Quantum Reality questions Naive Realism, Part 2. Einstein claimed the moon would still exist if no one was looking at it. Was he correct? Is there a single moon or are there innumerable species-specific moons? Is the moon a cloud of probabilities prior to observation? Who or what is the observer? #einstein #einsteintheory #quantumentanglement #quantumconsciousness #quantummechanics #wavefunction ----- Follow along with #QuantumBody, now available at your favorite retailer or at https://bit.ly/Quantum23 (with free gifts).

Thor's Helmet (APOD: 2024 Jan 09) Image Credit & Copyright: Ritesh Biswas https://lnkd.in/dteSS3PG Explanation: Thor not only has his own day (Thursday), but a helmet in the heavens. Popularly called Thor's Helmet, NGC 2359 is a hat-shaped cosmic cloud with wing-like appendages. Heroically sized even for a Norse god, Thor's Helmet is about 30 light-years across. In fact, the cosmic head-covering is more like an interstellar bubble, blown with a fast wind from the bright, massive star near the bubble's center. Known as a Wolf-Rayet star, the central star is an extremely hot giant thought to be in a brief, pre-supernova stage of evolution. NGC 2359 is located about 15,000 light-years away toward the constellation of the Great Overdog. This remarkably sharp image is a mixed cocktail of data from narrowband filters, capturing not only natural looking stars but details of the nebula's filamentary structures. The star in the center of Thor's Helmet is expected to explode in a spectacular supernova sometime within the next few thousand years.

Mirror Worlds of data envelop us. I was reminded of a video Sparkgeo created a few years ago about the mirror world. It's a great visual queue to highlight the value of location as a vector along which to join data layers. Of course, this is the central premise of #GIS. Still, I would argue that with the addition of massive #cloud compute, #smartdevices and #smartspace, our capabilities have outstripped our imaginations; this is what I call #moderngeospatial. https://lnkd.in/g92YjHvW #geospatial #cloud #smartdevices #space #earthobservation

📃Scientific paper: An analysis of the fragmentation of observing time at the Muztagh-ata site Abstract: Cloud cover plays a pivotal role in assessing observational conditions for astronomical site-testing. Except for the fraction of observing time, its fragmentation also wields a significant influence on the quality of nighttime sky clarity. In this article, we introduce the function Gamma, designed to comprehensively capture both the fraction of available observing time and its continuity. Leveraging in situ measurement data gathered at the Muztagh-ata site between 2017 and 2021, we showcase the effectiveness of our approach. The statistical result illustrates that the Muztagh-ata site affords approximately 122 nights of absolute clear and 205 very good nights annually, corresponding to Gamma greater than or equal 0.9 and Gamma greater than or equal 0.36 respectively. ;Comment: 8pages, 5 figures Continued on ES/IODE ➡️ https://etcse.fr/5PKA ------- If you find this interesting, feel free to follow, comment and share.
