ENTER THE BABY BLACK HOLE EXIT THE INTERMEDIATE BLACK HOLE

Here is an interesting example of when what was commonly believed suddenly and unexpectedly gets turned on its head.

A smaller black hole than they thought possible has sprung up during research on a distant galaxy 100 million light years away. They them mentioned that the intermediate black holes they thought were common have yet to be found and wondered if they ever would. Insinuating that they may not exist.

This is quite fascinating and I must get back into researching my love affair with astronomy. I find it quite intriguing that it could turn out that between these tiny and small black holes and that if sort massive black holes at galactic centres no others exist!

Hmm there is quite possibly a tool I could buy, oh ok gadget, that could help me possibly start reading again.

I love reading but in recent years I have found this to be difficult. Christ Webern sitting still and focusing has not been without its own problems.

However as well as apologising on a number of blogs I have on different subjects that I have on different subjects I can also now declare that I finally know why.

I have had a long running battle with an NHS that simply did everything but diagnose me. After my own wrong self diagnosis of Charcot Marie Tooth Disease I now realise that I suffer with Fibromyalgia. Oddly as well as explaining ask my physical difficulties it also explains my difficulty focusing on things, short term memory problems and a few other things I never dreamed could be linked together. Well I've had three dozen NHS so called health professionals tell me there is no condition to link even my physical pains. I currently now know of two both of which I have listed here.

I also apologise for the inundation of adverts and declare that due to a problem between between Google's Chrome, Goggle's Adsense and their refusal to speak to you unless they are making a mint I was not aware this had happened. The pop up blocker turned out to be curiously hiding the ads when I was in the design layout if the screen. This was kindly suggested as a possibility by someone on a forum which turned out to be spot on.

Thank you for nothing Google, lol.

CROWDED EXTRA SOLAR SYSTEM

Well it had been awhile since I posted in here! There are reasons and I will not get into them right now.

But there has been done very exciting announcements in the world of Astronomy and this one in particular spurred me into writing a post!

Would be a lot easier off the blogger ago was any good but it is not and difficult and badly designed.

So we have a solar system based on a dwarf star with seven planets found so far and interestingly all of which are closer to the host star than those in our own solar system?!

I long to know the mechanics of planetary positions thought different ages and phases of a solar system. I have long wondered if the possibility that the planets within a system get pushed out and pulled in when a star shifts from one phase to another. Like our own Sun, Solar, going from its yellow current phase to a red giant? Or a red giant turning into a dwarf star and do on and so forth.

This would obviously be different for certain star systems because, dependent on the mass of the host star, they might not reach certain stages. For instance a brown dwarf star is really a start that failed so could be argued is not a star at all. Our Sun well not turn into a black hole and so on and so forth.

Over time as more systems are discovered that play host to a planetary system and each of these bodies with there mass, size and position pinpointed a pattern, or patterns, should start to emerge? Maybe they already are add the number of planets known outside the solar system recently shot quickly to over 1000!

Very cool indeed and I cannot wait fir the James Webb Telescope to be raised into its eventual orbit! Not only will the objects know be quite high by then but this telescope will increase their discovery at a vastly increased rate. It should also provide more in the way of detail and data too?!

Good times, or at least will be soon and I must remember to have a look to see if there are any books specifically on Exoplanets?

MORPHING METAL CUBES

...umm blocks in disguise?!

Lol.

Another discovery are these self assembling blocks that can be parted and they then recognise each other, close in to each other and self assemble?!

Johnny Five will be sleeping a lot better from now on?! Lol.

To get an idea think, not literally mind you, of the liquid that made up the bad guy Terminator played by Robert Patrick, I think his name is, where it gathers together after being blown apart.

Gadgets that fix themselves?! I want a remote control helicopter built with these?! Well maybe in several years when they have shrunk down to a hundredth of their current size...at a guess, lol.

MORPHING METAL STRUCTURES

...ROBOTS IN DISGUISE!! Lol.

Well this is a really exciting discovery! Yes despite everything I mentioned and have as well as am being put through on a certain other blog I can STILL get excited about breakthroughs in science!

Now along with a couple of previous discoveries, one being Graphene, and another to follow this blog I think we may be on the verge of a new era?!

Memory metal that does not suffer fatigue from overuse?! Can be quite thin and combined with Graphene...well dreamy and world changing in its potential!!

I remember from couple years back they also improved the solar cell four fold, though not seen evidence of its availability yet commercially.

Nano-bots and robotics have been taking leaps forward and clear acrylics as strong  as steal, derivatives no doubt used on smart phones?! 

Many imaginations will be running riot before very long and a whole heap of previously thought of as science fiction will become science fact in a short space of time! Within the next five years if idiot governments and military regimes stop meddling for power, control and money that is, lol.

Here is a link...


Now for the next one seen on the same evening...

NOT QUITE MARS BEST GUESS

I have often wondered about the establishing of the gas elements that make up the atmosphere of an Exoplanet.

I have also repeatedly warned of seemingly good ideas being wrong.

So here is an article that the expected discovery of the gas Methane on Mars has not been detected by the Discovery Rover. At least the maximum that can exist is only a tiny fraction of that which was predicted. 

Not a case of best guess being wrong but best guess with TESTS being wrong!

Still it is the process we go through to reach the facts.

AWAITING NEW TOOLS

I have been waiting an inordinate amount of time for two deliveries to arrive. One of these is a book on Astrophotography but I knew this was coming from America while the other is a lens hood with three different stages, or positions, to it.

I wondered whether or not the hood may have been coming from America too as after a week when it did not arrive I checked the order and the estimated delivery date seemed to be within 24 hours, plus or minus, the date given for the book.

These dates were last Friday and Saturday and as it is now Tuesday I am pretty sure that these will arrive this week FOUR SURE, as my Dutch friends used to say.

I am quite interested in both these arriving and doing a fair bit of reading and then some experimenting. I want to see if the hood makes any difference to the pictures taken with the longer exposures.

Fingers crossed it does, lol.

FIRST PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE MOON

Right now here is my first few pictures of the Moon which I did hand held basically because I saw the satellite for the first time in a fair old while.

It was late too so I ran downstairs grabbed the camera and returned, opened up the bedroom window as wide as I can and then pointed through the gap!

Note that it was interesting to see that at full size I managed to pick up a great deal of STARS!!

The photos of the further away Moon are taken at 50x optical Zoom while the closer ones are at 100x Digital, purely for curiosity purposes only.
