Sun Dogs Dancing in Clouds
Photo credit: At about 9am I spotted this sun dog over a store. I noticed the right most sun dog first then realized it was a sun dog forming the 22 degree halo. -KG
The sun dog is a member of the family of halos caused by the refraction of sunlight by ice crystals in the atmosphere.
A sun dog (or sundog) or mock sun, also called a parhelion[1] (plural parhelia) in atmospheric science, is an atmosphericoptical phenomenon that consists of a bright spot to one or both sides of the Sun. Two sun dogs often flank the Sun within a 22° halo. - [**]
i'm sorry but merriam-webster dictionary why the fuck is this in the slang dictionary
are todays teens just going around calling eachother skibidi sigma heliophysics like bro
Lights, camera, action! NASA has released the latest images from the Parker Solar Probe upon its closest approach to the sun in December of 2024. The probe, designed to study the sun's atmosphere and provide a greater understanding of the nature and behaviors of our star, passed just 3.8 million miles from the sun's surface. Now that might still seem like a lot, but remember space is really big. Mars, our closest planetary neighbor, is 140 million miles away. So for Parker, that's pretty close! And it's the closest a man-made object had ever been to the sun.
The images released from Parker, compiled into a short video, demonstrate the intense outbursts of coronal mass ejections.
If particles from a magnetically-charged CME make their way towards Earth, it can cause space weather including geomagnetic storms and, like solar flares, can interrupt radio signals and cause power outages. And they're also behind the aurora! Understanding CMEs through Parker and other solar science missions allows us to better prepare for large-scale geomagnetic events, and address the more significant impacts.
The Parker Solar Probe is a really cool mission, both in its scientific achievements and in the spacecraft itself. It's the fastest man-made object ever (yes, even faster than that manhole cover) soaring through space at 430,000 miles per hour. It's set to fly by the sun again on September 15th of this year, so keep an eye out for the next adventures of Parker!

Three Missions Launch to Track Space Weather (Official NASA Trailer)
Look at this trailer for the mission I work on!!!
I've been working on IMAP for almost 3 years now and it has been so much effort from so many people! It's incredibly exciting that we're launching it into space THIS MONTH!!!!!
Science Science-Fiction Movies
Not all scientists are physicists! Here are some movies that highlight different fields of study
All fully recommended, some of my personal favorites
Geomorphology and Geophysics: The Core
Geomorphology: the scientific study of the physical and chemical processes that impact how surface of a planet changes. For example, a fluvial geomorphologist is a scientist that studies how rivers (fluvial) change the surface of a planet. Not always Earth, some geomorphologist study planets like Mars and Mercury. Earth science is more than just geology and rocks! Sometimes it also about rocks moving around or being eroded 🌏
Meteorology: Twister and Twisters
Meteorology: the study of a planet’s atmosphere with a strong focus on forecasting the weather 🌪️
Linguistics: The Arrival
Linguistics: the scientific study of languages 🖋️
Seismology: Tremors
Seismology: the scientific study of earthquakes 🪇🪨
Heliophysics and Solar Physics: Sunshine
Heliophysics: the scientific study of the sun and its effects on the solar system ☀️
Paleontology: Jurassic Park
Paleontology: the scientific study of life on earth through the fossil record 🦴 🦕
Botany and Astrophysics: The Martian
This one is a bit of a mix. The book makes uses of a lot of astrophysics, but the character is a botanist
Astrophysics: the scientific study of physical and chemical processes of the cosmos (a newer field of astronomy that includes more of a focus on physics) 🛰️
Botany: the scientific study of plants 🌱
Genetics and Astronomy: Gattaca
Another mix! The main theme of the movie revolves around genetics and genetic engineering (specifically eugenics). However, the main character is an astronomer/astronaut
Genetics: a branch of biology that concerns the scientific study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity 🧬
Astronomy: the study of space, stars, planets, and other celestial objects 🪐
