"The Human Condition's Operating System needs to run on Love" Founder & Creative Director Synchronistory®, Planetary Party Planner, Changel (Change Angel)
UAP. UFO. Alien. Reverse engineering. The buzzwords may vary but the message remains steady: a taboo subject that has captivated moviegoers, scientists and the general public across nations throughout decades is starting to assert itself publicly. Whether one believes it's high time, or that the public is not yet ready for such mind-bending implications (especially in such a volatile global landscape) is up for opinion. However the extraordinary "technology propulsion" described in many of these testimonies already exists - in nature! Go to a summertime riverbed. Observe how insects dart in the sunlight. Not bees. Not dragonflies. Not butterflies. Observe the tiny ones, that move with aerial speed erratically, hovering and then vertically ascending or descending or flitting sideways in maneuvers mimicking that of these highly advanced craft being referenced. They seem to suddenly vanish, only to then reappear depending upon one's viewing angle within the sun's rays. #Magician David Copperfield was masterful at the art of illusion, making large structures like the #statueofliberty seemingly disappear: https://lnkd.in/efCPTfyh Perhaps what we consider to be "aliens" already exist amongst us - in the most natural ways. Perhaps we're looking in all the wrong places. And perhaps it's important to hone our perceptions about the world around us (and within us) to better perceive whatever we're overlooking in the process of what we're seeking. If ever we needed a mature "foreign relations" committee to steward this far-out exploration as Dr. Steven Greer and #RussellBrand imply - a committee of great equity, inquiry, diplomacy, humility - it is in this extraordinary discovery of the tiny-big picture starting to reveal an "other" reality already here. What do you think - are we ready, SETI Institute, NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, European Space Agency - ESA? #ufos #universe #reverseengineering #uaps #congress #nature #aerialphenomena #military #extraterrestrial #tictac #humanity #diplomacy #nationalsecurity #foreignaffairs #magic #peace #technology #insects #davidgrusch #davidfravor #jeremycorbell https://lnkd.in/e3KPDTKA https://lnkd.in/ejNxXgZt

Hello everyone! Today we are introducing a new series of posts called “Historical Marker Highlights”, which, as the name implies, gives a shout out to historical markers relating to STEM history in Ohio. We want to highlight the fact that history occurs all around us and not just far away places. You never know, a notable piece of STEM history might have occurred right in your own backyard that might have played a role not just in local history but national history as well. For this first Historical Marker Highlight we are giving a shout out to an important experiment that has a connection to Ohio. This marker is especially fitting given that we are nearing the end of April and it is around this time of year that you hear the age-old phrase “April showers bring May flowers”. Today’s historical marker is located in Wilmington, Ohio and commemorates the Thunderstorm Project¹. The experiment was the first major study conducted in the United States that, you guessed it, examined thunderstorms². The study was funded and mandated by Congress in 1945, and became necessary as a result of World War II, which caused a boom in the aviation industry, aircraft incidents related to thunderstorms occurred more frequently². However, in the early 20th century, little was known about thunderstorms, making such a study necessary². The project occurred in two phases, with the first occurring in 1946 in Florida, due to the fact that thunderstorms happen there more often than anywhere else in North America³. The second phase took place in Clinton County in 1947¹. The area was chosen due to the frequency of weather fronts that occur there¹. That phase of the experiment involved pilots from the Clinton County Air Force Base, who (we kid you not), flew through storms in every stage of their development and different levels of intensity¹. Along with this, scientists used various weather instruments along with balloon soundings and radar¹. The observations that were collected provide a greater understanding of thunderstorms, particularly about their life cycles and their structure¹. The results from the study, which were analyzed by the University of Chicago, were published in 1949¹. Learn more about the historical marker and where it is located below along with more information about the Thunderstorm Project. Stay tuned for our next post on May 10th!

