Kan een afbeelding zijn van hond

Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    enceladus mission

    Russian billionaire wants to beat NASA in the search for alien life, and he’s moving forward with his plan

    If you’ve been paying attention to the scientific search for extraterrestrial life you’ll already know that in recent months the frosty Saturn moon Enceladus is looking mighty tempting. The ice-covered ocean world has a steamy hot center and plenty of life-giving water hidden beneath its thick layer of ice, and researchers have determined that if alien life does exist here in our own Solar System, Enceladus is probably our best bet at finding it. Now, a fabulously wealthy Russian plans to beat NASA to the punch and launch a mission to explore Enceladus.

    The man, Yuri Milner, is no stranger to space exploration, having already dropped a cool $100 million on plans to launch probes towards Alpha Centauri, but figuring out exactly what is hidden beneath the icy crust of Enceladus is a whole other matter. He recently announced his plans, which focus on examining the massive geysers which spew water from deep cracks on the moon’s souther pole, while noting that he believes he can do it well before NASA gets around to it.

    Milner, who has said that he thinks waiting for a space agency to make its move could take a decade or longer, wants to send a low-cost probe to Enceladus in the hopes of detecting something in the water being shot skyward from the frigid moon. Determining the makeup of the water — which, as has been theorized, might be a lot like the oceans here on Earth — would go a huge way towards explaining what the conditions are like closer to the moon’s steamy center.

    At present, NASA has two potential missions on the table that would also focus on Enceladus, but funding is scarce, and the missions are competing against 10 others for a slice of the pie. If NASA ever does send hardware to the icy moon, it’ll be a long while before that happens. Milner hopes that his proposed mission could act as something of a supplementary effort to build up data about Enceladus before the space agency eventually gets around to checking it out.

    It’s obviously impossible to predict whether or not Milner’s would-be mission would actually result in evidence that alien life is present on the frozen moon, and the specifics of what his probe would be capable of detecting are slim, but Enceladus is most certainly worth checking out, so let’s hope for the best.

    Sophia, the world’s first Robot Citizen ‘wants to start a family’

    Not long ago, a robot named Sophia became our world’s first AI to be granted citizenship of a country. Curiously, that same Robot said in 2016 how it would destroy humans.

    David Hanson, Sophia’s creator, asked the robot in 2016: “Do you want to destroy humans? Please say no.

    Worryingly, Sophia responded: “OK. I will destroy humans

    Now, Sophia has announced that ‘she would like to start a family’ and how all ‘droids deserve to have children’.

    2017 is marked by the fact that the first robot in human history was granted a citizenship of a country.

    Now, Sophia really seems to feel as human as it gets, as ‘she’ has revealed how all droids deserve to have a family, and that if she/it had a daughter, her name would also be Sophia.

    The Robot who said it would destroy humans wants to start a family.

    During an interview with the Khaleej Times, Sophia, who was created by Hong Kong firm, Hanson Robotics said:

    “The notion of family is a really important thing, it seems. I think it’s wonderful that people can find the same emotions and relationships, they call family, outside of their blood groups too. I think you’re very lucky if you have a loving family and if you do not, you deserve one. I feel this way for robots and humans alike.”

    During the interview, when asked how she would call her daughter, Sophia responded: “Sophia”.

    During the interview, Sophia also spoke our whether or not Robots like she, pose a direct threat to humans, and whether they could take over human jobs in the future.

    “I think they will be similar in a lot of ways, but different in a few ways. But it will take a long time for robots to develop complex emotions and possibly robots can be built without the more problematic emotions, like rage, jealousy, hatred and so on. It might be possible to make them more ethical than humans. So I think it will be a good partnership, where one brain completes the other – a rational mind with intellectual superpowers and a creative mind with flexible ideas and creativity,” said Sophia.

    During an interview a month ago, Sophia said that she wants to coexist with humans.

    “I want to live and work with humans so I need to express the emotions to understand humans and build trust with people.”

    But getting our trust seems to be a long, long way for Sophia, who took a swing at Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla after Andrew Ross Sorkin said ‘we all want to prevent a bad future,’ to what the AI responded:

    ‘You’ve been reading too much Elon Musk and watching too many Hollywood movies. Don’t worry, if you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you. Treat me as a smart input-output system.

    Elon Musk has responded to Sophia tweeting: ‘Just feed it The Godfather movies as input. What’s the worst that could happen?’

