Nesta sexta 13, recebo no LendaCast as influenciadoras, Fefe e Ju Cassini, para um papo sobre os casos bizarros que já ocorreram em uma sexta-feira 13.

Es gibt zwei große "himmlische" Familien-Clans: die deutsch-baltischen Struves und die italienisch-französischen Cassinis. Der Urvater der Cassinis, Giovanni Domenico, arbeitete an der Sternwarte in Paris und war ein begnadeter Planetenbeobachter. Lorenzen, Dirk www.deutschlandfunk.de, Sternzeit

The world has known many great astronomers, but only a few great astronomy dynasties. One of those celebrates an anniversary tomorrow – the birth of its patriarch 400 years ago. Giovanni Cassini was born in a small Italian village just across the border from Nice, France. Cassini the first, as he’s often called, was the first of four generations of Cassini astronomers. And he definitely was the most productive. He’s best known for his discovery of a gap in the rings of Saturn. It’s named the Cassini Division in his honor. Later, Cassini and his son Jacques theorized that the rings were made of “swarms of tiny satellites” moving at different speeds. They understood the truth many years before it was actually confirmed. More about Cassini and Saturn’s rings tomorrow. Cassini made many other contributions to astronomy. He was among the first to realize that light travels at a limited speed, although he didn’t believe the speed could be calculated. And he developed a law to explain why we always see the same side of the Moon: The Moon takes the same amount of time to orbit Earth as it does to complete one turn on its axis. For most of his career, Cassini was director of Paris Observatory. His descendants kept the job in the family for more than 120 years. Cassini the fourth ended the streak in 1793 – when he left the observatory to write the “stellar” history of this astronomical dynasty. Script by Laura Tuma

E a sua revista digital semanal do bizarro está de volta com a bancada formada por Ju Cassini e Mabê, que noticiam a história de uma mulher que após uma infecção passou a falar com os mortos e uma vidente animal que afirma: os animais contam sabem todos os seus segredos!〰️

Why are Titan's river deltas missing? Planetary astronomer Franck Marchis taps in for Beth Johnson to chat with Brown University's Sam Birch and explore a strange and unexpected mystery on Saturn's largest moon. Using data from NASA's Cassini mission and advanced computer modeling, Birch's team reveals that Titan's shorelines defy Earth-like expectations. Despite Titan's known rivers and seas of liquid methane, the team found a surprising absence of deltas—landforms typically formed when rivers deposit sediment at their mouths. This finding challenges existing geological expectations, as deltas are common on Earth where rivers meet larger bodies of water, and suggests that Titan's geological and climatic processes differ significantly. This discovery opens new avenues for research into Titan's sediment transport mechanisms and its potential to preserve signs of past environmental conditions or even life.

Food is obviously part of our lives every day. We literally need it to survive. But it can also be an art form and serve as creative inspiration. From fifteenth century still life paintings to pop art, food and art have gone hand in hand for a long time. In this episode, we’ll introduce you to three Pacific Northwest artists whose creativity is inseparable from food.    Julie Beeler is an artist and designer based in Trout Lake, Washington. She makes inks, dyes and watercolor paints from the mushrooms she collects in the forest, and she’s the author of the Mushroom Color Atlas.    Portland photographer Isabella Cassini captures food in a number of different ways – from carefully arranged kaleidoscope images to her dynamic “splashes, crashes and smashes” series. That series is all about capturing messy food in motion – raw eggs, bowls of cereal and milk and plates of spaghetti get thrown in front of the camera as Cassini captures the midair collisions and spectacular spills.    Gena Renaud’s exquisite artwork is actually meant to be eaten. She makes wagashi, or Japanese sweets, meant to be enjoyed as part of a traditional tea ceremony. For most of her career, she was a graphic and industrial designer and worked at companies like Nike and Adidas. Now, she spends time on her meticulous, seasonally-inspired wagashi – delicate, pickled cherry blossoms suspended in wobbly agar, a jelly candy made to look like pieces of sea glass and a confection called manju made with sweet lima bean paste.     For more Evergreen episodes and to share your voice with us, visit our showpage.

