@guy_eats_twit3r @topiaspacenerd @Wakaloover @Truthful_ast Both is good! But id say that doohickey is still needed as regulations alone won't make the potentially dangerous satellites already in orbit go away
English
@RaptorLiver @topiaspacenerd @Wakaloover @Truthful_ast Easier way to prevent that is just by adding regulations to newer sattelites to have more fuel to do a controlled deorbit burn like what starlink has. The only problem with that is China and Russia doesn't follow those, and they've caused problems like these before.

Truly the most European thing ever lmao

ClearSpace has developed a spacecraft designed to clean Earth’s orbit by capturing defunct satellites using robotic arms. The company works with the European Space Agency and UK Space Agency to safely deorbit satellites. The mission aims to reduce debris and improve safety.

Blender has taken a principled stance and is sacrificing future donations from Anthropic to reaffirms their stance that they are supportive of artists and creators
This is very admirable and we encourage all of you to donate to Blender to show your support and appreciation 🫖

@guy_eats_twit3r @topiaspacenerd @Wakaloover @Truthful_ast its meant to stop more bolts going at insane speeds from being created by derelict satellites. It adresses the root cause
English
@topiaspacenerd @Wakaloover @Truthful_ast and how will this stop a bolt going at insane speeds? The only sensible approach is to just add whipple shields because you can't do anything about it

It’s #SunDay! Here’s your space weather report for the week of April 17 - 23: •6 M-class flares •0 C-class flares •34 coronal mass ejections •1 geomagnetic storm This video from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) shows the week’s activity. Two X-class flares erupted right after the end of this reporting period — they’ll be first up in next week’s space weather report! Another thing we *don’t* see here: comet PANSTARRS (C/2025 R3)! The comet is currently passing between the Sun and Earth, and ESA/NASA’s SOHO spacecraft is watching the comet as it streaks across the view of its C3 coronagraph. We'll share more views of that comet later; in the meantime, check the latest imagery here: go.nasa.gov/4ue9ppn Learn more about space weather: go.nasa.gov/4bLKwte

The late poet and translator Stanisław Barańczak once wrote a verse that can be read in both English and Polish (though does not make a huge amount of sense in either, and really messes with your head if you speak both languages)

@lazynjnja46074 @KeepJiujitsuGay you can kind of see a halfway point between that and other stars by looking at the moon thru binoculars or something. its like a little wobbly around the edges
English
@lazynjnja46074 @KeepJiujitsuGay technically the sun also twinkles since it still getting distorted by our atmosphere its just that its so big and blinding that you dont notice anyway
English
"twinkle twinkle little star is for babies"
