Dear #space community. The deadline for submitting your proposal at the next #IAC2021 in Dubai is approaching (28Feb2021)!
Submit your Abstracts to be part of the IAC 2021 Technical Programme!
If you have a #SmallSat / #CubeSat topic feel invited to our #IAASmallSat symposium. Go to www.iafastro.org now!
Hey #uvsqsat #amsatf, we just received your cubesat with our #ardnnews groundstation w/ an #esa #limesdrmini #LimeMicro here in #Jena. Next step for me: Uploading *wav to #googledrive for you here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mgc54Yws7ZSfb5-y5zUHxtQSs2gWskAg?usp=sharing … and me trying to decode it with your decoder. #transporter1
Shooting this #AirbusSpace #Highlights 2020 video directly after tough+successful months of CDR & our (@blagica_13❤️) wedding was fun. And now it's even public on #JenaOptronik. Spoiler: It's about #CyberSpaceIAC: instagram.com/p/CJZHXAWqU8B/ Can't wait for 2021 #withAirbus! #HokeDirk
@andreashornig
Now #CalibrateSDR directly scans all #DABplus blocks with #rtlsdr dongles.
Hey internet and @LimeMicro @LimeSDR_org, how do I use the #LimeSDRMini with #Python? Any hint for me, because I did not find something yet. A link to an example/tutorial would be nice 😀
#XMas2020 gift: How to calibrate your #SDR aka what’s my frequency?
Using #dabplus for frequency correcting my #NOAASatellites experiment.
Results:
#LimeSDRMini #LimeMicro 0.15ppm (@esa@twitter.com backed),
#RTLSDR #rtlsdrblog 0.9ppm,
other RTLSDRs >37ppm.

Thank you madame #AnneHidalgo, Maire de
#Paris, for the nice invite to #IAC2022 #iafastro in your lovely city! My @blagica_13@twitter.com & me will be there for sure for the biggest #space congress and for your city and people! We & the team AerospaceResearch.net are looking forward to it.
Á bientôt!
#Hacktoberfest 2020 is go! First pull-request is submited, three more to go!
Merged a branch in our OrbitDeterminator #github repo on AerospaceResearch.net that I worked on since May. Next PR will be the new #satellite orbit determination code for our #CyberSpaceIAC2020 paper.
I didn‘t know that #WorldRangerDay exists. But now I know & I want to say thank you to all people working at @YosemiteNPS@twitter.com. You do a great job & I enjoyed my time there. Can‘t wait to take my @blagica_13@twitter.com w/ me next time to this paradise on Earth. @YoseConservancy@twitter.com @NatlParkService@twitter.com
I arrived exactly with sunset at my home village of #Settrup. I like late sunsets in Summer. So that reminded me to check for for the sunset times at other places I had lived (Bremen, Stuttgart, Jena).
So earth‘s rotation and the tilted axis gives Settrup the lead here wrt long bright days! :D
But fear not, other locations, in Winter we have late sunrises and early sunsets. So we also like it dark. :)
How is your sunset in your timezone and location? 😃
So currently I do not know what my @foldingathome@twitter.com is crunching, but it also does not matter. The good cause feels good. So, 180000 point since I started #foldingathome for the fight against #covid19 in March 2020 :). Feels really good.
Can a @GoPro@twitter.com camera be used to optically track #satellites? I have one, I just went outside & checked. You can read more here aerospaceresearch.net/?page_id=1874. #SpoilerAlert: It worked. Still not perfect, so I would love to #getfeedback! When improved, I'll put it to @hackadayio@twitter.com
The little computer that could... help fight #covid19! The ground station is still folding for @foldingathome@twitter.com and doing its part during the #coronavirus crisis. Thanks @WUSTL@twitter.com to have such a great biomedical research project!
Okay, when I can't travel due to #coronavirus, at least I can visit my favourite city #SanFrancisco in books! This time "Orbital Mechanics for Engineering Students" @ElsevierConnect. I just want to locate #Venus in the nightsky. So fitting for the #space tech center in the world!
Thx @SpringerNature for your free access initiative during #Coronavirus! I updated my "Astronautics: The Physics of Space Flight" book by Ulrich Walter @TU_Muenchen from @WileyVCH version, I found in the @elibbremen lib when I was @HSBremen, to the new one https://www.springernature.com/gp/librarians/news-events/all-news-articles/industry-news-initiatives/free-access-to-textbooks-for-institutions-affected-by-coronaviru/17855960
#Starlink satellites passing over #Jena with one flaring really brightly. Still trying to find good setting for my @Gopro (Nightmode, ISO200, 15secs, linear). Preparing some #Astrophotography workflow with nova.Astrometry.net for @ARDNnews with it... (2020-04-19T20:28:25UTC)
Wow! The #SpaceX #Starlink train photographed from the @Space_Station. Now I call that a room with a view, #elonmusk. The satellites are nicely pearling up. I did not expect it to see them so clearly from the #ISS. But here they are! #Astromaterials #NASA https://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/SearchPhotos/photo.pl?mission=ISS062&roll=E&frame=148365
#HelpWanted. So, what algo for detecting satellites in #astrophotos? I took my new @Gopro out for a test shot during the #Easter2020 Saturday. Caught some #StarLink sats, and also parts of the bright spring full moon. I'm trying to find a robust algorithm to find faint streaks.
My Mom is awesome. She is learning how „to use the Internet“. And because of #coronavirus, she sends us virtual #Kartoffelpuffer (potato pancakes, latkes) via chat for our traditional #GoodFriday meal. Even though we are in #Jena, #Vinica & #Settrup, still feels like home! ☺️