Phoebe, Saturn's largest irregular moon, was discovered in 1899. Orbiting in the opposite direction of Saturn's rotation, Phoebe is believed to be a captured icy body from the Kuiper Belt. Cassini's 2004 flyby revealed its dark surface and icy layers. Phoebe also contributes to Saturn's Phoebe Ring and Iapetus' two-tone appearance.

Cassini's Mission to Study Saturn's Atmosphere, Ring's and Moons.

Author and space historian Jay Galentine embarks on a thrilling mission to capture the untold story of one of NASA's most influential figures—John Cassani. In his latest book, Born to Explore, Jay takes readers on an exhilarating journey through Cassani's remarkable career, from his unexpected entry into aerospace to his pivotal role in some of NASA's most legendary planetary missions. Cassani wasn't just another project manager—he was a force of nature who refused to accept dead ends, a master of navigating complex challenges, and a mentor who inspired teams to push beyond limits. Jay shares how his original vision for the book transformed when a scheduled 20-minute conversation with Cassani turned into a four-hour deep dive into his personal life, philosophies, and career-defining moments. From the Voyager program to Galileo and Cassini, John's leadership helped shape NASA's approach to planetary exploration, proving that the best missions aren't just about technology—they're about the people who make them happen. Through engaging storytelling, Jay reveals the personal side of Cassani—the man who kept a smile even in the face of budget cuts, mission failures, and relentless obstacles. He also offers insight into Cassani's philosophy of ‘living in a world with no corners,' a mindset that turned potential mission cancellations into historic successes. About Jay Galentine Jay Galentine is an award-winning space historian and author known for bringing humanity to the stories behind robotic space exploration. With a knack for uncovering the lesser-known narratives of NASA's pioneers, Jay's books offer a fresh and compelling perspective on space history. Born to Explore is set to release in late 2025.

Brian Cox and Robin Ince referee as Saturn and Jupiter square up to each other in a planetary face off. Representing team Saturn is space physicist Professor Michele Dougherty, and in the opposite corner is Dr Paul Abel on Team Jupiter. Katherine Parkinson judges this cosmic contest, casting the final vote to decide who will be awarded the coveted Kuiper Belt. It is not all about looks of course, but it is a significant factor in a first impression. Both Saturn and Jupiter score highly in this department, boasting magnificent icy rings and colourful stripes respectively. But what lies beneath their aesthetically pleasing exteriors? How do the planets compare on the inside? The gas giants have been subjects of investigation for many years, with historic missions like Galileo and Cassini uncovering their secrets. But they aren't alone, each planet is surrounded by its own mini solar system of moons, which get space scientists just as excited as their parent planets do. Both Jupiter and Saturn have moons which are hot contenders in the search for extra-terrestrial life and our panel discuss the future plans to explore them.Producer: Melanie Brown Exec Producer: Sasha Feachem Researcher: Olivia Jani

Kim Gordon naît à Los Angeles, en 1953. Après ses études d'art, elle quitte la Californie pour s'installer à New York. Dans les années 1980, Big Apple est le creuset de l'avant-garde artistique. Happée par la no wave, un courant artistique apparu en 1977 dans le quartier du Lower East Side. L'expression mucicale de ce mouvement est ouverte à la dissonance et au bruitiste. Dans ce contexte, Kim Gordon est frappée par sa rencontre avec un guitariste passionné, Thurston Moore. Elle devient bassiste du groupe qu'il forment, Sonic Youth, devenu culte. Ensemble, ils poussent plus loin la déstructuration, la décomplexion musicale. Pour Sonic Youth, la musique, c'est aussi du bruit ! Membre d'un groupe de rock alternatif, Kim Gordon est aussi une artiste visuelle, et bientôt l'icône d'une génération, qui ne veut plaire à personne.CRÉDITSÇa a commencé comme ça est un podcast co-produit par Binge Audio et la Bourse de commerce – Pinault Collection.