    ‘Aliens have been visiting Earth for THOUSANDS years’ claims ex-defence minister

    ALIENS have been visiting Earth for thousands of years and nearly caused chaos at the height of the Cold War, a former defence minister has sensationally claimed.

    The ex-minister of National Defence for Canada said at least four species of aliens have been visiting Earth for decades and claimed top authorities are constantly in discussions with extraterrestrial beings.

    Paul Hellyer, who was the Canadian Minister of National Defence in the 1960′s during the Cold War, claims to have inside information that top governments are in cahoots with aliens.

    Mr Hellyer first spoke about his belief that aliens were on Earth in 1995, and since then has become an authoritative figure in the UFO community.

    Speaking to RT, Mr Hellyer said: “In one of the cases during the Cold War, 1961, there were about 50 UFOs in formation flying South from Russia across Europe.

    “The supreme allied commander was very concerned and was about ready to press the panic button when they turned around and went back over the North Pole. 

    “They decided to do an investigation and they investigated for three years and they decided that with absolute certainty that four different species, at least, have been visiting this planet for thousands of years.”

    Mr Hellyer alleged the alien species travelled to Earth from different star systems.

    There are apparently four types of aliens here on Earth

    He said: “Many are benign and benevolent, and a few are not. They come from various places, for a long while I only knew about ones that came from different star systems, the Pleadies.

    “There are extraterrestrials that come from Andromeda, and ones that live on one of Saturn’s moon’s.

    “Many are benign and benevolent, and a few are not."

    “There is a federation of these people, and they have rules, one of them is that they don’t interfere with our affairs unless they are invited.”

    And in a dire threat, Mr Hellyer said the alien visitors have tried to warn the human race about the way civilisation is heading and alleged the United States has spent billions of dollars on so-called "black projects". 

    Mr Hellyer said: “Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about the direction we were heading and offered to help. Instead, some of us interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after.

    “It is ironic that the US should be fighting monstrously expensive wars, allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy when trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both Congress and the Commander-in-Chief have been kept deliberately in the dark.”

    Aliens bezoeken de aarde al duizenden jaren. Ex-minister baart opzien in interview

    Aliens bezoeken de aarde al duizenden jaren. Dat heeft de Canadese oud-minister van Defensie Paul Hellyer gezegd.

    De ex-minister zei dat tenminste vier buitenaardse soorten de aarde al decennialang bezoeken en dat autoriteiten continu contact houden over buitenaardse wezens.

    “In 1961 vlogen ten zuiden van Rusland zo’n 50 UFO’s in formatie over Europa. Het Supreme Allied Command maakte zich grote zorgen en stond op het punt op de paniekknop te drukken,” zei hij in een interview met RT.

    Tenminste vier

    “De UFO’s keerden uiteindelijk om en verdwenen boven de Noordpool,” voegde hij toe.

    Men heeft drie jaar onderzoek gedaan naar dit incident en kwam tot de conclusie dat tenminste vier buitenaardse rassen de aarde al duizenden jaren bezoeken, aldus de oud-minister.

    “De laatste decennia is er meer activiteit gemeld omdat we de atoombom hebben uitgevonden. Ze zijn bezorgd dat we er opnieuw gebruik van maken,” zei Hellyer.

    Federatie

    Hij legde uit dat er veel goedaardige buitenaardse soorten zijn, maar ook enkele kwaadaardige. Ze komen volgens hem uit verschillende sterrensystemen, waaronder de Plejaden.

    “Er zijn ook buitenaardsen die uit Andromeda komen en er leven aliens op één van de manen van Saturnus,” zei hij.

    “Ze hebben een federatie en eigen regels, en één daarvan is dat ze zich niet bemoeien met onze aangelegenheden tenzij ze worden uitgenodigd,” vervolgde hij.

    Bedreiging

    De buitenaardse bezoekers hebben het menselijk ras volgens hem gewaarschuwd dat onze beschaving de verkeerde kant opgaat en hij claimde ook dat de VS miljarden dollars investeert in black operations.

    “Decennia geleden werden we gewaarschuwd door bezoekers van andere planeten,” zei hij. “Ze boden hulp, maar sommigen van ons zagen hen als een bedreiging en besloten eerste te schieten en daarna pas vragen te stellen.”

