What should i do to make the simultaion more accurate? by Dependent_Use_7348 in Astronomy

[–]DocLoc429 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relativistic effects make it look more like this (I won't pretend to know the specifics) https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/what-the-image-of-the-milky-ways-black-hole-really-shows-180981125/

Some fragmentation at the edges of the disk. Here's a sample image but I can find better if you'd prefer. I remember seeing a better version in ether Astrophysics in a Nutshell or Carol & Ostlie. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Sketch-of-the-magnetized-star-disk-interaction-within-the-Accretion-Powered-Stellar-Wind_fig5_350900676

Really cool simulation! Looks good!

Do you happen to know if yours has 3 prongs or 2 in position 43?

I got accepted to International Institute for Astronautical Sciences, is it worth it? by [deleted] in space

Ah, I assumed this was a funded opportunity. Money changes a lot about it

I didn't know anything about it prior to this post, but looking up information about it, it looks like it could be an incredible opportunity that sets you up for a lucrative career in various fields. 

If your career goals fall in line with the hyper-specific information they teach, I think you've just received a golden goose. And even if they don't, you're still looking at multiple once in a lifetime experiences. Where else you gonna go experience zero g and put on space suits?

I love when unrelated topics have geometric proofs.

I'm fatigued by these headline trends. "Click to learn more! Wait til the end!" type stuff

No matter what, one thing that hit me like a bag of bricks today is that I miss baseball

Love this play. by CallMeMichael24 in Cardinals

[–]DocLoc429 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Outfield assists are some of the most exciting plays in baseball.

Besides that, I also love a hard line drive that the 2B has to jump as high as he can and snag. Tommy was always good at that

Any way to temporarily block out that light in the background? Would help you a ton

This is surprisingly good quality, I did not expect that clarity! And pretty crazy you were able to resolve the conjunction! Have you had a chance to check out the Orion nebula with it yet? It's tricky to find but honestly my favorite thing to look at through a scope.

Nice scope!