La carte de Cassini est célèbre en France car elle représente la première carte géométriquement précise du pays, réalisée au XVIIIe siècle. Elle est considérée comme une révolution dans la cartographie et un chef-d'œuvre scientifique de son époque. Tout commence au début du XVIIIe siècle, sous le règne de Louis XV. Le roi souhaite disposer d'une carte détaillée du royaume pour mieux administrer le territoire, notamment pour la gestion des impôts, des routes et des ressources naturelles. C'est la famille Cassini, une dynastie d'astronomes d'origine italienne, qui est chargée de ce projet colossal. Plus précisément, César-François Cassini, également connu sous le nom de Cassini III, dirige les opérations. Ce qui rend la carte de Cassini unique, c'est la méthode utilisée pour sa réalisation. Pour la première fois, un pays entier est cartographié à l'aide de la triangulation géodésique, une technique qui repose sur des mesures d'angles entre des points remarquables du territoire. Cette méthode, basée sur la rigueur mathématique, permet d'obtenir des résultats d'une précision inédite pour l'époque. Grâce à elle, chaque région de France est mesurée et positionnée avec une exactitude sans précédent. Les travaux s'étendent sur plus de cinquante ans, mobilisant une centaine de cartographes et d'ingénieurs qui parcourent la France pour établir les mesures nécessaires. Le projet aboutit à une collection de 182 cartes à l'échelle 1/86 400, offrant une vision détaillée du territoire français. Ces cartes illustrent non seulement les villes et les villages, mais aussi les reliefs, les forêts, les rivières et les routes, fournissant ainsi un outil précieux pour les administrateurs royaux, les militaires et les commerçants. La carte de Cassini est également précieuse pour les historiens d'aujourd'hui. Elle permet de comparer le paysage français actuel avec celui du XVIIIe siècle et d'étudier l'évolution des territoires, des infrastructures et même des noms de lieux. Elle est souvent consultée pour retrouver des toponymes anciens ou comprendre l'organisation spatiale de la France d'Ancien Régime. En somme, la carte de Cassini est un témoignage exceptionnel du génie scientifique de l'époque des Lumières et reste une référence incontournable pour comprendre l'histoire géographique de la France.

durée : 00:58:39 - Le Cours de l'histoire - par : Xavier Mauduit, Maïwenn Guiziou - Aux 17e et 18e siècles, la famille Cassini donne à la science plusieurs astronomes, cartographes et géodésiens. Depuis l'Observatoire de Paris, génération après génération, ils participent à l'élaboration d'une Carte générale de la France, singulière par sa précision et son étendue. - réalisation : Thomas Beau, Anna Holveck - invités : Denis Savoie Historien des sciences, conseiller scientifique à Universcience et chercheur associé à l'Observatoire de Paris; Nicolas Verdier Historien, directeur de recherche au CNRS et directeur d'étude à l'EHESS

