@KathMorrow90 @OregonState @IIASAVienna Hothouse earth is like a left wing conspiracy theory. It's far from consensus, & way outside the range of evidence.

Indeed, an excerpt of rhymed reason: Our climate’s breakdown is so fast, The why we live it may not last, A climate expert Hansen fears, Beyond the 2030 years. We're burning fuel for energy To power an economy We seem unable yet to learn When we set fires, it's us we burn. We're dying of increasing heat That kills us and the food we eat Directly, and too bakes the land Diminishing our room to stand That rising seas also decrease As melting ice caps all release More water than returns as snow. What's more there is decreasing flow From glaciers on mountain tops And where flows end life clearly stops. Increasing heat evaporates More water, so precipitates Amounts of rain beyond belief That dried out land can bring relief. The floods which are a consequence Cause death and damage beyond sense. Another consequence is drought. To keep the land from drying out We suck up water from the ground Diminishing what can be found. A final unexpected drain Is water needed for the ‘brain’ That makes up A-intelligence Which is replacing Nature’s sense. Heat also melts the permafrost Releasing plagues that were long lost, And methane gas which kills as well. Heat too makes earth a deadly hell By raising our earth’s temperature  Beyond which our life can endure. The heat makes worse all hurricanes When now they hit not much remains. As heat is killing food we plant It heats the oceans so they can't Breath life into marine supplies On which humanity relies. It's heat that science also blames For turning forests into flames That burn Earth's lungs and also leave Her breath impossible to breathe. With heat and drought our deaths add up By flooding or an empty cup. Caused by the ‘death’ that fills the sky, We hear our ‘Mother’s’ plaintive cry Of mourning, for the view is stark. We're floundering and there's no ark. In ages past to stay alive We’d migrate, but we’d now arrive At places where there’s only doom Because there’s simply no more room.👇more

@OregonState @IIASAVienna This shows how thin the safety margin really is. We are closer to tipping cascades than many assume. Once feedback loops start, control is lost. Rapid emissions cuts and resilience must accelerate now!

@OregonState @IIASAVienna All this is bullshit. What are the key temperature thresholds, in degrees Celsius, please? (You don't know, & neither do they.) What is current GMT? They've never heard of Le Chatelier's Principle. If you have, explain how positive feedback loops develop.

@OregonState @IIASAVienna For me this shows how thin the safety margin is. Once feedbacks kick in, options shrink fast. Prevention now matters more than adaptation later.

@OregonState @IIASAVienna All the tipping point systems? Which are? And amazon is a carbon emitter now because they still BURN DOWN THE FOREST. Of course it will be a emitter if you rode the forest. And when will we finally reach a tipping point? Is it "soon™️"? Will it always be "soon™️"? Thought so.

2034 Earth–Venus–Mars opportunity looks promising. 10–15 on-orbit refueling operations may be needed to make a crewed ship full. Most can be done at an altitude of 180–200 km, made possible by Starship’s size. The final refueling may be performed at a higher altitude of ~2000 km, just below the Van Allen belt. Earth departure on 2034-08-21 from 2000 km orbit. A Trans-Venus Injection burn of ~3.7 km/s will place the ship on an Earth–Venus–Earth free-return trajectory. Venus flyby is expected on 2034-12-19, 120 days after departure. Two weeks before the encounter, if the mission proceeds as planned, a 25-m/s maneuver will shift the trajectory from Earth-return to Mars-bound. If not, the ship will free return to Earth in September 2035. The Venus gravity assist will send the ship into another Earth free-return trajectory, with Mars flyby around 2035-06-02. One week before reaching Mars, a system health check will determine whether to commit to Mars Orbit Insertion. If it’s GO, a small 10-m/s manuever will put the ship to less than 100 km altitude periapsis. Otherwise, a Mars flyby will lead to an Earth return in May 2036. The ship will enter the Martian atmosphere at about 9.4 km/s, performing an aerobrake to slow to 4.88 km/s and capture into a 100x140000 km, 7-day period high elliptical orbit. At apoapsis, a 50-m/s plane change will align the inclination with Mars’ equator, followed by additional aerobraking to remove about 650 m/s of velocity, placing the spacecraft in a 120x6128 km orbit. A 550-m/s burn at 6128 km altitude will then adjust the trajectory into Phobos orbit. The ship will stay at Phobos for about 7 days. The Mars–Phobos L1 point is only about two miles above Phobos’ surface, and Mars would dominate nearly half the sky, appearing about 80 times larger than the Moon from Earth. The ship will depart for Deimos afterward. Two burns totaling roughly 750 m/s will transfer the ship from Phobos to Deimos. And the ship will stay at Deimos for 7 days more. From Deimos, the ship will raise its apoapsis to form a 20000x140000 km altitude, 7-day orbit, requiring about 420 m/s of delta-v. At apogee, a 50-m/s burn will adjust inclination and lower periapsis to ~500 km for final Trans-Earth Injection. If time and propellant allow, the orbit can be aligned to a polar inclination for Mars ice-cap observations before departure. A Trans-Earth Injection burn at 500 km altitude, requiring 1.5–1.6 km/s of delta-v in early July 2035. If departure on the first days in July, Earth arrival is expected in December 2035. If missed that window, a March 2036 arrival may look more feasible. Nominal mission duration: 490 days, with 30 days in Mars orbit and 14 days at Phobos and Deimos. Two planets, two moons for 3.7+0.025+0.010+0.05+0.42+0.55+0.75+1.55=7.06 km/s Δv

