Talk Python To Me - Python conversations for passionate developers
Space science is one of the few sciences that can spark wonder and imagining in almost anyone. It also happens to be the domain of Python with many missions, telescopes, and analysis happening with Python playing a major role. On this episode we have Thomas Albin who has worked on several recent space missions. He has created a delightful YouTube channel called Space Science with Python. It's approachable and yet concrete and realistic. We are going to dive into some of his videos and see how Python can model things like astroid fly-bys and render comets in 3D.

(1:55) - Dragonfly on Titan: Dragonfly is the sequel to the Cassini mission from 1997 whose goal was to study the moon of planet Saturn; Titan. Titan's earth-like features - like it's atmosphere - has piqued the interest of researchers for years. We hope to better understand the origins of our planet in addition to the formation of biological beings by studying this moon. (8:13) - Machine Learning Discovers New Sequence For Drug Delivery: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a disease that takes a severe toll on the patients that are impacted leading to an average life expectancy of ~26 years. So, when Spectra Therapeutics announced in 2019 that they had developed a drug capable of addressing the faulty proteins the world rejoiced; however, the proposed drug suffers from weak cell membrane penetration which is essential for this treatment technique and that is where this MIT research comes into play. This group has developed a model to analyze experimental data about cell penetrating peptides and formulate the best possible solutions for scientists to test with.(16:30) - NeckFace: Non-verbal cues like our facial features can tell people a lot about how we feel but wouldn't it be great if we could observe those subconscious cues as well? That is one of the primary goals of NeckFace which has been developed by researchers at Cornell University to continuously monitor and record our facial expressions using a neck brace or a necklace. The device can either be used to teleconference while in motion or record facial data to analyze mood changes throughout the day which can be valuable for gauging mental health.
Saturn's stunning rings make it the easiest planet to recognize, but it still has secrets! From ancient cultures that watched the skies, to modern scientists who send machines into space, humans are passionately curious about the gas giant. What is Saturn? Is there something more going on with this unusual planet. From hexagonal storms to possible spacecraft sitings within the rings what is the role of this gigantically beautiful planet. I was sent an anonymous letter which I read that describes the saturn moon matrix and its possible role in controlling the holographic matrix of the planet earth. Is it true and how do we respond to this spiritually?

Welcome to Titan, the biggest moon of Saturn, and the only known cosmic body other than Earth, that we know for certain has actual lakes and seas on its surface. But that isn't the only reason that makes this frozen moon such an interesting and fascinating place. On this episode, our crew leave the comfort and warmth of our ship, The Tardigrade, to explore the surface of Titan. Their mission is to report back on the curiosities and mysteries of this hazy extraterrestrial landscape. A landscape which is, on the one hand, very familiar, yet on the other hand, truly alien to us. Things to Learn What does a hydrocarbon ocean look like? What's so weird about the dunes on Titan? What on Titan is “electric snow” and “electric sand”!? What's the story behind the “magic islands” in Titan's seas? And what might they be? What is a cryovolcano, and why might they exist on Titan? Could life feasibly exist way out here? Task Where would you like to see The Tardigrade visit and explore in a future mission, and why? Get in touch and tell us all about it!

Astrophiz 43 – Cassini’s Legacy. As one of 30 very lucky Astrogeeks, Andrew P Street was a guest of the Canberra Deep Space Communications Complex on Friday 15 September 2017 to witness first hand the #GrandFinale of the astonishing 20 year Cassini Mission to Saturn. In this episode: With permission, we read Andrew P Street’s great article published in the Guardian the next day. Then Dr Ian Musgrave and I discuss my awed impressions of this amazing night at Tidbinbilla CDSCC as a guest of CSIRO/NASA, and my new understanding of the importance and capabilities of the 3 NASA/JPL Deep Space Network earth stations at Goldstone USA, Madrid Spain and Tidbinbilla Australia. Ian recounts some of Cassini’s iconic achievements. For observers and astrophotographers, Ian continues with ‘What’s Up Doc’ and tells us when, where and what to look for in morning and evening skies. In Ian’s Tangent, Ian helps us understand why the end of the Cassini Mission was such an emotional event compared with other famous missions. For Aurora Hunters, we include the spooky sounds of Saturn’s aurorae, as captured by Cassini. In the news: 1. In many previous episodes we have talked about how the sheer enormity of radio telescope data caches presents challenges for effective analysis. Today we quote from a review of the ‘ Big Data Boom’ in Nature Astronomy by Professor Ray Norris, School of Computing, Engineering, & Maths, Western Sydney University. 2. We report on the May 2018 launch of the NASA InSight Mission to Mars 3. A game-changing discovery by a Japanese team reveals Black Hole evolution.

