SPACE HEROINES (How to kick ass in space or The bias of AI)
12/13

Series of female super heroines who maintain law and order in the universe and fight against space debris. The work is conceived as a commentary on male-dominated space travel and of male-determined self-conceptions of space conquest. It was created in the context of an artist residency at European Space Agency (ESA/ESOC) in Darmstadt that Güntzel held in 2022. The works were generated using the open source DALL.E 2 AI from descriptions in natural language. Since then, Güntzel has continued to further develop the work, which simultaneously questions the biased practice of AI in which “heroines” are standardized as white, young, slender, mostly blond, scantily clad, over-sexualized women. More inclusive and diverse images emerged only when prompts explicitly contradicted these norms. Even then, the AI often failed to produce a more inclusive image or the results are so impaired that they are unusable (images that lacked colour, figures without faces, etc.). The series is more relevant than ever after Trump instructed NASA “‘to drop everything’ to scrub public sites of mentioning of DEI, indigenous people, environmental justice, and women in leadership” -> https://www.404media.co/nasa-dei-drop-everything-executive-order/

Marssonde MRO fotografiert Rover Curiosity in Fahrt

Es gibt diverse Bilder vom Marsrover Curiosity, die die Sonde MRO aus dem Orbit aufgenommen hat. Aber erst jetzt gibt es eines, die ihn in Fahrt zeigt.

heise online · Marssonde MRO fotografiert Rover Curiosity in FahrtBy Werner Pluta

China wants to launch its lunar probe Chang'e 8 in 2028/29. Remarkable for such a developed national lunar research programme: Its large number of international collaborations, mostly with countries from the global south:

China's first lunar mission Chang'e 1 launched in 2007, with many missions and without any setbacks since then.

Die #NASA-Raumsonde MRO im Orbit um den Mars hat den Rover #Curiosity auf der Marsoberfläche fotografiert. Es ist nicht das erste Mal, dass Curiosity fotografiert wurde, aber das erste Mal, dass Curiosity während der Aufnahme gefahren ist.
Curiosity selber ist auf dem Foto ein winziger schwarzer Kleks, aber die Fahrspuren der letzten Tage sind sehr gut zu erkennen. Es ist sogar erkennbar, dass die Fahrspur aus 2 parallelen Streifen besteht.
