Record heat 🔥 has caused an early snowmelt in the West, setting the stage for a potentially brutal fire season.
🔥 Mamas, it’s time to advocate for clean air filters in schools
and resilient local infrastructure.
#FireSeason #ClimateResilience

A snowy, rainy storm is hitting California. Will it curb the coming fire risk?
This storm is the main precipitation expected in the foreseeable future. The weather pattern may allow for occasional rain, but more storms are unlikely to change the trajectory.

RE: #joke #hardship #challenge

Attempting to pick #comet C/2025 R3 (PANSTARRS) ouf of dawn today in MŸn at 55°N, at 4:13, :33 and :39 CEDT: solar depressions 14.5°, 12 1/3° and 11 3/4°, comet elevations 7 1/3°, 10° and 10 3/4° - so darker sky is more important that higher elevation. Visually the comet was underwhelming in 11x70 binoculars: that's certainly one for (bigger) cameras, not the eye. And the viewing window is closing fast anyway.

Legacy preference bans may not increase college diversity, researchers say
At some highly selective colleges and universities, cohorts of mostly white, wealthy applicants have three to eight times greater odds of admission than other similarly qualified applicants. These beneficiaries are legacy applicants, those who receive an admissions bonus for having alumni relatives.

Starting out the morning at 39 degrees F. (That would be 3 degrees C for all of you in the rest of the world.)
Tomorrow is.. (checks calendar)… JUNE 1. 🤯
Granted, where I live in northwest #Vermont is only 45 mins south of the border with #Canada. So we do expect cold.
But last wee…

The most interesting #comet right now, C/2025 R3 (PANSTARRS), imaged by Michael Jäger and Gerald Rhemann on the morning of 9 April in Martinsberg, Lower Austria with a 12"/4 Lacerta-Newton QHY 600 - the brightness at that time was around 5.5 mag. so the hoped-for forward scattering surge is much subdued ... too little dust in the coma? If it stays that way the coma brightness would only rise by another magnitude or so before the comet is lost in the twilight mid-month - but enjoy its great plasma tail (even accessible to low-end smart telescopes, by the way) while you can.

The uncertain brightness and tail(s) development of #Kreutz #comet C/2026 A1 (MAPS) is one thing - see the curves in https://astro.vanbuitenen.nl/comet/2026A1 and https://aerith.net/comet/catalog/2026A1/2026A1.html for guesses and https://cobs.si/obs_list?id=2688 for the current value which is ~8.5 mag. - but the viewing geometry is the other: here it is for 51.5° North (my place Bochum) and 22.5° South (Windhoek) as the view is much better from the southern hemisphere.
The table first gives the elongation (angle between comet and Sun in the sky) and the phase angle (the angle Sun - comet - Earth) which nearing 180° can lead to significant boost of brightness by forward scattering on dust.
And this is followed by the altitude of the comet at the solar depressions given in the top line, for Bochum and Windhoek: sunset and end of civilian twilight and for the latter also the end of nautical and astronomical twilight, i.e. the onset of night. Also of importance is the angle of a hypothetical dust tail (simulated in https://hdr-astrophotography.com) after perihelion, also much better in the South: https://britastro.org/section_news_item/c-2026-a1-maps-a-kreutz-group-sungrazer - but first MAPS has to survive the latter *and* release a lot of dust at the right time ...
