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.
Polar lights are on the ends of the earth and are bent by our magnetic fields.
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.
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.
Treaty since 1967
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.
Trailer park boys, cast aways, desert Island folks welcome
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.
The commerical hopeful SpaceX has had three recent test flights of its interplanetary rocket that they U to use to establish their presence in space, the moon and then Mars. The Starship has tickled the face of low earth orbit collect data then failed to return; something integeral to the program.
Nasa is to fly around the moon in the new Artimas I Rocket then return to earth with its 4 live crew persons in a test for a landing with the historic first female to be on the moon. Good luck.
Trailer park boys
Both Musk’s SpaceX and NASA are progressing in their respective programs for lunar exploration. SpaceX has conducted three recent test flights of its interplanetary rocket, Starship, aimed at establishing a presence in space, the moon, and eventually Mars. While they have collected data from low Earth orbit, they encountered issues with the rocket’s return, which is a crucial aspect of the program.
On the other hand, NASA is advancing with its Artemis I mission, planning to fly around the moon using the new Artemis I Rocket. The mission will also mark a historic event with the inclusion of the first female astronaut to walk on the moon. The program is moving forward as NASA prepares for a test landing with a live crew of four astronauts. This sets the stage for an exciting period of lunar exploration for both SpaceX and NASA.
Creating a moonbase involves several safety concerns that need to be addressed to ensure the well-being of the inhabitants and the success of the mission. Some of the key safety concerns include:
Radiation Exposure: The moon’s surface lacks a protective atmosphere, exposing inhabitants to a higher level of cosmic and solar radiation. Shielding materials and designated shelters must be implemented to minimize radiation exposure.
Micrometeoroids and Lunar Dust: Lunar dust and micrometeoroids pose a risk to structures as well as the health of astronauts. Designing resilient structures and developing proper filtration systems are essential to mitigate these risks.
Life Support Systems: Reliable life support systems are crucial for providing a habitable environment, including clean air, water, and food. Fail-safes and redundancies must be in place to ensure continuous support.
Regolith Contamination: Controlling the spread of lunar regolith (soil) within the living spaces is important to prevent contamination of living quarters and equipment, which could pose health risks and affect the functionality of machinery.
Psychological Well-being: Isolation, confinement, and the challenges of living in a harsh lunar environment can impact the mental well-being of inhabitants. Psychological support and recreational activities play a vital role in sustaining the mental health of the moonbase residents.
Addressing these safety concerns is essential for the successful establishment and operation of a moonbase, fostering a sustainable and secure environment for lunar exploration and potential future human habitats.
In 2024, there will be several celestial events to look forward to in the night sky. Some of the highlights may include:
Solar and Lunar Eclipses: Keep an eye out for the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, which will be visible from North America and parts of South America.
Meteor Showers: Look out for annual meteor showers such as the Quadrantids in January, the Perseids in August, the Orionids in October, and the Geminids in December.
Planetary Alignments: Watch for planetary alignments and conjunctions, where planets appear close together in the sky. These events can often be observed with the naked eye.
Visible Planets: Throughout the year, various planets such as Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn will be visible at different times. Grab a telescope for a closer look at their features.
Remember to check the specific dates and times for these events based on your location, as visibility can vary depending on your geographical position. Enjoy stargazing in 2024!

Completing another 71 year cycle around our sun the mother of dragons so called comet is now visible. Was expecitd to be visible around its April 8th Visit by earth.
This comet is called 12-P Pons-Brooks,the comet will make its closest approach to earth on April 8th. Comets are made of dust and ice and usually pose no threat. However superstition can cause great discomfort and loss of clear thinking when omens are over-believed.
There are about four different colours of comet trails.The trails depend on the chemical make up for colour as they come close to suns they will change accordingly to chemical brew.
Chemicals in comets play a crucial role in determining their appearance and behavior. These cosmic wanderers are composed of various substances, including water ice, carbon dioxide, methane, and ammonia. As a comet approaches the sun, these volatile compounds are heated, causing the release of dust and gas, which forms the characteristic coma and tail. The distinct colors observed in comet trails are a result of the chemical composition, with different elements producing different hues as they react to solar radiation. This fascinating phenomenon provides valuable insights into the composition of these celestial bodies.
Comet 12-p will likey b green as the chemicals are Dia Atom (two Carbon) and when mixing with outgas from the sun and heat will make that chemical signature.
April 10th look 7 degrees from the thin lunar slip in Aries.
The moon will be full for Christmas Day before being full at 3:34 Pacific time on the 26th. This is the 13th and last Full moon of 2023. ( Got that Taylor Swift)?
The Earth is about two dozen thousand miles, or 40,075 kilometers and NASA’S recent discouvery of this solar system has a possible 7 planets that are larger. The completed Solar system indicates that our type system is “more common” then thought.
Kepler-385 is a star located approximately 5000 light-years away from Earth. It is a star similar in size to our sun and belongs to the Kepler field. The Kepler mission, a space-based observatory launched by NASA, aimed to discover Earth-like planets within our galaxy.
The star Kepler-385 has been found to have six verified planets orbiting around it. These exoplanets are located within the habitable zone, which is the region around a star where conditions may be suitable for the existence of liquid water and, potentially, life as we know it.
Studying exoplanets like those around Kepler-385 can help scientists better understand the diversity of planetary systems in our universe and shed light on the possibilities of finding habitable worlds beyond our own. Kepler-385 and its planetary system continue to be a subject of interest and study for astronomers and astrophysicists alike.