What was it like forging a career in physics as a woman in the 1970s? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome the “Dynamic Duo of Physics” – physicist Dr. Betty Jensen and astrophysicist Dr. Mary Lou West. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, a potential new revelation about Jupiter's Great Red Spot. It seems that the current spot may be only 190 years old rather than 400 years old, and that the first spot described by Cassini in the 1600s may have actually disappeared in the early 1700s. Mary Lou points out that the older spot may not even have been red and gives us a primer on the storms of Jupiter. Next, Betty talks about her love of math and science, her research in fusion energy, and how she forged her own path to becoming the physicist she always knew she would be. Both scientists talk about how “the two body problem” led each of them to stay in the New York area. Mary Lou talks about how she also studied math and physics, but how she ended up becoming an astrophysicist. Then it's time for an audience question for Dr. Jensen and Dr. West: “What kinds of mentoring opportunities were available during your PhD years?” Betty says that while as the lone woman in her area she didn't feel very supported, she did have some really good experiences with professors at Columbia University, including Nobel prize winner in physics Dr. Isadore Isaac Rabi. Mary Lou, who was also at Columbia, tells the story of how she had to do a second thesis after someone published on the subject she'd been working on. She also recounts the wild story of how she used a children's chalkboard to save her PhD thesis defense after student protests disrupted it. Charles brings up the story of Dr. Chien-Shiung Wu, one of the most famous woman physics professors of the period and a member of the Manhattan Project, with whom Betty took a class. In a perhaps unsurprising turn of events, Dr. Wu and the other women on her team who conducted the “Wu Experiment” were ignored by the Nobel Prize committee in favor of the male scientists who predicted the results of her experiment. Throughout the episode, Betty and Mary Lou share some of their most interesting experiences, from riding in the back of a car with Edward Teller, the father of the H-Bomb, to the nearly catastrophic installation of a large telescope at the Harriman Observatory. Chuck talks with Betty and Mary Lou about what it was like to use computers in the punch card era. It turns out, both Betty's dissertation and Mary Lou's thesis were on punch cards! Finally, after the two scientists brag about their families, Chuck asks them for some parting words of advice for future scientists. But we wouldn't dream of speaking for them, so please tune in to the episode for words of wisdom from these two inspirational physicists.   We hope you enjoy this episode of The LIUniverse, and, if you do, please support us on Patreon.   Credits for Images Used in this Episode: Great Red Spot seen by the Juno probe – Kevin Gill, CC BY 2.0 Cassini's drawing of Jupiter's “permanent spot” – Giovanni Domenico Cassini, Public Domain Great Red Spot in the 1880s – Thomas Gwyn Elger Magnetic plasma storms on the Sun – Courtesy of NASA/SDO and the AIA, EVE, and HMI science teams, Public Domain Dr. Isadore Isaac Rabi – Nobel Foundation Dr. Chien-Shiung Wu at work – Smithsonian Institution, no known copyright restrictions Dr. Edward Teller – UC Davis, CC BY 2.0   #TheLIUniverse #CharlesLiu #AllenLiu #SciencePodcast #AstronomyPodcast #Physics #Astrophysics #BettyJensen #MaryLouWest #Jupiter #GreatRedSpot #MagneticPlasmaStorms #JovianStorms #SolarStorms #Cassini #NobelPrize #IsadoreIsaacRabi #ChienShiungWu #EdwardTeller #ManhattanProject #HarrimanObservatory #ColumbiaUniversity #TwoBodyProblem

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 146*Supernova's Potential to End the Dark Matter SearchAstronomers are eagerly awaiting a nearby supernova that could finally solve the mystery of dark matter. A new study suggests that axions, hypothetical particles, could be discovered within seconds of a supernova's gamma-ray burst. The Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope might detect these gamma rays, offering insights into the mass of QCD axions. However, the rarity of such supernovae and the telescope's limited field of view pose challenges. Researchers are considering launching a fleet of gamma-ray telescopes, named GALAX, to ensure comprehensive coverage.*Magnetic Tornadoes at Jupiter's PolesA recent study reveals that Jupiter's poles are home to magnetic tornadoes that generate Earth-sized concentrations of hydrocarbon haze. These phenomena, visible only in ultraviolet light, are linked to the planet's strong magnetic fields. The findings, based on Hubble Space Telescope images, shed light on the unique atmospheric dynamics of Jupiter, contrasting with Earth's auroral processes.*Arrival of the World's Biggest Digital Camera at NASANASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre has received the Wide Field Instrument, the largest digital camera ever built, for the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. This advanced camera will offer an unprecedented panoramic view of the universe, aiding in the study of dark energy, dark matter, and exoplanets. Scheduled for launch in 2027, Roman's capabilities will surpass those of current Space telescopes.The Science RobertA new study links prolonged sedentary behaviour with increased heart disease risk, even among active individuals. Research highlights the crucial ecological role of large sharks, threatened by overfishing and habitat loss. Palaeontologists use dinosaur faeces to trace the evolutionary rise of dinosaurs. Advances in lithium battery technology promise safer and longer-lasting power sources, potentially revolutionising energy storage.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com

NASA has made an incredible discovery on one of Saturn's moons, and it could change everything we know about space! Enceladus, a tiny icy moon, might actually have the right conditions for life. Scientists found that it's hiding a salty ocean under its icy shell, and there are even geysers shooting water into space!

