@SpaceScience_ Trop stylé! Ma modeste tentative de la semaine dernière depuis un bortle 7 ici au bord du lac Ontario, c’est fou à quel point peut importe où tu zoomes, tu tombes forcément sur une autre galaxie, ça me fascine
IF ANYONE IS PLANNING ON BUYING A RECORD PLAYER PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD INVEST IN A GOOD ONE DO NOT GET THOSE BRIEFCASE ONES THEY WILL DESTROY YOUR VINYLS !!!
(Bonus 2/2) Stranger Things is my all-time favorite show, hence why I went all-in on this project. If I’m being honest (although it sounds fairly naive and candid now), I was hoping folks at Netflix would come across my work and hire me for Season 5. Oh well.
(1/3) In 2022, knowing S4 was coming, I spent 40 weeks composing a cinematic, 11-track EP I planned to drop the day the season aired. Within six hours of its release on May 27, the label behind the real soundtrack shut it down.
(Bonus 1/2) Here are the visuals. I kept the post up on Instagram for old time’s sake, just to remember how much I loved shaping this project to my exact vision, sonically and visually. It’s not available anywhere anymore, and yeah I definitely deserved the kick in the butt lol.
WE ARE SO TINY. Sunspots serve as the visible indicators of intense magnetic activity on the Sun's surface and are closely linked to the origin of solar flares, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and solar energetic particles (SEPs).
These dark patches are cooler regions where magnetic fields are concentrated and often twisted due to the Sun’s rotation and convection. Over time, the magnetic energy around sunspots can become highly stressed and unstable.
When this energy is suddenly released through a process called magnetic reconnection, it can trigger powerful solar flares: bursts of radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum.
These flares are often accompanied by CMEs, which are massive clouds of magnetized plasma ejected from the Sun into space. The same explosive events can also accelerate charged particles, primarily protons and electrons, to near lightspeeds.
Sunspots mark the regions where the magnetic conditions are ripe for these high-energy solar phenomena to erupt.

The current budget proposal destroys NASA. It cuts a telescope that’s already assembled. It closes NASA centers. This is horrific for science. I feel like we can all agree that science is good.