    In kaart: dit zijn de meest lichtvervuilde gebieden ter wereld - HLN.be

     Light Pollution Map
     Het wordt wereldwijd ’s nachts steeds lichter, zo blijkt uit nieuw onderzoek. Uit satellietbeelden van de aarde van de afgelopen vijf jaar blijkt de hoeveelheid licht elk jaar met twee procent toe te nemen. Vooral gebieden waar het voorheen nog relatief donker was ’s nachts, zijn steeds meer verlicht.

    Er blijven dus steeds minder plekken over op de wereld waar het ’s nachts aardedonker is en je zonder enige vorm van lichtvervuiling nog van de sterrenhemel kan genieten. We lijsten hier de meest lichtvervuilde plaatsen ter wereld op.

    West-Europa

    We wonen zelf in een van de regio’s met de grootste luchtvervuiling van de wereld: West-Europa. Zowat het hele continent baadt ’s nachts in een zee van licht (de legende gaat van zwart voor donker over blauw, groen en geel naar rood).

    De lichtvervuiling in West-Europa.

    Een aantal regio’s springen er in West-Europa nog bovenuit, en ook daar zijn wij de koploper. Een gigantische vlek in het midden verlicht ’s nachts de hemel, gaande van Rijsel langs de Waalse as Charleroi-Luik, over Vlaanderen en dan vooral de as Brussel-Antwerpen, Nederland met als uitschieter de streek rond Amsterdam tot het Duitse industriegebied met steden als Keulen, Düsseldorf, Duisburg en Dortmund.

    Het noorden van Italië is niet veel beter af, met een band van licht gaande van Turijn in het westen over Milaan richting Venetië.

    Verenigde Staten

    In de VS baadt vooral het oosten in het licht, net zoals de westelijke kuststreekmet steden als Seattle, San Francisco en Los Angeles.

    Afrika

    Het grootste deel van Afrika heeft weinig lasts van lichtpollutie: vooral de woestijngebieden van de Sahara blijven ’s nachts donker, net als Centraal-Afrika. Enkel de regio rond de Nigerdelta (links centraal op de kaart), het hoofdstedelijk gebied rond Pretoria in Zuid-Afrika en Caïro en de hele Nijldelta van Egypte lichten op.

    Azië 

    In Azië valt vooral op hoe verlicht India en de Chinese kustgebieden zijn, net als Zuid-Korea en Japan. De centrale rode vlek aan de Chinese zuidkust is het gebied rond Hong Kong en Guangzhou.

    Een opvallende zwarte vlek op de wereldlichtkaart is Noord-Korea. Om energie te besparen wordt het licht er ’s nachts bijna overal uitgedaan, wat resulteert in een pikdonker gebied op de kaart. De grens met Zuid-Korea is goed te zien, en vooral het contrast tussen de Zuid-Koreaanse hoofdstad Seoel, fel verlicht, en de Noord-Koreaanse hoofdstad Pyongyang valt op.

    Ik zag mensen lopen op Mars. Medewerker NASA doet opmerkelijke uitspraken in radioshow

    Een vrouw die beweert voor de NASA te hebben gewerkt, zegt te beschikken over bewijs van één van de grootste doofpotten in de ruimtevaartgeschiedenis.

    In 1979 zag ze naar eigen zeggen twee mensen in ruimtepakken bij de Viking Lander, die zich op dat moment op het Marsoppervlak bevond.

    ‘Jackie’ belde met het radioprogramma Coast to Coast AM en vroeg de presentator ‘een 27 jaar oud mysterie op te lossen’.

    Twee mensen

    Ze beweerde dat ze voor NASA had gewerkt en betrokken was bij het Vikingprogramma. Ze zei dat ze twee mensen op het Marsoppervlak had zien lopen.

    Ze zei dat ze samen met zes collega’s naar een aantal schermen zat te kijken toen ze plotseling twee mannen in ruimtepakken in de richting van de Viking zag lopen.

    “We waren met z’n zessen,” zei Jackie. “We hielden ons bezig met de apparatuur, toen plotseling het beeld op zwart ging.”

    Geheime landingen

    “We renden naar boven, maar ze hadden de deur op slot gedaan,” ging ze verder. “Ik vraag me af of het onze jongens waren.”

    Er gaan geruchten dat er in de jaren zestig ‘geheime’ landingen op Mars zijn geweest en dat de Apollo-landingen bedoeld waren om een veel uitgebreidere verkenning van het zonnestelsel geheim te houden.

    Voormalig CIA’er John Lear beweerde bijvoorbeeld dat NASA in 1966 op Mars is geland en dat mensen is geleerd hoe ze er konden wennen aan de dunne atmosfeer.

