” exoplanet that orbits a K-type star situated 859 light-years far. With a mass of 1.09 Jupiters orbits every 1.7 days its star. This is my 24th transit measured. This one was done from my amateur observatory “Anysllum” (@AstroSabadell).

Is it possible we could have a double header on April 1st? credit WAI, media. Would be epic!

Rise in the EPAM data may suggest the arrival of the CME front.... are we going to have Aurora Borealis Northern Lights in the house tonight?

This is what makes launch days the best days. Collective excitement across all those viewing spots says it all.

The gap to Type 1 is massive. Every efficiency gain in propulsion I've worked on feels like a tiny step toward that energy mastery.

Hey folks a heads up for tonight and this weekend ! A series of CMEs are enroute and expected to hit within the next 6-24 hours. The first impact is expected this evening or tomorrow morning (MDT), with a series of smaller CMEs following it, included in this mess is a CH HSS rom

Wow—quite favorable solar wind conditions for mid-latitude aurora presently! G2 / moderate storming is possible. I’ll be checking webcams as soon as it’s dark on the east coast of the U.S. reporting live views of the ongoing solar storm: go.theauroraguy.com/webcams

If you could name the first city on Mars, what would it be called?

Diode and fiber lasers keep climbing in power and dropping in cost, and current geopolitical pressures are only accelerating the push toward multi‑MW lasers. Our group is exploring how this surge can drive deep‑space propulsion. A disruption is coming. aviationweek.com/defense/missil…

Zerg labs covered metal flowers and leaves with phosphor powder and welded them to diy tungsten electrodes. Then sealed then inside a glass envelope. Baked and vacuum pumped the whole thing, and tried various gas mixes. Final fill is 4 torr of Xenon plus a droplet of mercury.

⏳ You’re Already Living in the Past… And Your Brain Knows It What if I told you that everything you see right now isn’t happening right this second? Your eyes capture light, but your brain needs a tiny fraction of time—about 80 to 100 milliseconds—to process it. That means

Julian Fried Angus (dirtman) Great man

This guy must not read very much if this is the first time he’s heard these ideas

Is time an illusion? And can we prove it? If we pause to ask what physics has to say about why time flows at all, we find it struggles. Albert Einstein's ideas warped time, quantum theory barely considers it, and no other facet of modern physics can satisfactorily explain it.

If you are not familiar with substorms, I invite you to check out one of my latest blog articles outlining practical tools to monitor auroral activity: go.theauroraguy.com/substorm-pract…

An impressive filament eruption in the southern hemisphere was observed today. Its CME may glance earth on Mar 25 UTC day. It helps that Earth is at -7° latitude, making it more likely that this CME will not entirely pass south of our planet. These filament CMEs can surprise you.

Finally getting towards the end of building SLS. Hopefully no fuel leaks come up

An eruption of plasma filaments has been observed on the southeastern side of the sun. It may have a component directed towards Earth.
