We wish you well, fellow Sentinel! With a gentle push, #Ariane6 has released the Copernicus Sentinel-1D satellite to orbit where it will begin its amazing life of scientific discoveries. Keep in touch!

Gif sequence from stills, static camera in rotating Earth frame.
Lunar eclipse 2025-09-07, end of Earth's shadow moving off disk.

This is exactly why my multiexposure of the eclipse last night still had an overlap — since I had completely neglected lunar motion around Earth in a 128 sec gap estimate. Mun moves on orbit 3% the length of its body-dia in the meantime. Andrew's pic is brilliant, just wonder why shadow static(?)

Or /iow: waiting longer btw the Moon shots makes the disk 'move' further to the up right b/c camera on Earth has rotated further (24h/day), but at the same time the Mun also had a slight shift to the left on its 28d-journey around Earth. Hence, relative rotation appears 3-4% slower than 2π/24h. 2/2

Nerd-fact: I had roughly estimated from lunar diameter, distance, +Earth rotation that 130s would be just enough to get clear lunar 'disks':
128s=atan(dia/dist)/(2π/24h).
But I neglected lunar counter rotation around Earth, which adds a few seconds to the bill. That's why the disks overlap a bit 1/2

Lunar eclipse tonight, S of Bonn, Germany. Best part was to see how many parents with children came out and patiently waited to observe!

Cooking with 15" etopo22 and @wmo-global.bsky.social / GRDC vectors for @crc1502-detect.bsky.social . Rivers truly are lifelines of the water cycle.

Critical mission milestone achieved for this one, 12m reflector unfurled:

So you are saying the enforced d(TWS)/dt — instead of ET + Q — temporarily balances a grand part of the P? 🤭
(rather runoff/surface flow than Q...)

Good job.

Officially yes :-|
But I can still load projects 🤷

What to do when trains don't go to the DETECT retreat? Cycle! 35 km through the beautiful Rhine valley.

Do the groundtracks include model dynamics, d(mean anomaly)/dt, or are they based on the latest TLE? (Rhetorical Q: would we see the difference on such a map?)