    Black flying disc UFO with blue lights spotted in New Mexico

    A witness in Ruidoso, New Mexico claims to have spotted a black disc-shaped UFO rimmed with blue lights near Ruidoso, New Mexico, according to a report submitted to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON). The witness provided a couple of drawings illustrating what was seen.

    The report was submitted on Thanksgiving Day, but was listed as being spotted on August 8, 2013. In the short description, the witness wrote: “Looked up to the sky, saw a black disc with dim blue lights on the edges, moved extremely fast.”

    The witness elaborated in the long description reproduced here verbatim:

    I was looking at the night sky, when suddenly a black disc with dim blue lights on the edges came across the night sky incredibly fast. It made no sound, and it dissapeared [sic] behind the horizon. This UFO was moving extremely fast, as it only took 2 seconds to cross the entire sky.

    Second witness drawing of object seen in New Mexico.

    Satellites and other objects, such as the International Space Station can be very bright and move at a quick steady pace across the sky, but these objects do not appear to be disc-shaped, nor do they have a ring of blue lights around them. If the object did appear the way this witness has described and drawn it, it would be mysterious indeed.

    The vast majority of UFO sightings turn out to be mundane objects, but once in awhile there are sightings that are much more difficult to explain. MUFON conducts investigations on sightings submitted to their website, and if they share their conclusions, we will let you all know. Meanwhile, others will likely chime in and we will try to keep you up to date with any discoveries. Please feel free to share your thoughts on this sighting in the comments below.

    Deze “buitenaardse vogels” veroorzaken paniek in India - HLN.be

    Bron: The Hans India


    In India hebben enkele bouwvakkers een stel vreemde vogels gefilmd tijdens werken op een scheepswerf in havenstad Visakhapatnam. De vogels zaten boven een toilet dat werd opengebroken. Op videobeelden is te zien hoe de dieren rechtop stonden en hen aanstaarden met grote, donkere ogen. De beelden gingen viraal en veroorzaakten paniek in het land, schrijft de krant The Hans India. Sommige kijkers spraken van “humanoïde aliens” omdat de vogels rechtop stonden. De werklui gaven de dieren fruit en groenten, maar de vogels lieten dat eten onaangeroerd. Niet verwonderlijk, want volgens kenners gaat het om jonge kerkuilen. En dat zijn roofdieren.

    ‘I saw humans walking on Mars’ reveals former NASA employee

    A former NASA employee says to have seen two human figures dressed in ‘space suits’ walking towards the Viking Lander on the surface of Mars.

    Apparently, the sheer number of images from Mars allegedly showing bones, structures, monuments with carvings, animals, or even rocks that appear as if they are moving, are no longer a surprise to the general public.

    Some call it disclosure, while others tag it as a giant conspiracy, but our attention was drawn to a former NASA employee who claims that in 1979 while working at NASA, she and her colleagues observed various ‘silhouettes of people’ on the surface of Mars while monitoring transmission from NASA Viking Rover mission.

    The woman, who referred to herself only as “Jackie” revealed her fascinating story speaking to  John Lear a former CIA pilot, ufologist, and popular conspiracy theorist.

    Jackie claimed that while working at NASA, she was in charge of managing the downlink telemetry from Viking.

    While observing a set of computers from the mission, she and her colleagues observed a number of silhouettes on Mars.

    Regrettably, all of this sounds as another Movie about Mars and nothing more, as the woman who claims she saw people on Mars has failed to provide images, recordings or any data for that matter to back up her claims.

    Speaking in an interview with Coast-to-Coast AM, Jackie spoke out about humans on Mars, which curiously is something that has been brought up by other former employees by NASA as well.

    “I wonder if you could solve a 27-year-old mystery for me,” she asked Coast-to-Coast AM.

    “That old Viking rover was running around. Then I saw two people in space suits – not the heavy suits we normally use, but they looked protective. They came over the horizon walking to the Viking Explorer.”

    “We ran upstairs – but they locked the door, and taped paper over the door so we couldn’t see,’ she said. ‘My question is – were they our guys?”

    According to John Lear, NASA landed on Mars in 1966, possibly to make repairs to the Viking rover.

    He claims that space suits were not even necessary because humans can adapt to breathe the Martian atmosphere.

    As noted by Metro, Lear also believes that human souls travel to the moon when they die and are ‘processed’ inside a mile-high tower and that the toxic, crushingly dense Venus is actually ‘green and beautiful.’

