Hybrid Autonomy Framework for a Future Mars Science Helicopter
Autonomous aerial vehicles, such as NASA's Ingenuity, enable rapid planetary surface exploration beyond the reach of ground-based robots. Thus, NASA is studying a Mars Science Helicopter (MSH), an advanced concept capable of performing long-range science missions and autonomously navigating challenging Martian terrain. Given significant Earth-Mars communication delays and mission complexity, an advanced autonomy framework is required to ensure safe and efficient operation by continuously adapti…

The White House’s former top Latin America official has said
he fears the US could stumble into a protracted guerrilla war in Venezuela
after Donald Trump ordered a military strike on a boat in the Caribbean Sea,
killing 11 alleged drug traffickers.
Tuesday’s controversial strike off the Venezuelan coast – which was reportedly carried out by an attack helicopter or Reaper drone – came after Trump ordered a major naval deployment to the region,
ostensibly to comb…

heute früh geistesgegenwärtig eine dose eingepackt. so konnte ich vom wie immer wundervollen orchesterprobenwochenendenmitbringbuffet noch was für den nachmittagstee abstauben. 😇

I'm at an interesting intersection between poor as fuck (or adjacent, mostly anarchist) folks and generally well off (mostly liberal-ish) tech folks, so every once and a while I can help with some info that bridges that gap. Right now is kind of a critical time for that.
For anyone not extremely affected by the SNAP thing, here's a reasonable video:

Global CME-driven oscillations in the outer solar corona
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are known drivers of large-scale waves in the low corona. However, wave dynamics in the extended corona and inner heliosphere remain largely unexplored. Here, we report the first observational and numerical evidence of coherent global compressive oscillations in the outer corona and inner heliosphere, revealed by white-light SOHO/LASCO C3 data and an MHD simulation. Analyzing the CME event of 2012 July 23 using Spectral Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (SPOD), we is…
