Climate Change Communication

...in a tree and then some. Creativity is needed when you want to spread the word about your scientific work and results. Particularly challenging for both the sender and receiver when the topic is climate change and the political temperature is much higher than the global warming...:-)

To learn a trick or two on how to, just sign up for a workshop in Copenhagen (deadline for signing up is 20th November 2009), invite your loved ones and be inspired by both the Christmas decorations in Tivoli and the UN climate change meeting COP15. :-)

The workshops are organized by Nordpil and Envalue.

That is the unanswered question based on the shape of the galaxy. Meaning, the shape of a galaxy does not necessarily reveal the fact of a black hole in it.

Baguettes and Physics

After The Baguette Attack

Nice splashes to be seen at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider at Cern). Bird did not succeed in stopping it. :-)

Northern Sweden, more precisely Lapland, is pretty pretty on this image from above. :-)

Night Witches

Deadly Women!

Those who are afraid of women have every reason to be. We are potential witches all of us - and will sneak up on you in the night....:-)

Cool unknown aviation history. Thanks ShirlT, for sending it to me.

Oslo can be a sight even in October. And plenty of what Oslo offers can be seen by boat. I need to do this myself one of these days...:-)

I've chosen to show a picture of our characteristic town hall.

Spring Bloom

Spring! Bloom

On the other side of the planet they are enjoying the spring right now. While I'm getting colder each minute...

Monarchs in Mexico

Do click on the links in this USGS article. They have made an awesome collection of maps, satellite images and other illustrations. Very well done. And I love butterflies! :-)

Planet C

Akatsuki - Planet C

Make yourself a paper spacecraft (paper dolls for techo freaks...) Click on the inviting smile below and scroll to the bottom of the page and you'll find two paper toys! Enjoy! :-)

As far as we can see at the moment, as it happens. :-)

Dust Devils

Little Devils - On Mars!

HiRISE is one of my favorite NASA thingies (actually University of Arizona mostly...:-S). Just look at this awesome HiRISE image of dust devil's trails on Mars. Fabutastic! :-)

Prominence

Prominence in Stereo

Check out that magnificent prominence (that gas thing coming out of the Sun...:-))! Just contemplate a little while on the sheer size of those outbursts! Makes me totally happy. :-)

Desertification

Dried Up

South-Africa

In spite of the power of satellite imaging I do believe we have a bit of a challenge securing fresh water to everyone.

Mayans and such

Some reflections by Atunes here.

NASA is talking about the Mayans too.
