Carnival Of Space Number 364
Welcome to the 364th edition of the Carnival of Space. We have a lot of great articles for you this week with more being added all the time. If you missed last week’s edition, you can check it over at the Chandra X-Ray Observatory’s web site.
We start this week off with an article from the Urban Astronomer. From the article:
Next up, Universe Today has a trio of great articles for us to peruse. They cover everything from Mars, to Rosetta to the Dream chaser.
After our big trio, we follow up with a pair of articles from last week’s Carnival host, Chandra X-Ray Observatory:
Reflections on Chandra’s 15th anniversary from former director Harvey Tananbaum.
In addition to the two articles from Chandra, they are also working with Smithsonian researchers to understand how color affects perception & aesthetic appreciation of astronomy images. They could use your help by taking a 10 minute survey.
Here. There. Everywhere. takes their exhibit to Sioux City, Iowa. The following write up covers what they did while visiting the city recognized as one of the best places to live.
Here, There & Everywhere Exhibit visited Sioux City, Iowa in April 2014
The article pairs just keep on coming! This next set is from CosmoQuest. The first one takes a look at the Dawn spacecraft data. That’s followed up with a look at the Night Sky Network.
Dawn data is used to take a peek at Vesta’s interior, and its structure continues to surprise us.
Our final pair of articles comes from that wonder of the internet, io9.com. They take a look at what NASA does to compete at Comic Con. They also take a look at the ISEE crowd sourced science space mission.
ISEE-3 is now the first crowd funded, crowd sourced, citizen science space mission.
Coming into the home stretch we have Pam Hoffman of Everyday Spacer explaining the reasoning behind their Meetups:
We finish this weeks Carnival with a Photos To Space look at what happens when movies and science collide.
That’s it for the Carnival this week. Tune in next week when the AARTScope Blog will be hosting. Until then keep you eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground. Unless you want to be an astronaut. Astronauts are COOL! Just saying.
Dream.