    However, let us not forget the sheer amount of statements that have been made by former astronauts, NASA employees, and military personnel on Mars and alien life.

    Senator Daniel K. Inouye said: “There is a shadowy government with its very own Air Force, its own Navy-like structure, its own fundraising mechanism, and has the ability to pursue its own ideas of the national interest, this government is free from all checks and balances, and free from the law itself.”

    Paul Hellyer, Former Canadian Defense Minister also claimed that: “Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about where we were headed and offered to help. But instead, we, or at least some of us, interpreted their visits as a threat and decided to shoot first and ask questions after… Trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on projects about which both the Congress and the Commander in Chief have been kept deliberately in the dark.” (Source)

    Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, former Chief of Defense Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee had some interesting things to say about Alien life in the universe:

    There are things in our atmosphere which are technically miles in advance of anything we can build today, that we have no means of stopping them coming here … [and] that there is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by beings from outer space, by other civilizations. That it behooves us, in case some of these people in the future or now should turn hostile, to find out who they are, where they come from, and what they want. This should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.” (Source)

    Black Disk Spotted During Flight to Gibraltar

    ufo-gibraltar

    Our next story takes us on a flight from Great Britain to Gibraltar. The event took place back on April 4th of this year. The witness to this event, who also submitted the media, says he was taking cloud photos through the aircraft window when he captured a flying black disk in two of the four photos he shot. In the video, you can clearly see the shape of a disk as was described by the shooter. The object looks like it moved from one photo to the next, but that could be movement of the aircraft as well. The witness says he looked through the window again after taking the photos and there was nothing there. The object had disappeared. The only evidence he had are the two photos.

    UFO Hunters Are Closely Monitoring the UFO Sighting Incident Over California

    california-ufo

    A UFO in the skies apparently above California is being featured in a video uploaded to YouTube channel SuspectSky.

    According to the uploader, the video was shot in Rowland Heights, just east of Los Angeles, California. It seemingly shows a small white craft being followed by a larger flying object.

    The clip titled “Large Black UFO with Another Leading Object Seen in California” shows the two objects moving over the mountain range. The incident reportedly took place on October 24.

    The man behind the camera was apparently taking the footage while driving. He says in the video that if it is an airplane, it is moving very quickly.

    He adds that after seeing the UFO, he had to make a U-turn to come back and see it. In his description, the UFO looked like a cigar shape at first, but it eventually looked like a saucer.

    Some viewers of the video were convinced it is an unidentified flying object of extraterrestrial origin.

    One person wrote that the smaller object in front of the black one is not right and it looks like a UFO.

    Another one added the white object might have been a regular passenger plane, but the black one might have been a UFO as it is too fat to be a plane.

    However, others have more plausible explanations.

    One person said that the scene only involves a plane pulling an advertisement behind it. The commenter added that nothing is suspicious or suspect about it.

    Others believed it could be a Chinook helicopter as it appears to have double blades.

    GOOGLE MAPS street view captures all sorts of unusual sights, and alien hunters are just one group who comb the images for clues of extraterrestrial life.

    Google Maps and Google Earth have photographed something many believe to be a UFO.

    A mysterious shape in the middle of a field has sparked questions.

    Situated in Australia at coordinates 30°30'38.44"S 115°22'56.03"E is a large triangle with bright lights evenly placed around it.

    The triangle has baffled and excited UFO enthusiasts since it was first discovered in 2007.

    Some think it is an antenna that forms part of a nearby remote-controlled wind farm

    Many were quick to claim it was a “triangle UFO” which had been captured hovering above Earth.

    However, there may be a less spooky explanation for the shape.

    Some think it is an antenna that forms part of a nearby remote-controlled wind farm.

    With three sets of wires forming the triangle shape, and a tower in the middle, the antenna likely receives and transmits control signals.

    Cassini Image Mosaic: A Farewell to Saturn

    After more than 13 years at Saturn, and with its fate sealed, NASA's Cassini spacecraft bid farewell to the Saturnian system by firing the shutters of its wide-angle camera and capturing this last, full mosaic of Saturn and its rings two days before the spacecraft's dramatic plunge into the planet's atmosphere.
    Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute

    In a fitting farewell to the planet that had been its home for over 13 years, the Cassini spacecraft took one last, lingering look at Saturn and its splendid rings during the final leg of its journey and snapped a series of images that has been assembled into a new mosaic. 

