Star Cluster Formation in 3D. Matthew R. Bate This calculation takes my star cluster calculations to a new level, modelling the collapse and fragmentation of a 500 solar mass cloud (10 times more massive than my previous calculations). The calculation produces a cluster containing more than 1250 stars and brown dwarfs to allow comparison with clusters such as the Orion Trapezium Cluster. The initial conditions were identical to those in the original calculation, but the cloud was more massive and larger in radius.

Welcome. O espaço documentado / Portugal. Interior of the Large Space Simulator (LSS) Vaccum Chamber O espaço documentado 3 Julho 2014 Em 2011, o artista Edgar Martins propôs à Agência Espacial Europeia a produção da mais completa descrição de sempre da atividade da organização. O resultado é a exposição A Impossibilidade Poética de Conter o Infinito, patente na Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian, em Lisboa, e que mostra os programas de microgravidade, navegação, telecomunicação, exploração lunar, exploração de Marte e de Mercúrio, entre outros. O artista português sempre teve um grande interesse pelos temas do espaço e do infinito, o que tem sido, aliás, uma temática recorrente no seu trabalho. Um parceiro fantástico Inauguração da exposição A colaboração da ESA, que lhe abriu as portas a mais de 20 locais de exploração e desenvolvimento, foi, na opinião de Edgar Martins, «um grande salto para uma instituição que não tem um historial de diálogo com as artes».

Centro de Arte Moderna - Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian. Edgar Martins (1977, Évora) apresenta uma série fotográfica realizada ao longo de 2012 e 2013 nas instalações da ESA (European Space Agency) em nove países diferentes espalhados por três continentes. Pela primeira vez, a agência espacial abriu portas a um olhar externo e investiu na relação com o grande público através da mediação artística. Mais de 80 fotografias captadas em centros de testes, departamentos robóticos, simuladores espaciais, plataformas de lançamento ou centros de treino de astronautas assumem valor e significado entre o documento e a imagem metafórica.
O trabalho de Edgar Martins conduz-nos à avaliação de uma geo-política do secretismo e da (in) acessibilidade. Nos locais da ESA que visitou, a partir de um protocolo que acolheu o projeto com entusiasmo, a negociação foi constante e o acesso, apesar de real, nem sempre totalmente óbvio. As imagens desta série têm essa qualidade dupla de apelo e distância. O artista fala no “paradoxo da nossa finitude”. Domingos com Arte.

In the 1990's, a Jet Propulsion Laboratory team was looking for ways to shrink cameras down for interplanetary travel. They came up with the camera-on-a-chip, also known as the CMOS sensor. Today, CMOS sensors are found in most of the world's camera phones. Answer: NASA Miracle.

Want to stay on top of all the space news? Follow @universetoday on Twitter Two videos recently released by the Hubble team take us on a tour of two famous and intriguing cosmic objects: the stellar wind-blown “celestial snow angel” Sharpless 2-106 and the uncannily equine Horsehead Nebula, imaged in infrared wavelengths by the HST.
Using Hubble imagery complemented with data from the Subaru Infrared Telescope and ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy — VISTA, for short — the videos show us an approximation of the three-dimensional structures of these objects relative to the stars surrounding them, providing a perspective otherwise impossible from our viewpoint on Earth.

What does space sound like? Unlike what you might have heard in sci-fi movies, sound does not travel through a vacuum. How can space have sound? Sound travels in waves just like light or heat does, but unlike in those mediums, sound travels in space by making molecules vibrate. For sound to travel there has to be something with molecules for it to travel through. In space, the ‘sounds’ that are recorded are the electromagnetic vibrations that naturally occur in the vacuum of space.
Various space probes have recorded the interactions between the Solar Wind in our Solar System and our own planet, as well as Uranus, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune. Recordings have also been made of IO and Miranda, and rings of planets Saturn and Jupiter. The ‘sounds’ of Earth come from the interaction of the Solar Wind with the planet’s magnetosphere, which releases charged ionic particles within the 20-20,000Hz range.

The Cost of Exploring Space: Film vs. Reality. Want to stay on top of all the space news?
Follow @universetoday on Twitter We all know that space exploration, while certainly not the largest expenditure of most countries, doesn’t come cheap. But neither do big-budget science fiction films, either. Special effects, sets, special effects, popular acting talent… special effects… those all come with hefty price tags that make sci-fi and fantasy films costly ventures — although bigger definitely isn’t always better. If you were to compare the price of real space exploration missions (which provide actual information) to the costs of movies about space exploration (which provide “only” entertainment) what would you expect to find?

Some are large and hot, and others are smaller and cooler, but scientists are still on the lookout for an Earth twin. They just got closer, with the announcement Dec. 5 of a planet found by NASA's Kepler space telescope to lie in the habitable zone around its star where liquid water, and perhaps life, could exist.

Watch a Million Particles Collide. Want to stay on top of all the space news? Follow @universetoday on Twitter What happens when you give 1,000,000 particles their own gravity and spring repulsion and send them out to play? Watch the video above and find out. This was created by David Moore, a self-taught computer programmer, aspiring physicist and student at San Diego Miramar College. It’s a custom code made with SDL/C++ and 8 days of render time. According to David there’s a bug at the end “where particles can get arbitrarily high energy… but before that it’s very physically accurate!”
It’s fascinating to watch the attraction process take place — one might envision a similar process occurring in the early Universe with the formation of the first galaxies and galactic clusters out of a hot, uniform state. There just might be hope for us after all. Video by David Moore About Jason Major Tagged as: David Moore, particles, Physics, programming, simulation, video.

A ring or circle of light around the sun or moon is called a halo by scientists. We get many messages throughout each year from people who’ve just spotted a ring around the sun or moon.

EarthSky Facebook friend Randy Miller in Anderson, Indiana saw this lunar halo on the night Sandy made landfall on the U.S. mainland, October 29, 2012.
On the night Sandy made landfall, lunar halos were seen as far west in the U.S. as the state of Washington. There’s an old weather saying: ring around the moon means rain soon.
