Auch wenn gerade viele Monde die Runde machen, möchte ich doch noch eine Variante ergänzen.
Gestern Abend haben wir unser Abendessen eingepackt und uns auf ein ruhiges und vor allem lichtarmes Fleckchen begeben. Das Essen konnten wir beim Sonnenuntergang genießen, dessen Ende aber direkt die "Arbeit" einläutete.
Zunächst war ich etwas enttäuscht, denn es war sehr bewölkt und kein Mond zu sehen. Naja, zumindest ein Abendessen "with a view", wie meine Frau gerne sagt. Doch dann die Überraschung. Binnen Minuten ziehen die Wolken ab und wir sehen einen sternenklaren Himmel mit einem roten Mond. Für mich ein absolutes Traumfoto.

Character Creation Challenge 2025 - Day 30 - Celestial Bodies - Grim Tokens
Powerfully unique faction tracking and mission management mechanics coupled with fascinating mech design in a near post-human future gives us a great opportunity to blow shit up.

Capture of an ancient Charon around Pluto | Nature Geoscience
Pluto and Charon are the largest binary system in the known population of trans-Neptunian objects in the outer Solar System. Their shared external orbital axis suggests a linked evolutionary history and collisional origin. Their radii, ~1,200 km and ~600 km, respectively, and Charon’s wide circular orbit of about 16 Pluto radii require a formation mechanism that places a large mass fraction into orbit, with sufficient angular momentum to drive tidal orbital expansion. Here we numerically model the collisional capture of Charon by Pluto using simulations that include material strength. In our simulations, friction distributes impact momentum, leading Charon and Pluto to become temporarily connected, instead of merging, for impacts aligned with the target’s rotation. In this ‘kiss-and-capture’ regime, coalescence of the bodies is prevented by strength. For a prograde target rotation consistent with the system angular momentum, Charon is then tidally decoupled and raised into a near-circular orbit from which it migrates outwards to distances consistent with its present orbit. Charon is captured relatively intact in this scenario, retaining its core and most of its mantle, which implies that Charon could be as ancient as Pluto. Numerical simulations suggest that Pluto’s moon Charon was captured intact, in a scenario in which the two bodies temporarily merged in a collision but did not coalesce due to solid strength effects.

🌚 The need to assess the abundance and availability of #spaceresources on #extraterrestrial bodies is increasingly putting the available #scientific tools to the test.
This type of assessment of various #CelestialBodies is not only bound to #space but can also be done on #earth. During the three months he spent with ESRIC, Daniel Holub, visiting #researcher from Brno #University of Technology analysed a Lunar #meteorite sample.
Daniel used Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS).