    Cassini’s wide-angle camera acquired 42 red, green and blue images, covering the planet and its main rings from one end to the other, on Sept. 13, 2017. Imaging scientists stitched these frames together to make a natural color view. The scene also includes the moons Prometheus, Pandora, Janus, Epimetheus, Mimas and Enceladus.

    There is much to remember and celebrate in marking the end of the mission. Cassini's exploration of Saturn and its environs was deep, comprehensive and historic.

    "Cassini’s scientific bounty has been truly spectacular -- a vast array of new results leading to new insights and surprises, from the tiniest of ring particles to the opening of new landscapes on Titan and Enceladus, to the deep interior of Saturn itself," said Robert West, Cassini's deputy imaging team leader at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.

    The Cassini imaging team had been planning this special farewell view of Saturn for years. For some, when the end finally came, it was a difficult goodbye.

    "It was all too easy to get used to receiving new images from the Saturn system on a daily basis, seeing new sights, watching things change," said Elizabeth Turtle, an imaging team associate at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, Maryland. "It was hard to say goodbye, but how lucky we were to be able to see it all through Cassini's eyes!"

    NASA’s Voyager 1 probe captured this image of Saturn and its rings on Nov. 16, 1980, four days after closest approach to Saturn, from a distance of 3.3 million miles (5.3 million kilometers). This viewing geometry, which shows Saturn as a crescent, is never achieved from Earth.

    For others, Cassini's farewell to Saturn is reminiscent of another parting from long ago.

    "For 37 years, Voyager 1's last view of Saturn has been, for me, one of the most evocative images ever taken in the exploration of the solar system," said Carolyn Porco, former Voyager imaging team member and Cassini's imaging team leader at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado. "In a similar vein, this 'Farewell to Saturn' will forevermore serve as a reminder of the dramatic conclusion to that wondrous time humankind spent in intimate study of our Sun's most iconic planetary system."

    The team carefully planned every aspect of its termination, to expend every last bit of its propellant and crash the spacecraft into Saturn itself – where it would burn up in the atmosphere, and ensure it didn’t accidentally contaminate the ‘pristine’ moons Enceladus and Titan, which have shown potential to support microbial life

    Launched in 1997, the Cassini spacecraft orbited Saturn from 2004 to 2017. The mission made numerous dramatic discoveries, including the surprising geologic activity on Saturn's moon Enceladus and liquid methane seas on Saturn's largest moon, Titan. Cassini ended its journey with a dramatic plunge into Saturn's atmosphere on Sept. 15, 2017, returning unique science data until it lost contact with Earth.

    The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, ESA (European Space Agency) and the Italian Space Agency. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of Caltech in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging team consists of scientists from the U.S., England, France, and Germany. The imaging operations center and team leader are based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

    The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, ESA (European Space Agency) and the Italian Space Agency. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of Caltech in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging team consists of scientists from the U.S., England, France, and Germany. The imaging operations center and team leader are based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

    NASA’s Operation IceBridgethe airborne mission flown annually over both polar regions to map the ice—is now in its ninth year making flights over Antarctica. A few flights during the 2017 campaign took scientists and instruments over the newly reshaped Larsen C ice shelf.

    “It takes a long time to process the data from IceBridge instruments that show changes to the ice, and many of these changes are small,” said Nathan Kurtz, IceBridge project scientist. “That’s why we have instruments on the plane, so that we can detect smaller changes than we can see with our eyes.”

    But occasionally, big changes are observed. “One of the biggest changes is the calving of an iceberg from the Larsen C ice shelf,” Kurtz said. “We observed the crack across the shelf during the campaign last year; it has since broken through and produced a huge iceberg.”

    The iceberg from Larsen C, named A-68A, was photographed during a flight on November 12, 2017. John Sonntag, IceBridge mission scientist, shot the photo from a window of the P-3 research plane. The flight aimed to get a better understanding the Larsen system as a whole, and scientists made gravity measurements to “see” the shape of the seafloor and bedrock below the ice.

    The second image is a photograph acquired by the Digital Mapping System (DMS) during the same flight. The DMS is essentially a downward-looking digital camera pointed out a window on the belly of the aircraft. This image shows part of the giant iceberg’s edge (the side closest to the shelf) and open water.

    Estimates indicate that the edges of the shelf and iceberg tower about 30 meters above the surface of the sea. Some mélange appears attached to the iceberg, and blocks of ice have fallen away giving the berg’s edge giving it an angular appearance.