Mars will be our next planetary home for human civilization. Here are a few things you need to know > Mars formed about 4.5 billion years ago alongside Earth and likely started as a warmer, wetter world before it lost its global magnetic field and dried into the cold desert seen today > Mars is only about half the physical size of Earth, but because it has no oceans, its total dry land area is similar to all of Earth’s continents combined, making it effectively 100% usable “real estate” > Surface gravity on Mars is just 38% of Earth’s, so you could jump roughly three times higher and lift much heavier objects than you could on Earth > New evidence suggests a massive reservoir of liquid water may be trapped 10–20 kilometers beneath the Martian crust, theoretically enough to cover the whole planet in an ocean if it were brought to the surface > The search for alien life has intensified after NASA’s Perseverance rover found rocks with “leopard spot” patterns that may record chemical signatures consistent with ancient microbial life, though the findings are still being tested > Martian weather is extreme: the average temperature is about -81°F (-62°C) and can drop near -225°F in some regions, yet summer days near the equator can briefly reach around 70°F, similar to a mild day on Earth > Colonizing Mars will be difficult because of toxic soil, high radiation, and a very thin atmosphere, but deep underground water and protected subterranean habitats could make long-term human survival scientifically possible > Sunsets on Mars appear blue rather than red because fine dust in the thin atmosphere scatters red light away from the line of sight and lets more blue light pass through > Mars has two small, irregular moons, Phobos and Deimos; Phobos is slowly spiraling inward and is expected to eventually break apart, likely creating a temporary ring system around the planet > The planet hosts some of the most extreme landscapes in the solar system, including Olympus Mons, a giant volcano about three times taller than Mount Everest, and Valles Marineris, a canyon system so huge it makes the Grand Canyon look tiny by comparison > We are still only visitors on Mars, but with every SpaceX Starship mission, we get closer to the day this harsh red desert becomes humanity’s next home H/t: X Freeze

[Heo Seongbeom Youtube] 260305 Jin - Moon 🌕🌏 (part1) 👨‍🏫It’s a solo song by Jin, and BTS are also preparing for a comeback in March. I’m really looking forward to it. I’m the moon, and you are the Earth. So it becomes a kind of love triangle. Earlier the sea loved the moon, but who does the moon love? The moon loves the Earth. That idea is reflected in this song, so let’s try interpreting it. Since when have the moon and the Earth been together like this? We’ve been together for so long, but when did it start? About 4.51 to 4.53 billion years ago. Scientists figured this out through radioactive isotope analysis, which showed that the Moon is about 4.51 to 4.53 billion years old. “Shining just by existing.” This line is directed at the Earth. But does the Earth actually shine just by existing? No. Because the Earth is a planet and does not produce its own light. If the Earth appears to shine, it’s probably because of artificial lights made by humans. “Can I stay by your side and protect you?” It sounds shy, but in reality the moon can’t help staying there, because it’s bound by gravity. And here we see the main line of the song. “You are my Earth, and to you I’m just a moon. Your small star that lights up your heart.” It’s poetic, but is the moon actually a star? No. Celestial bodies are generally divided into two categories. First, there are stars (stellar bodies). These produce their own light. Second, there are planets. Planets do not produce their own light. Instead, planets usually orbit around a star. The Earth is a planet. From our perspective, the star in our system is the Sun. So when you look at the night sky and see stars, those lights are actually other suns, each producing their own light. But sometimes when you see a particularly bright “star,” it may actually be a planet like Mercury, Venus, Mars, or Jupiter. Then you might ask: if planets don’t produce their own light, why do they shine? Because they reflect sunlight. The Moon also appears bright because it reflects the Sun’s light. #JIN #방탄소년단진 방탄소년단