The Cassini mission to Saturn launched 20 years ago, on October 15, 1997. It took seven years to reach Saturn, and has been orbiting and intensely studying Saturn ever since...until last week when the mission ended in a final dive into Saturn’s atmosphere. The mission studied Saturn, its famous rings, and its many moons using a suite of instruments that observed a broad range of wavelengths from ultraviolet, to visible, infrared, and radio as well as examining dust, charged particles, and magnetic fields. It also delivered the Huygens probe that descended through the atmosphere of Saturn's giant moon, Titan. In this edition of How on earth, we have two scientists from the Cassini mission team. Dr. Larry Esposito is a Professor at the Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences department at the University of Colorado at Boulder and member of the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at CU. Dr. Carly Howett is a planetary scientist and manager at the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder. They share with us some of the science from Cassini-Huygens and experiences working on such a long-term and successful space mission.

Star*Quest Radio is a space podcast produced in collaboration with the Fort Wayne Astronomical Society, that aims to inspire people to look up at their local night-sky with a new understanding. This first episode is being released the night before Cassini takes its final plunge into Saturn's surface, so we decided to use it to deliver an overview of Cassini's mission. We talk to Mark Anderson, Director of the Star*Quest Observatory at the Fort Wayne Astronomical Society, in order to get an update on the goings on of Fort Wayne's Star*Quest Observatory, and what we might expect to see in the next month when we gaze up into our local night sky.

The Tardigrade is on its way to Titan, the biggest moon of Saturn. We're about to break through its hazy orange atmosphere and land on its surface. Our ship won't be the first human-built device to land on Titan though. The Huygens probe made this place its home back in 2005, when it was dropped off here by the Cassini spacecraft. The Cassini-Huygens mission has taught us so much about this fascinating region of the outer solar system over the last 20 years. Now we want to take you to Titan so you can experience it for yourself. So suit up and strap in. It's nearly time to land on this fascinating landscape of hydrocarbon oceans, and icy mountains. And we'll be joined over our radio comms interface by Alexander Hayes, an assistant professor at Cornell Universty in the Astronomy department. He's part of the Cassini Mission to Saturn research team, so Titan is basically his second home. We're in good hands! Things to Learn Perspective - how far away from the sun is Titan? What's the story behind the Cassini-Huygens mission? What did scientists expect to find on Titan? Were they right? What does it look and feel like on Titan? What kind of suit will you need to explore Titan? How does sound work on Titan? Why are regions and features on Titan named after places from Lord of the Rings, and Dune? Who decides on these names? Tasks Enjoying the journey so far? We'd love it if you could drop us a wee five-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts, or your podcast app of choice.

Hey, Du, Ja, Du! Willst du einen Raumfahrtpodcast hören? PSSST! Nicht so laut. Schau mal, diese Folge leuchtet sogar im dunkeln. Wir reden diesmal über die letzten Monate der Cassini-Mission und erklären euch, wie man Sonden wie Cassini in den tiefen des Alls mit Hilfe von sogenannten Radioisotopen-Batterien am Leben erhält. Ganz geheim sind diesmal diverse Raketenstarts und -landungen. Das geheim AirForce Spaceshuttle X37-B ist nach mehr als zwei Jahren im All gelandet. SpaceX durfte das erste Mal einen geheimen Spionagesatelliten ins All bringen und die Inder haben einen supergeheimen Kommunikationssatelliten gestartet. Weniger geheim, aber dafür sehr erfreulich war der Start einer Ariane 6 aus dem nicht mehr bestreikten Kourou und enttäuschend war der Start der Vector Space Systems Mogelpackung. Zum Schluß reden wir noch über die Pläne der NASA konkret eine Raumstation als Portal zum Mars zu bauen und geben euch noch ein paar Lesetipps. Wenn ihr Fragen, Hinweise oder Kritik zu dieser oder anderen Folgen habt, dann freuen wir uns sehr, wenn ihr diese in die Kommentare unter dem Blogpost dieser Sendung oder bei Facebook oder Twitter schreibt.

Our guest during for the discussion of the end of the Cassini Mission is comedian Mary Beth Barone. She once watched Interstellar everyday for a few months. Also we discuss how the Kendall Jenner Pepsi ad would've been better. Check out Mary Beth Barone @marybethbarone and her podcast 'Mildly Offensive'
From the magnificent ice eruptions of one of its moons to the changing colours of the jet-stream, astronomer Fred Watson takes us on a trip to Saturn.
Imagine this. You come in to work one day and learn you’re being investigated for harassment. Why? Because you shared a DVD with a co-worker about the science of intelligent design. Worse still, your boss fires you because you dared to share your beliefs. Sound unbelievable? Well, that’s exactly what happened to David Coppedge. For 14 years, David F. Coppedge worked at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for NASA’s most ambitious interplanetary mission, the Cassini Mission to Saturn. For most of that time, he was Team Lead System Administrator, responsible for 15 networks and 200+ computers across America and Europe. He received high ratings for his work, until he was reprimanded for sharing his beliefs. He was ultimately fired. But David Coppedge decided to fight back and took his case to court. Tune in to Educate For Life to listen in to this discussion between Kevin Conover and guest David Coppedge. David Coppedge will take you through what happened in his case and present some stunning evidence that backs up his belief in intelligent design. He continues to write science news from a biblical world view which you can follow at crev.info. To learn more about David Coppedge and his work, visit davidcoppedge.com. This episode first aired on September 3rd, 2016. We make video lessons to raise up confident Christians: https://educateforlife.org/