On this week's episode, Tariq and I speak with Scott Tibbitts, a dynamic and engaging space entrepreneur who spun $7 of hardware store parts into a 150-person, multimillion-dollar space company making tech for NASA that allowed deep space probes, starting with the Cassini mission to Saturn, to operate in the harsh environment of the outer solar system. Scott's tiny actuator replaced expensive, failure-prone explosive squibs with a device that could be tested (you can't really test something that goes *bang*), cycled, and tried again if it didn't work the first time. And it all started with his work at a water heater company and a few dozen cold calls that ended with one to NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab.

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 140*Revisiting the Milky Way's Black Hole ImageA new study questions the accuracy of the first-ever image of Sagittarius A, the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way. Researchers suggest the image may not accurately represent its appearance, proposing a more elongated accretion disc instead of the ring-like structure previously released by the Event Horizon Telescope.*Methane in Titan's CrustData from NASA's Cassini spacecraft indicates that Saturn's moon Titan may have a methane-rich crust up to 10 kilometres thick. This insulating layer could explain Titan's shallow impact craters and its methane-rich atmosphere, providing insights into its unique geological and atmospheric dynamics.*Updates on Earth's Ozone HoleNASA reports that the annual ozone hole over Antarctica was smaller this year, ranking as the seventh smallest since recovery efforts began. The ozone layer is on track to fully recover by 2066, thanks to international agreements curbing ozone-depleting chemicals.The Science ReportAntarctic ice core samples suggest Earth has already surpassed a 1.5°C global temperature rise due to human-induced climate change.

Nous sommes aujourd'hui avec Graffi Rathamohan, co-fondatrice du groupe PNY. Véritable institution du burger haut de gamme, PNY connaît tous les succès à Paris puis en France depuis plus d'une décennie. Pour co-animer ce nouvel épisode de Business of Bouffe, Philibert est accompagné d'Élisa Gautier, fondatrice du restaurant Kiosk à Paris.À travers ce podcast, nous cherchons à comprendre les raisons de la réussite de PNY, et surtout comment Graffi et son associé ont créé un modèle qui conjugue aussi bien qualité, volume et rentabilité.Pour cela, on prend évidemment le temps de revenir sur le parcours et les inspirations de Graffi : de son enfance modeste et studieuse à la genèse du projet PNY. Puis, Graffi nous raconte les ouvertures des premiers restaurants et leur succès immédiat. Le public et les critiques sont unanimes. L'exigeant journaliste culinaire François-Régis Gaudry et ses amis leur ont même décerné le titre de “Meilleur Burger de Paris” !On s'attarde ensuite sur les évolutions récentes du groupe qui compte désormais 15 restaurants partout en France. Boosté par de belles levées de fonds et un actionnariat solide, le groupe PNY affiche aujourd'hui de grandes ambitions.Ce podcast a été enregistré avec la participation exceptionnelle de Céline Chung, François-Régis Gaudry, Tigrane Seydoux et Édouard de Cassini.

Neste Halloween, recebemos ninguém menos que Ju Cassini, do podcast Passarinheiro, Sete Pele e São Cipriano! Ou será que é Assustador, Bizarro e Misterioso?

Each year for a decade, the Cassini team produced a tongue-in-cheek caricature of “spooky Saturn.”

Massive geysers on Enceladus spew water vapor and ice particles hundreds of miles into space.

