On Super Bowl Sunday there were interesting contrails in the sky above San Jose.

C'est ainsi qu'ils prévoient de créer des éclipses solaires artificielles dans l'espace pour étudier le cœur du Soleil

Ils utilisent des satellites pour déclencher des éclipses solaires artificielles et observer la partie la plus profonde de la couronne solaire.

Hello dear #FlightSim friends.
We were four aircraft in loose formation, a proper #Friesenflieger outing from #Genoa along the beautiful Italian coast. Just past #Pisa, we spotted the iconic leaning tower – nicely rendered and still defying gravity.

Golden hour lit up #Elba, the Corsican mountains stood proud in the fading light, and by the time we reached #Olbia on #Sardinia, daylight had slipped into a calm NVFR cruise.

Flying together made it even better.

SILVIA: Ultra-precision formation flying demonstration for space-based interferometry

We propose SILVIA (Space Interferometer Laboratory Voyaging towards Innovative Applications), a mission concept designed to demonstrate ultra-precision formation flying between three spacecraft separated by 100 m. SILVIA aims to achieve sub-micrometer precision in relative distance control by integrating spacecraft sensors, laser interferometry, low-thrust and low-noise micro-propulsion for real-time measurement and control of distances and relative orientations between spacecraft. A 100-meter-scale mission in a near-circular low Earth orbit has been identified as an ideal, cost-effective setting for demonstrating SILVIA, as this configuration maintains a good balance between small relative perturbations and low risk for collision. This mission will fill the current technology gap towards future missions, including gravitational wave observatories such as DECIGO (DECihertz Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory), designed to detect the primordial gravitational wave background, and high-contrast nulling infrared interferometers like LIFE (Large Interferometer for Exoplanets), designed for direct imaging of thermal emissions from nearby terrestrial planet candidates. The mission concept and its key technologies are outlined, paving the way for the next generation of high-precision space-based observatories.

Morgenflug im ersten Licht

Kanadagänse (Branta canadensis) im Formationsflug durch die kühle Morgenluft. Das erste Licht des Tages bringt eine ganz besondere Stimmung – weich, golden und klar. Solche ruhigen Momente, in denen die Natur erwacht, sind immer wieder faszinierend zu erleben und festzuhalten.

Diese Aufnahme entstand im Morgengrauen, als die Sonne gerade über den Horizont kam und die Szene in warmes Licht tauchte.

With the unseasonably warm winter and early spring, the Canadian Geese are showing up! As usual, they were incredibly loud as they flew overhead.
