This is the #heliotrope, a solar powered hot air balloon that can deliver 2 kg to the tropopause, 800 g to the stratosphere. Fly all day, land at sunset. Got a payload? You build it, we'll fly it.
Local wind fields and human activity have major impacts on infrasound microbarometer background noise. Congrats to the lead author A. Malach of @SandiaLabs on her first first-author paper!

Albuquerque residents, the glowing object in the sky is a NASA stratospheric balloon catching the sunlight. It’s big and it’s way up there. No cause for alarm, the aliens aren’t this obvious

Published in #GJI Geophysical Journal International: "The Korean infrasound catalogue (1999–2022)", Park et al. This is Fig. 1: for the caption & to read the paper please visit academic.oup.com/gji/article… @OxfordJournals @RoyalAstroSoc
ALT Locations of infrasound arrays in South Korea and the nearby International Monitoring System infrasound stations (IS30 and IS45) in Japan and Russia. The average distance to the three closest arrays is contoured (blue line) on the map. The geometries of infrasound sensors at each array are displayed in the eight subplots.
I don’t post much here anymore but just wanted to give @northspore props for my first shiitake flush! It ain’t easy here in the high desert but looks like it can be done after all!
Live view of the AESOP-Lite balloon mission preparing for flight out of Antarctica. The ANIHALA infrasound piggyback is on board as well.

🔦Shedding light on #Venus interior is key to understand its evolution. Seismic tomography is a good way to do it but it is too🔥at the surface! Can balloons🎈detect these venusquakes from the atmosphere? Check out our poster on Monday at the #AGU23

✅ All systems go! The #OSIRISREx mission team has voted to release the capsule containing an asteroid sample from the spacecraft. Here’s what we’re expecting to happen today: go.nasa.gov/3ERLjsC

Taylor Swaim's @ASA_POMA paper on the development and evaluation of infrasound windscreen designs for high altitude balloons, which is ultimately aimed for flights on Venus, also came out today:

📢Seismometers can detect earthquakes & MUCH more... We just showed that they also give unprecedented insights into military conflicts. This is critical to determine breaches of international law. Work done at @NorsarInfo that just came out in

New preprint 🚨 from our NORSAR team looking into the realtime monitoring of the 2022 #Ukraine #Russia conflict using seismic & acoustic data. We detect large-scale & well reported assaults as well as numerous unreported events bit.ly/3J0BfPO

New record warm low temp of 76F set at ABQ Sunport this morning. Was ABQ's 20th morning low >= 70F in 2023, continuing this century's trend of warming low temps (see graph). Atmosphere is trying to radiatively cool at night, but human-caused greenhouse gases trap the heat. #NMWx
Leaving 🐦 for 🧵, hope @NWSAlbuquerque will join soon along with all my other fav science accounts. Happy to see @IBJIYONGI and others already there.

An Iceland volcano is erupting for the third time in three years.🌋
Our SkySat captured its glowing lava flowing from fissures in the ground and its volcanic glasses rimmed by smoky brush fires yesterday near Iceland’s capital, Reykjavik.

If you, or someone you know, is in need of cooling centers and resources in Albuquerque, here is where you can find them. @cabq
