This Is Obviously Not The Worst Consequence Of Climate Change, But I Often Find Myself Mourning For The

this is obviously not the worst consequence of climate change, but i often find myself mourning for the death of seasons as we know them, particularly around this time of year

like, it’s going to be 80 degrees this weekend where i live. when i was a kid i don’t remember it being so warm so late in the year. recently, whenever the weather matches my idea of the what it should be, i feel grateful for having a moment of normality. but how many more “normal” seasons do we have left? how many more halloweens will it dip below 70 degrees? how often will we have snow for christmas? will there be any summers when colorado and california aren’t constantly on fire?

and of course we need to take action and our government needs to stop being complicit in the harm that oil companies are doing, but even if we meet our goals and do everything right, the climate will remain changed for the near future. that doesn’t mean we should just give up, but the consequences are already here and just can’t go away.

there are obviously far worse consequences than not being able to wear a sweater in october. but the mundane loss of the little things that shaped our understanding of the world since we were kids can still hurt.

لقد ذكرت هذا مسبقا على الارجح لكنني سأذكره مجددا:

لا تعتذر لعدم قدرتك على التحدث الانجليزية

نعم إنها اللغة الاكثر رواجا على الانترنت لكنك لست مجبرا التحدث بها بطلاقة

للغتك الام جمالها الخاص

الناس الذين لا يتكلمون الانجليزية يقومون بمجهودات فائقة عندما يعبرون بالانجليزية على هذا الموقع

شجعوا اللغات الاخرى و متكلميها و لا تحبطونهم إن اقترفوا خطئا ما

شجعوا كل اللغات

وجعلوا كل اللغات رائجة على تمبلر

شكرا جزيلا

probably i just said it but i want to say it again:

- don’t apologise if you don’t know english.

- yes, english is the most common language on the internet but you are not forced to know it perfectly.

- your own language is beautiful.

- non-english people make a huge effort to write in English everyday on this website.

- support non-english people and don’t make them feel bad if they do not know English. 

- actually support all the languages.

- spread more language diversity on Tumblr.

thank you.

5 Space Software Codes We Can Use on Earth

We’ve made some amazingly advanced software for our space missions, from launching rockets to the International Space Station to landing rovers on Mars. But a lot of that software can be applied to other situations here on the ground. We’ve got hundreds of downloadable programs in the NASA Software Catalog available for public use—and they’re all free.

We’ve rounded up five interesting software programs to get your search started.

1. Take a walk on Mars from your living room

Want to walk around Mars from the comfort of your living room? OnSight can help with that. Our engineers and scientists created this mixed reality software to immerse themselves in a visualization of the terrain around the Curiosity rover, so users feel like they are really walking on the Red Planet. The software can be adapted to visualize other locations, which means it could also help us explore places on Earth, like caves and lava fields. No wonder it was awarded NASA’s 2018 Software of the Year! 

2. Enhancing images from space and the doctor’s office

image

It’s hard to take a perfect picture from space. That’s why our scientists created the Hierarchical Image Segmentation software program – to help us enhance and analyze images taken of Earth from space by the Landsat and Terra missions. But, that isn’t all it can do. Doctors have used the software to analyze medical images, such as X-rays, ultrasounds and mammography images, to reveal important details previously unseen by the human eye.

3. Video game tech helps our engineers build spaceflight hardware

image

Installing sensitive spaceflight hardware is hardly a time for fun and games. Except when it comes to the Distributed Observer Network, or DON 3.1. This software combines innovative NASA tools with commercial video game technology to train our employees for stressful tasks – like maneuvering important, delicate tools through tight spots when building instruments or spacecraft. DON can be used in many other industries, particularly for overcoming the challenges that face virtual teams collaborating on complex problems.

4. Software helps protect Earth from space junk

image

Those of us on the ground may imagine space as a peaceful place to float among the stars, but in reality, Earth’s atmosphere is filled with junk. This space debris can cause damage to spacecraft and satellites, including the International Space Station. That’s where the Orbital Debris Engineering Model software program comes in. Thanks to this NASA software, we can study the risks of debris impact to help us protect our orbiting equipment and – more importantly – our planet. Communication companies could use this software to prevent debris damage when launching satellites, saving them a lot of time and money.

5. From exploration missions to your office, this software keeps projects on track

image

Do you manage complex projects at work? There are a lot of steps and moving pieces in play when it comes to getting a spacecraft from the launchpad into space. Used during the space shuttle missions, the Schedule Test and Assessment Tool 5.0 add-on works with Microsoft Project to automate project data to help us stay on track. It’s one of the more popular programs in our software catalog because it provides quick, clear assessment info that can help with decision making.

These are just a few examples of the software NASA has free and available for the public. To browse the new 2019-2020 catalog online, visit https://software.nasa.gov/.

When the protestors fuck up and nearly kill three black women, along with burning three buildings owned by black people. Can't say it's blm when you're actively ruining the lives of POC who had to work harder and longer to even HAVE a place like that because those positions are much easier for white people to get. Like? Burn the police cars. Go after the police. Fucking hurt them if you want, it's not like they're going to hesitate to hurt you. However, stop ruining buisness. You're putting essential workers, most of which who live paycheck to paycheck, out of work in a time it is hard to get a job. You are hurting black people too, because believe it or not, although it is less common, one of the requirements to own a buisness isn't being white. So? Riot, cause chaos, make your voice heard, but please keep in mind when you attack and burn places that a black person could end up homeless because of you. If I'm wrong saying this as a white person, please let me know. I'll take it down.

One time in grade 11 I got every answer correct on a math test and the teacher failed it because I didn't use the method we learned in class and it's been nearly ten years and I'm still angry. I'm going to raise my children to fuck the system
