To the seasons of life
The planet parade continues into 2025 conjunctions of interest and partial eclipse on the 29th. Mars is up to something on Valentine’s Day.
Observing conditions are not under our control. Please take the time to plan according to prognostications from authorities.
Things you can do under a wolf Moon.
Number one
Howl (think of Sir Anthony Hopkins who is now without a roof in Los Angeles or a home I guess.)
Think of the planetary alignment at this point. And how lucky we were that some of those big planets shielded us from the asteroid showers for a long time. Particularly, Jupiter and Saturn protected us from the asteroid belt. Now and as of January 21st they will all be lined up which means that they might not be protecting us from as many asteroids as they have before. However, the sky is falling is an ongoing event and thankfully we have early warning in most instances because of the science and technology sector.
Canadian astronaut to be in the Artemis flight mission. Diversity is part of the goal. The four-person crew will include one person of color, a woman and a Canadian.
Good luck…
Sources are saying that the sun is at solar maximum r. And will continue maybe even in the 2026. The 11-year cycle seems to be not to the minute. Look for more magnetic storms particles going by the Earth, producing Aurora Borealis light effects that you might enjoy.
Stars do more than twinkle they produced elements in the furnace of fusion and according to the second law of thermal Dynamics heat goes to cold chaos to order.
So, as SH says you are elemental Watson. (Paraphrase). Have fun you Atoms.
Visible September
Between now and the end of September 2024 there will be an outburst resulting in a supernova event from a two-star system and that will be visible at night. Looking towards Hercules. Find the instructions in the link above.
Did you get some viewing of the electro magnetic storm activity as it sent particles past the earth lately?
Thanks Governments and agencies for the exploration and science that will enable us to come to better understanding and coping with our environment and its levers.
Super Bluemoon 2:26 PM EDT 11:26 Pacific , moon will appear full for about five days either side of full. Super moons are closer to the earth and have effects on weather and tides .
Spacex is a private contractor brought along by NASA to commercially provide service to space projects and development. The company is involved with the Artimas return to the moon program that will send four people back to the moon and have two of them land.
The view that we cannot rely on the earth to preserve our species existence drives Spacex through its founder Elon Musk. The view is strengthened by many nations taking it for strategic purposes that would result in permanent occupation of the moon and it used as a base to do the same on Mars.
This is incredibly expensive and dangerous . The view that we would be better served making earth a better cared for and safer place is mitigated slightly by the advance of science involved in space exploration.
Test flight number five, Starship…
The fifth test of the spacex starship on its heavy lifter rocket is set for August 3rd, 2024.
The moon base that is being planned is not attached to the moon. On Earth and in particular Canada the juristiction for regulation comes in two forms one being the government established over the land making by way of legislation that level of control, this is secured by the permanent attachment of buildings to land under the level of constitutional power given and its presence to govern.
The other being finance, dead pledge or other lenders and financers have laws that they can use to have returns of investment or other rewards out of underwriting.
Like Antarctica the moon is treaty bound not to be owned by any separate jurisdictions and like a trailer park equity is hard to realize. In tangibles such of knowledge can be freely exercised but like photos once printed they surly lose claim to tangible value as knowledge can seldom be bound.
The governance and allocation of rights to the moon are indeed guided by an international treaty known as the Outer Space Treaty. This treaty, which came into force in 1967, outlines principles for the use and exploration of outer space, including the moon. It establishes that the moon and other celestial bodies are not subject to national appropriation by any means, and that they are to be used for peaceful purposes. Additionally, the treaty stipulates that the exploration and use of outer space, including the moon, should be carried out for the benefit of all countries and should not be subject to individual appropriation. Therefore, the tangible value of the moon cannot be owned or shared in the traditional sense, and any rights or claims to the moon must comply with the guidelines set forth in the Outer Space Treaty.
Poetic justice is available to all that did not respect the permanence of this blue pearl, home is were the heart is so be respectful as you realize what you are giving up for your adventure.
Good luck, out.
Hey Merit what do you say?
