On Sunday evening (Sept. 22), SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk posted on X a photo of dripping and damaged rocket hardware being lifted out of the ocean. The mangled metal is part of the first-stage booster that flew on the most recent Starship test flight, Musk said. "Like the ruins of a futuristic, long-dead civilization," he wrote in another post a few hours later.

Scientists working on the mission announced last week that Perseverance is enroute to Dox Castle, a patch of Jezero Crater whose rocks may have been dumped by the asteroid impact that carved the crater out.

Уважаемые коллеги!

На заседании Ученого совета ИТФ в пятницу 27.09 в 11:30 будут заслушаны 2 доклада:

1). А. Скрипченко
Ренормализация в однородной динамике (по материалам докторской диссертации)

Изучение динамических и топологических свойств перекладываний отрезков и их естественных обобщений является важной задачей, находящейся на стыке
нескольких разделов математики: теории динамических систем, маломерной топологии, алгебраической геометрии, теории чисел и геометрической теории групп. Известные результаты о перекладываниях отрезков опираются на изучение свойств процесса ренормализации - алгоритма, строящего по исходной динамической системе последовательность эквивалентных ей с меньшим множеством-носителем.

Я расскажу о некоторых обобщениях этих наблюдений на другие классы отображений отрезка в себя, а также о приложениях полученных результатов к задачам маломерной топологии, в том числе к задаче С. П. Новикова об асимптотическом поведении плоских сечений 3-периодических поверхностей.

ID и пароль онлайн-трансляций в Zoom те же, что и для предыдущих трансляций семинаров и докладов на Ученом совете:
https://zoom.us/j/96899364518?pwd=MzBsR2lYT0lYL2x2b1oyNU9LeWlWUT09
Meeting ID: 968 9936 4518
Пароль: 250319

При числе желающих не менее 5 будет организован автобус.
Для записи на автобус из Москвы в Черноголовку необходимо до 18:00 четверга отправить письмо на адрес электронной почты bus@itp.ac.ru
После этого записавшимся до 20:00 поступит подтверждение об отправке или неотправке автобуса в зависимости от числа записавшихся.
Запись на обратный автобус - на Ученом совете.

This Week In Space podcast: Episode 129 — Back From Mars!

Boeing Space & Defense chief Ted Colbert is leaving: reports | Space Quiz! Why are we unable to view all of the universe with our eyes? | This Week In Space podcast: Episode 129 - Back From Mars! Created for znamenski.spacecom@blogger.com |  Web Version September 23, 2024 CONNECT WITH SPACE.COM       Something amazing every day. SIGN UP ⋅   WEBSITE   The Launchpad Boeing Space & Defense chief Ted Colbert is leaving: reports (NASA) Boeing is getting a new space chief. Ted Colbert will no longer be CEO of Boeing Defense, Space & Security, one of the aerospace giant's subdivisions, according to media reports. Those reports cite a staff memo circulated today (Sept. 20) by Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg, who took the top job in August. Full Story: Space (9/20)  Space Quiz! Why are we unable to view all of the universe with our eyes? Learn the answer here! It's too far away It's too old Our eyes can't see parts of the electromagnetic spectrum Earth is too small This Week In Space podcast: Episode 129 - Back From Mars! (TWiS) On Episode 129 of This Week In Space, Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik talk with Dr. Pascal Lee about his Mars Simulation Base in the Arctic. Devon Island, a polar desert in the High Arctic, is one of the most convincing Mars analogs on Earth. That's why Pascal Lee built his NASA-affiliated research base there. On this episode he returns to discuss his summer field work, Martian volcanoes, and to discuss possible alternatives to NASA's plans for the Artemis lunar base.There's a lot to know, and he brings deep passion--and some controversy--to the conversation!

Full Story: Space (8/7)  Spaceflight NASA astronaut, 2 cosmonauts return to Earth today (Sep 23) (NASA) A NASA astronaut and two record-setting Russian cosmonauts are set to head back to Earth on Monday (Sept. 23), and you can watch their homecoming live. Russia's Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft, with Tracy C. Dyson, Oleg Kononenko and Nikolai Chub aboard, is scheduled to undock from the International Space Station (ISS) on Monday at 4:37 a.m. EDT (0837 GMT) and land on the steppe of Kazakhstan about 3.5 hours later. Full Story: Space (9/22)  Science & Astronomy Massive radio survey reveals our universe's structure (MALS Team) When we look out into the universe with our unaided eyes, we are really only seeing a small chunk of what's actually there. That's because there are parts of the electromagnetic spectrum that our visual faculties are not sensitive to. Radiation is being emitted by all manner of cosmic phenomena across this spectrum, yet we're only able to physically see wavelengths within the visible light range without the help of external tools - but luckily, astronomers have access to telescopes that allow them to observe the universe across this continuum. Full Story: Space (9/23)  SpaceX Meet the SpaceX Crew-9 astronauts launching this week (NASA) Two astronauts are scheduled to launch to the International Space Station (ISS) next week, with two empty seats aboard their spacecraft. It's an atypical launch for a crewed SpaceX mission to the ISS, which customarily ferries four astronauts at a time. Originally, Crew-9 was slated to fly the usual four, but NASA astronauts Zena Cardman and Stephanie Wilson were removed from the flight when NASA made the decision to return Boeing's Starliner spacecraft without its crew, leaving astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams aboard the ISS in need of a ride home. Full Story: Space (9/20)  Technology How Canada is preserving its supersonic Avro Arrow jet (Ingenium Canada) Canada's Avro Arrow supersonic jet was suddenly canceled in 1959, a controversial decision that benefited NASA. How is Canada preserving the few pieces of the aircraft that remain? Full Story: Space (9/22)  Search for Life What did China's Chang'e 6 lunar far side samples reveal? (CCTV) We finally have a glimpse of the first-ever samples collected from the far side of the moon. The first paper on the samples collected from China's Chang'e 6 lunar probe reveals that the specimens differ in some ways from those collected from the moon's near side. Thus, they could provide fresh insights and lead to new theories about the moon and its evolution.
