Mindspeak - Eclipse Chaser (2019)
Mindspeak – Eclipse Chaser (2019)
Publicația The Prog Mind descria ultimul album al acestor tinerilor austrieci ca fiind un ornament șaptezecist. Comparativ (n.p.), în România e maculatură de la Post Scriptum (1981!!) încoace. Formația Mindspeak s-a înființat undeva prin 2009-2010, la Viena, atunci când membrii erau studenți. Zece ani mai târziu, deși niciunul tot nu împlinise 30 de ani, se lansează Eclipse Chaser, cel de-al…

Mindspeak – Eclipse Chaser
S-a descoperit o altă exoplanetă ce se află într-un sistem format din trei stele, după gigantul HD 131399Ab observat în 2016.
Denumită LTT 1445Ab, noua adulmecare a satelitului TESS se situează la aproximativ 22 de ani lumină de Terra, fiind, în termeni astrofizici, vecină nouă.
Având în vedere că distanța ce-o separă de steaua ei principală este foarte mică (1/10 ecartul dintre Mercur și Soare),…

Astronomical diversions will eclipse you
Astronomical diversions will eclipse you
If you were expecting information about Monday’s solar eclipse, you will be partially disappointed. I won’t be in the path of totality so I can’t give you 100 percent. You’ll have to settle for 76. Unfortunately for science geeks and eclipse-chasers, the trivial has eclipsed the awe-inspiring. I refer to recent and continuing political events. I won’t spend time on those here, except to say that…

The best thing you'll see this week.
On Tuesday, the only solar eclipse of 2016 turned skies dark for those lucky enough to be in southeast Asia and the Pacific. But, arguably, the best view was from Alaska Airlines flight 870 from Anchorage to Hawaii, which was adjusted for the sole purpose of allowing passengers to witness the spectacular event. And ifthis video is anything to go by, it sounds like the best time anyone's ever had at 37,000 feet (11,000 metres).
The planning to make sure the flight would be in the right place at the right time started more than a year ago, when astronomer Joe Rao from the American Museum of Natural History’s Hayden Planetarium discovered that the flight path would take the plane right through the path of totality - but 25 minutes too early.
Instead of accepting defeat, the self-confessed 'eclipse chaser' called Alaskan Airlines and asked them to reschedule... and they agreed.
