    When I visited Australia from the US we went to a dark sky location to see the milky way (MINDBLOWING), but I was pointing out Orion to my GF and suddenly realised it was upside down, really blew my mind realising that, finally converted me from a flat earther (only kidding) but just rocked my world seeing that, may not sound amazing but seeing it IRL and realising my position on the planet was giving me this new perspective really put things in, err, perspective.

My life without Universe Today would've taken a totally different course, and I'm convinced it would've been a worse course, because that's just the quality of content we're talking about here.

    When you were talking about what you can see in the southern hemisphere you left out the Great Southern Cross. The first time I saw it I was stationed on a US Guided Missile Frigate on our way to Australia. The size is amazing.
    I loved going out on the weather deck after midnight out at sea and watching the sky. Particularly in the Pacific Ocean, hundreds of miles from any land. On a clear calm night there is nothing like it❤❤❤

    The orientation of the crescent Moon changes even when you stay in the same place. There is a folk tale that drought is caused when the Moon "holds water," that is, looks like a bowl held horizontally. When the Moon bowl is tipped so the water can flow out, the rain will come.

  • @AubriGryphon
    @AubriGryphon 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    During the 2012 Tulum cruise, I remember you mentioning the moon being in a different orientation because we were so far south and I was like, "Uh, I guess? A little?" Then I realized you were speaking mainly to people who didn't already live around 30N and the difference was much more significant to you. XD

    One of the highlights of a trip to Buenos Aires for me was seeing Alpha Centauri for the first time. I didn't even realize at first I was looking at it, until I saw a bright star, and then saw Crux and realized where I was looking. Ironically enough a few months before that I'd gone to Hawaii for the first time and it was pretty cool to see so much of Scorpio.

    Adding repeaters to the deep space network would help - so having a deep space network in deep space would help.
    A 70m dish at Mars linked to a 70m dish at Jupiter would change a lot of things.

  • @ddthames
    @ddthames 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Space communications....several years ago I recall a new function of TCPIP protocol so that for each "hop" in a series of routers each router would buffer and could re-transmit a data packet without asking the source of the packet to re-transmit. This is a critical step to effective relays. Not sure if this has been implemented or not but like for Mars orbiters that we have today, I would expect the newer ones would be doing this already.

    Oh nooo.. I almost never comment and never before to disagree, BUT I think the answer about shadows on the moon is.. not right? Just watch the moon over the next year, (you're only slightly further north than me Fraser) you will see we have the smiley moon, a sad face, and the DreamWorks image (minus the fishing kid) from both directions and every rotation.. I think.. it surprised me too, but the realization was a family moment I will not forget.. Love the channel, I watch it all every week, (bring on the NIAC interviews!!) keep up the amazing work 🙂

    • @CloudPeopleRecords
      @CloudPeopleRecords 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thought about it.. could it be due to the angle of the moon's orbit relative to our solar plane..? When it's low in it's relative inclination we would get the happy face??
