A time-lapse of a few nights taken by the #meteor camera I have installed on the roof of my institute. Almost every clear night this winter has been full of #aurora 😁.

The goal is to install 10-14 of these system across northern #sweden and start catching much more meteors with determined orbits (and ones that were also observed by other instruments) and possibly find #meteorites !

And a nice side-effect is lots of aurora and polar stratospheric clouds ;)

#DidYouKnow: The #Geminid #Meteor shower is one of the most popular meteor showers each year, known for its fast, bright meteors.

It's caused by the object 3200 Phaethon, which is thought to be an Apollo asteroid with a "rock comet" orbit.

Jasper est fatigué ! Il a passé une semaine éreintante, à supporter ses collègues tous plus cons les uns que les autres, à devoir se fader leurs histoires, leur week-end, le reportage "super intéressant" qu'ils ont vu sur le truc qui sert à rien, l'article "super inspirant" sur l'autre truc qui sert à rien, et leurs projets... ah, leurs projets ! Jasper, il en peut plus de leurs projets (qui ne se réaliseront jamais car ils vivent bloqués devant un reportage "ultra stimulant") ! Jasper, il aimerait que l'instant de leur discussion devienne subitement un film catastrophe: qu'une météorite viennent se planter dans leur oreille, qu'un volcan s'ouvre subrepticement sous leurs pieds, qu'un requin surgisse de leur café déjà froid, qu'un alien leur sorte des entrailles bedonnantes... que des trucs vraiment inspirants ! Du coup, il ne sait plus pourquoi il est assis sur un champignon géant ...

Celebrated this woo hoo explosions in the sky day with SCIENCE at the American Museum of Natural History! I had always wanted to bring @alifeeney along and for us to touch Ahnighito- the largest meteor on display in a museum in the world. We touched the meteor- and I learned that rubies glow when exposed to short wave UV C and its called "Super Red"!
The red italian neon glass is called "ruby" and we do back it with red light to make that super red. I must say- the effect is most pronounced with rare earth Yttrium Europium phosphors and argon mercury for pure red light backing it, but its still a "fuzzy red" with the neon fill. Never have I wanted to have ruby jewelry so bad... synthetic rubies. I think I really like red.
Would recommend that museum to any science lovers. Go while you still can- and its pay what you want if your a New York State Resident. Hooray for Science!
NYC fireworks were nice from FDR drive :)

A display of fireworks shooting off of the Brooklyn Bridge and from behind the bridge. Lots of onlookers- seen from FDR driveAhnighito Dydactic pronouncing the meteor's staggering weight= 34 tons. It has supports built down to the bedrock to support the massive chunk of ironDidactic of a ruby rub ring in normal light and then under short wave ultraviolet UV C where the ruby is fluorescing bright red.Some of the polished bit of the Alien crystal pattern that iron cools down in while in space. That cooling crystal pattern is not found in iron that cools on earth

#OTD June 30, 1908, 80 million trees and 2,150 km2 (830 sq mi) of forest were leveled by a probable meteoric air burst, known as the Tunguska event.

Can you locate on a #map where the event took place?

Heute ist Tag des Meteors.
Wer reitet so spät auf des Meteors Schweif?
Es ist ist Sailor Merkur, sie filmt es Live!
Sie lacht und jubelt, das ist doch was
Alles klar, sie hat viel Spass.

Naja, reim dich oder ich fress dich :-)
