This Unprocessed Image Shows Features In Saturn’s Atmosphere From Closer Than Ever Before. The View

This unprocessed image shows features in Saturn’s atmosphere from closer than ever before. The view was captured by our Cassini spacecraft during its first Grand Finale dive between the planet and its rings on April 26, 2017.

As Cassini dove through the gap, it came within about 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometers) of Saturn’s cloud tops (where the air pressure is 1 bar – comparable to the atmospheric pressure of Earth at sea level) and within about 200 miles (300 kilometers) of the innermost visible edge of the rings.

I Got Bored And Went Digging Through The Box Of Tubes Again... Found A Nice Looking 6F6 GT And A 6Y6
I Got Bored And Went Digging Through The Box Of Tubes Again... Found A Nice Looking 6F6 GT And A 6Y6

I got bored and went digging through the box of tubes again... Found a nice looking 6F6 GT and a 6Y6 GT, and kind of ran off in high spirits and decided a little broadcast band receiver would be a fun project. For this project I wanted them outside the box (CD case) where I could see 'em. Mounted all the heavy components. (back-to-back Radio Shack 12V CT transformers to make what amounts to an isolation transformer, picking off filament power between the two... Audio output transformer...) I haven't even decided if it's going to be a regenerative or something that requires less fussing with during operation. Any suggestions, anyone?

Of Course Rockets Work In Space, Flat-Earther!

Flat-Earthers have a fixed set of unfounded assertions they cycle through when confronting the rational. One of the most used is the ‘Rockets can’t work in space because there is no air for them to push agains!’ claim. The following video will help you respond to them in a clear, concise way. There are even TWO experiments you can have them try out themselves, so they know you’re not just spewing…

SDHoS Attends Fundraiser for The Jeremy Fund

Tonight we are not debunking anything. This will come as a surprise to our regular readers, since we normally spend our time refuting the claims of flat-earthers, conspiracy theorists, science deniers and such.

On Tuesday, June 28th, two representatives from Science Denier Hall of Shame attended a pasta dinner fundraiser for The Jeremy Fund.
