« Tiangong 1 », en vol incontrôlé depuis 2016, a fait son retour dans l’atmosphère un peu plus tôt que prévu : à 2 h 15 (heure de Paris) au-dessus du Pacifique Sud.

La station spatiale chinoise Tiangong 1 a été « globalement détruite » lors de son entrée dans l’atmosphère, lundi 2 avril, autour de 2 h 15 (heure de Paris) au-dessus du Pacifique Sud, a annoncé le China Manned Space Engineering Office (CMSEO), le bureau chinois chargé de la conception des vols spatiaux.

L’engin, en vol incontrôlé depuis 2016, a fait son retour dans l’atmosphère un peu plus tôt que prévu : le CMSEO avait annoncé auparavant que le retour sur la Terre s’effectuerait autour de 2 h 42, ce qui l’aurait situé au-dessus de l’Atlantique Sud, au large des côtes brésiliennes.

« La plupart des équipements ont été détruits lors de la phase de rentrée dans l’atmosphère », a assuré le CMSEO dans un communiqué.

The World Geo-Graphical #Atlas

#Herbert_Bayer (5 Apr 1900 – 30 Sep 1985) began his career studying archirecture under Georg Schmidthammer and later painting at the Darmstadt Artists’ Colony. Inspired by Walter #Gropius’ #Bauhaus manifesto, he enrolled in the Weimar Bauhaus and studied painting under Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee and László Moholy-Nagy. After passing his journeymans exam Gropius appointed him as the junior master of the newly-created typography workshop. Bayer spent three years on faculity at Dessau before starting his own design firm in Berlin.

Ces recherches ont commencé en mars 2011, avec un premier programme, franco-allemand, sur « politique et corruption : pratiques de la faveur et débats publics aux XIXe et XXe siècles/Politische Korruption : Praktiken der Begünstigung und öffentliche Debatten in Deutschland und Frankreich (19. – 20. Jahrhundert) ». Ce programme (POCK) soutenu par l’agence nationale de la recherche (ANR) et son homologue allemande la Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), s’est achevé en août 2014. On en trouvera une présentation dans ce carnet.

Depuis septembre 2014, un deuxième programme franco-allemand a débuté sur ces thématiques : « Politique et corruption, argent immoral et influence politique en Allemagne et en France aux XIXe et XXe siècles ». Ce carnet donne une présentation des objectifs mais aussi les actualités de ce deuxième projet, soutenu par l’ANR et la DFG : POCK 2, qui doit s’achever en mai 2018. Du côté allemand, on lira la présentation sur le site Korruptionsforschung à l’université technique de Darmstadt."

On en découvre tous les jours. Ce matin au cours de ma demi-heure de recherche sur les précurseurs en cartographie, je découvre Herbert Bayer, élève du Bauhaus qui a commis cet ouvrage remarquablissime... avec une grosse influence Otto Neurath (entre autre).

À découvrir donc.

Herbert Bayer and the CCA

Herbert Bayer (5 Apr 1900 – 30 Sep 1985) began his career studying archirecture under Georg Schmidthammer and later painting at the Darmstadt Artists’ Colony. Inspired by Walter Gropius’ Bauhaus manifesto, he enrolled in the Weimar Bauhaus and studied painting under Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee and László Moholy-Nagy. After passing his journeymans exam Gropius appointed him as the junior master of the newly-created typography workshop. Bayer spent three years on faculity at Dessau before starting his own design firm in Berlin.1

Bayer was among the last of the Bauhaus faculty to emigrate from Germany, leaving for New York only after his work was singled out by the Nazis in their infamous 1937 Degenerate Art Exhibition.

ESA teams respond to debris risk | Rocket Science
▻http://blogs.esa.int/rocketscience/2017/01/24/esa-operations-teams-respond-to-debris-risk

For the past few days, experts from ESA’s Space Debris Office at ESOC in Darmstadt, Germany, have been assessing a conjunction (read: collision) forecast issued by the US armed forces’ Joint Space Operations Center (JSpOC) located at Vandenberg Air Force base in California.
[…]
JSpOC has identified a close approach for Swarm-B forecast to occur on 25 January at 23:10:55 UTC, which will be 00:10:55 CET on 26 January. The forecast miss distance is just 361 m, and this triggers a risk above the 1/10,000 risk threshold.

The chaser object is a piece of Cosmos-375 fragmentation debris. It is very small, having a radar cross-section of just 0.02 m2.

“This corresponds to a size of about 15 cm” says Tim Flohrer, the space debris analyst on duty this week at ESA’s Space Debris Office.

“With 130 observations in the database, it’s a very well tracked object, and we’re pretty confident that we know its orbit with a high degree of accuracy.”

Nonetheless, there are uncertainties in its orbit, on the order of 1000m in the along-track direction. This means it could easily come much closer than 361m to Swarm-B, and potentially even collide.

An encounter with #Klim_Churyumov

Two years ago this week, the entire world was getting ready for a historic endeavour in space: the first soft #Landing of a human-made probe on a #comet. On 12 November 2014, #Rosetta's lander #Philae landed on #Comet_67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, and while the landing didn’t go exactly as planned, Philae finally managed to secure itself to the nucleus and to conduct a series of scientific experiments in situ, while Rosetta kept observing the comet from a distance until the mission’s end last September. As communicators of ESA’s #Science missions, we gathered at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt, Germany, to follow Philae’s landing and report it via ESA’s web and social media. During the week, ESOC was packed with scientists and engineers from the Rosetta and Philae (...)

Inside a Remote Russian Mennonite Village

As a young girl, photographer #Mika_Sperling, a recipient of the TIME award at the 2015 Eddie Adams Workshop, visited a Russian Mennonite Sunday school in Darmstadt, which she attended until the age of 13. She remembers the pattern of the cushioned benches and the soundproof children rooms, where mothers would sit with their little ones during church service. Years later, she returned to a similar chapel with a camera and the idea for what would become a two-year project capturing these families in Russia, Germany and Canada.

#Rosetta and #Philae in contact again
▻http://blogs.esa.int/rosetta/2015/06/19/rosetta-and-philae-in-contact-again

ESA and its #rosetta mission partners have confirmed that another communication link has been made between Rosetta and #philae today. The signal was transmitted from Rosetta to ESA’s space #Operations centre in Darmstadt and received at 15:37 CEST on 19 June, and confirmed by the Lander Control Centre at the German Space Centre, DLR. A second signal was received at 15:54 CEST. The downlink was stable; the two contacts received by Rosetta lasted two minutes each. Both delivered numerous packets of lander housekeeping and status data, 185 in total, which are still being analysed at the time of this writing. No science data were anticipated or received. “We are very happy to have received signals from the lander again, and we are all working hard towards establishing a robust link between (...)

Facebook Privacy Watcher is an addon for Mozilla Firefox, that has been developed at Center for Advanced Security Research Darmstadt (CASED) in association with TU Darmstadt (Technical University of Darmstadt). It provides a new and very simple interface to manage your privacy settings on Facebook.

Because the default privacy settings are more and more open with each update, it is very important to easily grasp and change the privacy settings to be protected from unintended oversharing. However, the settings are quite detailed, and thus it’s hard to keep track of them. For every single entry in your profile and your timeline, you can set set the audience to which an object is visible.

The idea of Facebook Privacy Watcher is, to colorize every single item depending on its visibility to your friends and strangers. So it takes just seconds to recognize and change the privacy settings.
