Mercury is closest to the Sun, feeling the strongest solar wind. When spacecraft first explored Mercury in the 1970s, they discovered a faint planetary magnetic field interacting with the solar wind. During its recent flybys of Mercury, ESA's BepiColumbo mission recorded these interactions and found a feature called "whistler waves" (also found in the Earth's magnetic field), only appearing in a small part of the magnetosphere. The mission will arrive at Mercury in 2025.
<p>Observations during two flybys by the Mio spacecraft as part of the BepiColombo International Mercury Exploration Project have revealed that chorus waves occur quite locally in the dawn sector of Mercury. Mercury's magnetic field is about 1% of that of Earth, and it was unclear whether chorus waves would be generated like on Earth. The present study reveals that the chorus waves are the driving source of Mercury’s X-ray auroras, whose mechanism was not understood.</p>
Some folks on X and Bluesky have shown their dislike towards ”the feel-good attitude” of people on Mastodon. In their world Mastodon is too matter-of-fact, no sense of humor and not raggedy enough. In fact, they prefer filth over wholesomeness. It strange. For me it’s like talking with a drug addict as a sober person. Being sober doesn’t make me Jesus Christ, arrogant or a good person, but it reflects the negative feelings in the addicted mind.
One of the type once used the hashtag #JeSuisRolle to fuck with me, since I use my time on other social medias often to talk about the advantages of Mastodon. This concept of being a victim of social media is so funny to me I have started using that hashtag myself.

The first Keynote at GNU Radio Conference has started:
Dr Lindy Elkins Tanton talks about the enthusiastic search for truth about the metal asteroid Psyche, the joy and trials of running (marathoning) a competitive NASA project.
