NASA Unveils First-Ever Global Maps of Earth’s Surface Minerals

Letzteres Jahr wurde #EMIT an der #ISS installiert, um #Emissionen von #THG wie #Methan und #CO2 aufzuspüren.
EMIT fand in #Asien und #Nahost mehrere große Emissionsstellen, die in den nationalen Budgets nicht auftauchen.
Die größten Methanemittenten Zentralasiens sind #Turkmenistan, #Iran und #Kasachstan.

Solche #Emissionslügner weltweit zu enttarnen ist dringend nötig, darf aber natürlich nicht von unserer #Eigenverantwortung ablenken.

NASA’S #EMIT mission, placed on the International Space Station to learn how dust storms on Earth warm or cool the planet, has created the first complete maps of the world’s dust source regions, providing precise locations of 10 key minerals based on how they reflect and absorb light: https://www.psi.edu/blog/nasa-emit-instrument-maps-global-airborne-mineral-dust/

NASA-instrument aan boord ISS ziet meer dan 750 bronnen van broeikasgassen

Het EMIT-instrument van de NASA, oorspronkelijk gebouwd om mineralen in kaart te brengen, overtreft alle verwachtingen.

Study found #injured #plants #emit certain #chemicalcompounds which can infiltrate a healthy plant’s inner tissues and activate #defenses from within its cells. A better understanding of this mechanism could allow #scientists and #farmers to help fortify plants against #insect attacks or #drought long before they happen. study marks 1st x researchers have been able to visualize plant-to-plant communication https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-41589-9 #ClimateCrisis #farming #agriculture

If we don't emit
Love we're like the walking dead,
Zombies in disguise.

For 17th Dec

Loud, guttural snores
emitted by my husband
wake and comfort me.

#Mastoprompt #Emit

I wish I could write something for you
My pages are not what you expect
I do not have the wings that you seek
The flow, the finesse
I am too rough. My mouth opens
Emitting dark moths
And I am sorry for it
Love hopes for rainbows
For luminous butterflies
And perhaps you wish for that
Your smile fracturing when
Your love goes crooked
Malfunctioning
I know you need other
Not another, as you believe
That you need me
It’s all a lie, in the end

The smoke stands still
Frozen in the night sky
Emitted but yet paralysed
Spilt across the darkness

A blot on the landscape
That cannot be erased
Until the morning hand
Wipes it from our sight

So the Birdsite still emits
fart sounds from its armpits
Frankly, I don't give two shits
I'm just glad I called it quits

#MastoPrompt

#SmallPoems

As the night falls and the stars emit
Their soft and subtle light,
I can't help but feel a sense of it
This melancholy that fills my mind.

The memories of what once was
Now only bring a sense of fuss
I try to hold on to the good
But it's hard when I feel misunderstood

So I'll let the rain continue to emit
The sound of my heart's melancholy fit
And maybe someday the sun will shine
And I'll be able to leave this sorrow behind.

Mastoprompt for 17 Dec 2022: emit

The pair turn around each other, locked in a spinning dance which the little white one leads. The dark one emits flashes with extreme precision – more accurate than our most exact atomic clock.

Abbé Nicolas-Louis de Lacaille named its frame "le Chevalet et la Palette" in 1756.

That is the story our people tell, from this seat in the infinite. Of the beacon, others may tell a different tale.

First light
thick frost-fur
snow-white
out there
Baltic cold
until the sky blues
brass-bold
in brazen hues
and gold spews
sun from between
crimped claws
of grass-green.

Mark radiated positivity, a beacon of hope and optimism in a world of cynicism and negativity. He would emit a positive aura far and wide, always the life of the party and never a bad word to say about anyone.

We'd known each other since we were awkward kids in the school yard, two odd shaped peas in a pod. He'd been kept back a year in school as he'd been quite unwell, a mystery illness that would plague him throughout his life, often in and out of hospital. This never got him down, a resilience that was testament to his character.

We became the best of friends.

I enjoyed his company immensely, spending our formative years getting into all kinds of mischief together. I was welcomed with open arms into his home, spending many an afternoon tormenting his younger sibling and eating a banquet of food that his Italian mother laid out, for fear of our pending malnutrition.

As we grew up, we became further entwined in each other's lives. He was with me at every milestone of my life. A best man at my wedding and a godfather to my firstborn son. A brother, not in blood but we had a bond that ran even deeper.

The phonecall on that fateful summers night absolutely broke me.

I'm still picking up the pieces.

I walk through the park over frozen grounds in the sunshine and everything seems to #emit light. Only it does not seem to reach me.

Later, I realise this is because it has nothing to log onto as I have turned off my own light.

It was not even because the pain was too big (albeit it seems to be, at times). It was to please the people around me.

I know better than that, now.