TGIF! 1. Hard to believe this isn't a meme. 2. I've got a joke for you, "3 men walk onto a panel to talk about human reproduction..." #manel 3. How much do nannies make in microgravity? (Note - the lowest paying union job in orbit, according to MilkyWayEconomy is $3M a year. Never hire the lowest paid nanny btw.) 4. What is the mortality rate for Black women in Space? For instance, as of 2021 the CDC reports that Black women's mortality rate during pregnancy was nearly 70 deaths for every 100,000 live births. That is 2.6 times the rate for white women, regardless of income or education. How have these three fine Gents solved for that? 5. If you ask ChatGPT to solve #4 their solution involves signs that read "No Blacks. No Mexicans. No Dogs." Which is why AI is only as cool as its training materials. Sean Manion PhD 6. Last but not least, if babies don't feel the full effect of 1G, how will their muscles grow enabling them to a) swallow b) gain head and neck control c) situp (all crucial milestones to crawling and being able to eat solids) In conclusion: This has to be a meme for "Tell me you've never changed a diaper without telling me you've never changed a diaper."
We are excited to join this facinating webinar about Human Reproduction In Space, by Humanity In Deep Space, moderated by Kris Kimel. We look forward to see you there and invite you to register via: https://lnkd.in/er6nEyjT #SpaceBornUnited #AssistedReproductiveTechnology #ARTIS Scott Solomon Alexander L.

These specialized technical glasses are key components of instruments for modern astronomical observations.
This #LightDay2024 we’re shining a light on how our Corning Advanced Optics team is helping the Rubin Observatory shape light to explore dark matter and map the formation of the Milky Way. Slated to begin its 10-year mission next year, Corning delivered the secondary mirror made from Corning® ULE® Glass (Ultra-Low-Expansion Glass) and manufactured several large HPFS® Fused Silica blanks for the “World’s Largest Digital Camera. Read more about Corning’s legacy and future in world defining astronomy projects http://ms.spr.ly/6048Ykpwp. (Image credit: Rubin Obs/NSF/AURA)

I’m hoping this is really an “underpromise and overdeliver” situation. Unless TraCCS is augmented with sensor data from the Space Surveillance Network, it will not outperform (in every sense) the DoD’s capabilities. 5 things contribute to our perception of space object motion: 1) the actual physics and astrodynamics 2) our models of (1) which are flawed 3) the sensor data we obtain 4) our models of (3) which are flawed 5) our choice of method for statistical inference TraCSS, in order to truly be successful, must manage and minimize error and ambiguity from these. Specifically, invest in improving (2) and (4) with multi-fidelity models. The quality of (3) should determine the required fidelity of (2) quantified by its ability to predict (1) like (4) in its ability to predict (3). (5) must be comprised of an ensemble of methods because they each have their strengths and weaknesses. My $0.02
And here's today's second piece, an update from Richard DalBello about how his TraCCS effort is coming. https://lnkd.in/ewyCzZnU

This was a great event. Thank you to the panellists Rebecca Ng, Suman Laudari, Kashmira Dave, PhD, Kate Mitchell, Swapneel Thite, Ph.D. and Stephen Abblitt, PhD for generously sharing their experiences and wisdom as TELedvisor researchers. Some of my key takeaways from the session are: Undertaking research helps us, as TELedvisors, to reflect on our own practice, supports our lifelong learning, is driven by our passion and curiosity, and allows us to tell and share stories and lived experiences in our voice with the community. Tips for those wanting to get started in research include: 1. Look for research opportunities, they are all around you in your daily work as a TELedvisor. 2. Read widely and examine how the articles are structured, methodologies used, writing style and gaps in the research. 3. Collaborating with others is key to success. 4. Gaining ethics approval for research by professional staff can be problematic or not supported in some universities, so look to partner with an academic or undertake research that does not require ethics such as literature reviews, autoethnographies or desktop reviews of public data. 5. Attend the ASCILITE Spring into Research School.
Last Thursday, 25th July, I had the pleasure of being part of the panel for the TELedvisors webinar in "Get into Reserach". The panel discussed how Third Space professionals can get started with research. Some very interesting questions by Sharon Altena. It was not only a very engaging discussion but also a wide spectrum of panel members' experiences, bringing in a variety of perspectives for the audience. The recording is available here for anyone who missed it:https://lnkd.in/gqdJxD2k It was a pleasure meeting Swapneel Thite, Ph.D., Suman Laudari, Rebecca Ng. Great to work with you, Kate Mitchell, and it was great meeting you again, Stephen Abblitt, PhD. I wish I could talk more about the academic-professional divide in a little more depth and its impact on third-space professionals and their sense of identity.
