Had an amazing experience attending a workshop on telescope construction conducted by Open Space Foundation at Sri Ramakrishna Institute of Technology. Learned a lot about the science and mechanics behind building telescopes. #TelescopeConstruction #Workshop #OpenSpaceFoundation #Astronomy #HandsOnLearning"

Predicting the brightness of a comet is notoriously a very unreliable science, yet there's a glimmer of hope that Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS (C/2023 A3) could be a very good one in October as it makes its way from the Oort Cloud around the sun for the very first time. Most comets are massive naked-eye disappointments, but once in a great while, they can be amazing. Early and very optimistic predictions say it could be as bright as Sirius or Venus. Currently, Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is a very dim 10th-magnitude fuzzball in Virgo. Sky and Telescope has observing tips.

From exploring space to monitoring #satellites and tracking objects up to 1,000 kilometers away, #telescopes and #antennas play a crucial role in our understanding of the universe. Whether it's observing distant galaxies 🌌 or measuring Earth's 🌍 movements, optical and radio telescopes provide invaluable insights across all climate zones, from the rainforest to the South Pole. The tasks they fulfil and the circumstances under which they do so require the use of highly precise #slewingbearings. This also keeps telescopes and antennas operational for long periods of time. At Rothe Erde, we provide reliable bearing solutions, ensuring telescopes remain at peak performance. Meanwhile, antennas are the unsung heroes of tracking and identification, ensuring reliable performance under any weather conditions. ⛈️ From monitoring ship 🚢 and air traffic ✈️ to providing daily weather forecasts, radio antennas and weather radars are indispensable tools. #thyssenkrupp #RotheErde #bearing #engineering #Science #Technology #Innovation

🛰️ Traditional Earth Observation systems capture images on satellites, then queue them for downlink during the next ground station pass. Ground-based analytic systems must filter out images with cloud cover, a time-consuming and costly process. 🙌 With #Ubotica's onboard SPACE:AI technology, we ignore images with cloud cover and compress the rest for downlink to Earth. ☁️ Our onboard cloud-removal and compression (CRC) SPACE:AI model reduces satellite downlink costs by up to 80% and quadruples utilisation for high-bandwidth imagers. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eu-6a-Ss #SpaceAI #AIinSpace #EarthObservation #Space

Another week...Another telescope. This week I am visiting the beautiful location of the SETI Institute Allen Telescope Array working a pipeline to image star forming regions. In 2023, I spent 65 hours on the telescope observing approximately 100 compact HII regions at 3-5GHz. Now we are going to get to see all the wonderful sources and do science! #astronomy #computing #bigdata

Our first full paper on ballistocardiography has finally been published. This research is part of the preparation for the German Space Agency's (DLR) 'ARTIFACTS' mission, which focuses on health monitoring during parabolic flights. The software we are developing must be exceptionally reliable, as it will operate far above the ground. Therefore, we are implementing highly credible and straightforward methods and algorithms, even though I'm passionate about novel AI technologies. This paper compares different techniques for detecting heartbeats in seismocardiographic signals. It lays the foundation for the comprehensive heart monitoring system that will accompany astronauts on their journey to the stars. This ensures that we can be confident their health will be closely monitored throughout the mission. #space #seismocardiography #biomedicalengineering #spacemedicine https://lnkd.in/dHRU7tJq
