Facebook reminded me today how my ex dragged me into playing Farmville with her and then was complaining that I was not very productive there.

But hey, I had a large radiotelescope array on my farm! I had more important things to do!

Cette photographie est attribuée à Roger Ressmeyer : il s'agit du radiotélescope Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). Ce courrier du CNRS de 1991 a certainement :-) influencé le groupe #DireStraits pour la pochette de l'album live "On the Night", paru en 1993, et notamment enregistrée

Cette image (*) illustre également la pochette d'un groupe de musique. Question 1) Lequel ? 2) Quelle chanson vous fait penser aux thèmes du #GRETSI ? (* couverture du dossier scientifique du courrier du CNRS de 1991, Signaux et images. Le traitement du signal et de l'image)
Le courrier du CNRS, juin 1991. Dossiers scientifiques. Signaux et images. Le traitement du signal et de l'image. Une discipline a pour ambition de maintenir la continuité de la chaîne qui traite l'information, depuis l'acquisition des signaux jusqu'à leur interprétation. Une clé pour la médecine, les télécommunications, la robotique, l'acoustique, l'astrophysique...

C'est en effet le Very Large Array radiotelescope (VLA), photo de Roger Ressmeyer. Merci, ça me donne une idée de billet (même si je ne suis pas conquis par ce "live" de Dire Straits)

Went to see NASA’s Goldstone array of radio telescopes last week. Yeah, I’m still flabbergasted at how totally cool they are. #spacegeek #goldstonearray #radiotelescope
Large radio telescope “Mars”, part of the Goldstone array in the middle of Fort Irwin in the desert, just above Barstow California. I’m holding my t-shirt that I got while at the Very Large Array in New Mexico.

This farm obviously gets very poor TV reception 😅 #satellitedish #observatory #radiotelescope #science #technology #sky #clouds #nature #engineering #telecommunications #astronomy #bird #industrial #rural #uk #smartphonephotography #photography
A large satellite dish stands prominently beneath a dramatic, cloudy sky, partially obscured by lush green trees in the foreground. To the right of the dish, two dark, cylindrical industrial silos are visible. A single bird flies high in the sky, positioned above the satellite dish. The overall mood is slightly moody due to the heavy clouds, but also suggests a sense of awe and scientific endeavour.

Neige exceptionnelle dans l’Atacama : le radiotélescope ALMA contraint de passer en « mode survie »

Neige exceptionnelle dans l’Atacama : le radiotélescope ALMA contraint de passer en « mode survie »
Les opérations de l’Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), le radiotélescope le plus puissant au monde, sont suspendues depuis jeudi en raison de rares chutes de neige dans la région. La tempête s’est produite à basse altitude, recouvrant une grande partie du désert d’Atacama d’une fine couche de neige, ce qui est inhabituel pour une région aussi aride. Bien que le lien ne soit pas encore tout à fait établi, ce type d’événement pourrait devenir plus fréquent à l’avenir en raison du changement climatique.

À cause de la difficulté à les observer, seuls les disques protoplanétaires (DP) géants avaient été étudiés jusqu'ici.

Grâce au radiotélescope ALMA, il apparaît qu'en large majorité, les DP sont petits, avec des conséquences sur la formation des exoplanètes.

Image, par le réseau de radiotélescopes ALMA, de 73 disques protoplanétaire autour de jeunes étoiles. Ces disques sont bien plus petits que ceux étudiés jusqu'ici.

Not what you expect to see blocking the highway! The #NationalRadioAstronomyObservatory #VeryLargeArray(VLA)RadioTelescope facility, 50 miles west of #Socorro,NewMexico. #Astronomy #RadioAstronomy #VeryLargeArray #VLA #RadioTelescope See Alt Text.
We happened to encounter this event on a road trip in April 2024. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: The Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) is a centimeter-wavelength radio astronomy observatory in the southwestern United States built in the 1970s. It lies in central New Mexico on the Plains of San Agustin, between the towns of Magdalena and Datil, approximately 50 miles (80 km) west of Socorro. The VLA comprises twenty-eight 25-meter radio telescopes (twenty-seven of which are operational while one is always rotating through maintenance) deployed in a Y-shaped array and all the equipment, instrumentation, and computing power to function as an interferometer. Each of the massive telescopes is mounted on double parallel railroad tracks, so the radius and density of the array can be transformed to adjust the balance between its angular resolution and its surface brightness sensitivity. Astronomers using the VLA have made key observations of black holes and protoplanetary disks around young stars, discovered magnetic filaments and traced complex gas motions at the Milky Way's center, probed the Universe's cosmological parameters, and provided new knowledge about the physical mechanisms that produce radio emission. The VLA stands at an elevation of 6,970 feet (2,120 m) above sea level. It is a component of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO). The NRAO is a facility of the National Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc. We happened to encounter this event on a road trip in April 2024.

now the event has happened, i can share my secret santa, a (semi-accurate) scale model of the Lovell space telescope, as a model kit. I put probably too much work into this, and i'm really happy with how it has turned out.
an open cardboard box viewed top-down, inside the box you can see a large white disc,surrounded by tissue paper and glimpses of small white parts the front of a cardboard box, held up by a hand. the box has a large label on it saying "build your own Lovell space Telescope" there is a stylised illustration of a radiotelescope pointing to the night sky. there is a cushion in the background that says HONK on it a mostly completed build of the model. it is a completely white plastic model of a radiotelescope viewed from above in the front. a large white dish is attached with intricate lattices to 2 towers. the legs of the towers are sat into a circular track that allows it to rotate. the dish is pointing up and to the right, the antenna is missing

What is one of your comfort movies?🎥 🖤
A sheep stands on top of a TV set showing the first moon landing. Other sheep surround it. In the background is a large radiotelescope dish in the Australian countryside. The picture is an advertisement for 'The Dish' movie.

This is our best image of the Quetzalpetlatl corona that is 'real'
This composite image was created by inserting approximately 70 orbits of Magellan data into an image obtained at the Arecibo, Puerto Rico radiotelescope and shows a geologically complex region in the southern hemisphere of Venus. The region is centered on 65 degrees south, 359 degrees east and is about 1500 x 1500 km (900 x 900 miles) in extent. The large oval feature in the lower half of the image is Quetzalpetlatl Corona, approximately 700 km (420 miles) in diameter. Coronae are circular to oval regions defined by an annulus of ridges and are centers for tectonic and volcanic activity. Tectonic activity is largely observed in a relatively narrow rim region, which in this image is defined by a complex lineated terrain that surrounds much of the corona. Bright and dark volcanic flows are seen throughout the corona and surrounding terrain. Small shield volcanoes, 1-20 km (0.6-12 miles) in diameter, are seen near the southern limit of the Magellan data image. Narrow linear troughs (seen
