Röntgenaugen für einen Asteroiden

Lunar 🌙 dust is often angular, sticky and #sharp. “We’ll be looking at how dust adheres to various materials. We’re taking stereo imaging as we descend to the surface to see how the rocket plume is affecting the lunar #regolith. And we’re going to test the usage of electromagnetism to mitigate or prevent dust buildup.” nytimes.com/2025/03/01/science

[First results from #DORN on the #Moon] The recovery of samples of #regolith and lunar rocks, coupled with the analysis of #surface gases by the #DORN instrument, has enabled the scientists involved in the #ChangE6 mission to identify the occurrence of two volcanic episodes on the far side of the Moon, 4.2 and 2.8 billion years ago. For the record, the samples brought back by the #Apollo and #Luna missions from the visible side of our satellite attest to a single volcanic event, dating back more than 3 billion years.

Further analyses are underway, which will “refine previous observations made by remote sensing, which have shown that the far side of the Moon is different, in terms of #geophysics (differences in crustal thickness, for example) and the chemical and mineralogical composition of the rocks, from that of the visible side”, explains Pierre-Yves Meslin, astronomer at IRAP.

Parent rock (Petrology 💎)

In the earth sciences, parent rock, also sometimes substratum, is the original rock from which younger rock or soil is formed. In soil formation, the parent rock normally has a large influence on the nature of the resulting soil; for example, clay soil is derived from mudstone while sandy soil comes from the weathering of sandstones. Parent rock can be sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic. I...

Zkouším desktopové prostředí #Regolith, postavené na Gnome, ale využívající window manager #i3wm (či sway). Nápad je to dobrý, konfigurace přes nějaké klikátko mi vyhovuje, když se nechci vrtat v hlubinách konfiguračních souborů, zároveň jsem zvyklý na tiling wm.
Jen to na Ubuntu 24.10 má nějaké mouchy, keybinding viewer mi naskočí až po 30s po stisknutí klávesové zkratky, ale to bude něco, co se jistě brzy opraví.

J'ai passé la journée d'hier à réinstaller mon ordinateur principal.

Après quelques années sous @regolith (avec une base Ubuntu), je suis passé à Regolith sur Debian.

C'est quand même pas super simple. Du coup, j'ai écrit ce que j'ai fait :

Ce n'est pas aussi user-friendly qu'une installation classique de Debian, Ubuntu ou autre... Sans parler des configurations post-installation qui sont parfois compliquées... Mais ça semble tourner!