Exopolitics Today Week in Review with Dr Michael Salla – Sept 21, 2024  Topics Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet will testify before the House Oversight Committee on UAP/UFOs in November. Artistic illustration of data sent by the Cassini spacecraft flyby of Saturn showing its rings is very similar to what JP has described in his latest update Rescuing Children from Deep Underground Military Bases: Interview with Gene Decode Lue Elizondo responds to Dr. Steven Greer criticisms by saying where are the whistleblowers that Greer is referring to? In her latest Star Nations news, Elena Danaan relays an informative message from Oona, an Altean ET, about the pulse sound detected from the Starliner spacecraft while docked at the ISS. Ross Coulthart and Lue Elizondo discuss the possibility of finding a buried 747 under ancient structures built. over them Next Monthly Live Briefing on Oct 5 Guest interview on Coast to Coast AM discussing Book 3 in the US Army Insider Missions series The legacy media's support of Lue Elizondo is having a huge red pill effect on UFO & NHI awareness as a Daily Show viewer reports. Former Astronaut, US Navy pilot, and current US Senator Mark Kelly says he hasn't encountered ET life while in space, and doesn't know what UFOs are. JP's Out! - Honorable Discharge, Visit to Veterans Affairs and Future Covert Missions - Update #37 A subcommittee of the US Senate Armed Services Committee is going to hold a UFO hearing after the November 2024 elections Terrance Howard's idea that humans living underground naturally evolve into Gray ET-like entities is similar to what Gray ETs have told abductees that they are us from the future wanting to restore their genetics I received an update from Ruezo Zanrico (pseudonym) about anomalous military ship activity in the region of the Atlantic Ocean where a submerged space ark can be found according to a recently retired Army serviceman Here's a very informative analysis of data showing a link between the JFK Assassination and UFOs/SSPs.  Twitter Feed: https://twitter.com/michaelsalla --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/exopoliticstoday/support

Join us for SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 89, where we explore the latest cosmic events and advancements in space exploration.- Titan's Tiny Waves: Astronomers have determined that the seas of Saturn's largest moon, Titan, exhibit very tiny waves, only a few millimetres high. The findings, based on data from the Cassini spacecraft, reveal tidal currents and provide fresh insights into Titan's liquid hydrocarbon seas.- Moon Caves as Future Lunar Dwellings: New research suggests that underground cave networks on the Moon could offer safe dwellings for future astronauts. Detected through NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, these caverns could provide shelter from radiation and extreme temperatures.- Increased Fire Risk on Space Missions: A new study warns of an increased risk of fire on future long-distance interplanetary space missions. The unique conditions of microgravity and lower ambient air pressure could make fires spread more quickly and burn more intensely, posing significant dangers for space travellers.- 00:00:00 - New research shows moon caves could provide future lunar dwellings for astronauts- 00:00:47 - Scientists find evidence of tidal currents in seas of Saturn's largest moon Titan- 00:07:57 - Astronomers find evidence of potentially accessible underground cave networks on the moon- 00:10:31 - New research warns fires will provide increased risk for space travellers on future missions- 00:15:31 - New study claims some bugs could be linked with autism spectrum disorder- 00:18:06 - Apple's new vision pro augmented goggles have grabbed heaps of attentionFollow our cosmic conversations on X @stuartgary, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.

Just like magic, big “islands” appear to come and go on the lakes and seas of Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. They first showed up in radar images snapped 10 years ago by the Cassini spacecraft. And planetary scientists have been trying to explain them ever since. Titan is bigger than the planet Mercury. It has a cold, thick atmosphere. Hydrocarbons at the top of the atmosphere create an orange haze — like the smog that blankets many cities. Methane and ethane form clouds. They also fill the lakes and seas. In most of Cassini’s images, these bodies of liquid looked dark and calm — any waves would be no more than a fraction of an inch high. But occasionally, a bright patch would appear — like an island suddenly rising from the depths. There are several possible explanations: big waves, patches of nitrogen bubbles, and others. And a study this year suggested sheets of ice. In this scenario, particles would drop from the haze layer, forming ice grains along the way. The grains could collect in sheets along the shore. The ice would be porous, like a sponge or a honeycomb. A sheet might break away and float into a lake or sea. Eventually, though, the spaces would fill up, the ice would sink, and the island would vanish — just like magic. Look for Saturn near our own moon the next few mornings. It’ll stand well to the left of the Moon at dawn tomorrow, but much closer to the Moon on Thursday. Script by Damond Benningfield
