This post is about discovery (observation) of a radio burst from a long dead NASA satellite. The detective work that identified the source of the radio signal is impressive in it's own right, but the radio telescopes brought into the investigation are impressive as well. A telescope designed to detect radio bursts from distant galaxies observed a bright flash from something close to the Earth, and it took quite an effort to identify the source, and then to work out the most likely cause.

Long-dead satellite emits strong radio signal, puzzling astronomers

The ASKAP radio telescope in Western Australia picked up a powerful radio signal from a NASA satellite that stopped working in 1967. Alex Cherney/CSIRO

—
Astronomers in Australia picked up a strange radio signal in June 2024 — one near our planet and so powerful that, for a moment, it outshined everything else in the sky. The ensuing search for its source has sparked new questions around the growing problem of debris in Earth’s orbit.At first, though, the researchers thought they were observing something exotic.
“We got all excited, thinking we had discovered an unknown object in the vicinity of the Earth,” said Clancy James, an associate professor at Curtin University’s Curtin Institute of Radio Astronomy in Western Australia.
The data James and his colleagues were looking at came from the ASKAP radio telescope, an array of 36 dish antennas in Wajarri Yamaji Country, each about three stories tall. Normally, the team would be searching the data for a type of signal called a “fast radio burst” — a flash of energy blasting forth from distant galaxies.
“These are incredibly powerful explosions in radio (waves) that last about a millisecond,” James said. “We don’t know what’s producing them, and we’re trying to find out, because they really challenge known physics — they’re so bright. We’re also trying to use them to study the distribution of matter in the universe.”
Astronomers believe these bursts may come from magnetars, according to James. These objects are very dense remnants of dead stars with powerful magnetic fields. “Magnetars are utterly, utterly insane,” James said. “They’re the most extreme things you can get in the universe before something turns into a black hole.”

Because of the onslaught of thousands upon thousands of spammers over 20+ years, the decision was made to close off access to inactive accounts. Unfortunately, the only mechanism available is the "banning" tool. If you are an older member and you find your account has been banned, it may have been locked to prevent hacker access. You can ask SpaceNut to reactivate the account. See the procedure below. Those who were banned for inappropriate behavior may also apply. SpaceNut will then have the opportunity to evaluate your application.
SpaceNut is in the process of upgrading members from "banned" to inActive. Since there are over 1000 folks caught up in this situation due to the spammers, it is going to take SpaceNut a while to complete the upgrade.

In the context of Void's vision, of providing power to one of JP Aerospace's designs for a space going balloon, I would like to offer the suggestion that the balloon might be shaped like a wing so that the underside is large enough to hold acres of rectenna devices, while at the same time having a shape well suited for deflecting molecules downward as they are encountered during flight.
In John Powell's design, the balloon that flies to space will never descend lower than a base station at a very high altitude.
Void's suggestion for use of microwaves to beam power might provide a convenient way to provide power for the high altitude station. The difference in that case is that the balloon would be stationary.
A related application for such a high altitude station is the ability to provide communications or observation services.

This topic of Calliban's seems appropriate for a post about the educational offerings of the University of Colorado...

We have many topics that contain the word Asteroid... This one seems as good a fit as any of them, for this reply from a member of a web site where Astronomical calculations are available to the public. I had inquired about animation showing how an asteroid approaching a planet might behave. At the time I did not realize how weak gravity is on a short time scale. On long time scales gravity rules the Universe, but on short time scales such as an asteroid passing a planet, not so much.

to meHi Thomas,
I got in touch with our My Solar System developer, and here is his response:
Unfortunately, asteroid capture situations require some sort of deceleration in the system, such as atmospheric breaking or another moon's tug. Otherwise, due to conservation of energy, anything that flies into the system will also fly out. Maybe there is a way if the asteroid flies into a Planet-Moon system (such as Earth, or Jupiter), but not any that I'm aware of.
As for Mars, which seems to be your interest, we have no way of simulating a Phobos or Deimos capture with our sim. Which raises the question on how they were captured in the first place, if Mars has such a thin atmosphere, and that's still an open research issue.

If it helps, I made a Double-Moon PhET Studio preset, which I don't know if the public can use yet:

Or adding a 4th body in Planet-Moon with these presets:
Hope this helps and happy to discuss further, it's a pretty interesting inquiry!!
All the best,
Oliver

to Tom, phethelpFor Oliver!
First, thank you for taking the time to prepare the helpful reply to my inquiry. It fits well with the guidance I have received from others. The fundamental clarification (for me) was how weak gravity is over short time scales. Gravity is the ultimate ruler over vast time scales, but not as much of an influence as I had imagined, when time scales are short.I am planning to post your reply, and I hope a few members are inspired to visit your site!
The web site itself is phet@colorado.edu
I'll post separately about the site. >> See Education topic of Calliban

We are happy to welcome former members back into the active community. It has been brought to my attention that a number of former members are marked as "banned". In many cases, this marking is a limitation of FluxBB, which is the forum software.
Because of the onslaught of thousands upon thousands of spammers over 20+ years, the decision was made to close off access to inactive accounts. Unfortunately, the only mechanism available is the "banning" tool. If you are an older member and you find your account has been banned, it may have been locked to prevent hacker access. You can ask SpaceNut to reactivate the account. See the procedure below. Those who were banned for inappropriate behavior may also apply. SpaceNut will then have the opportunity to evaluate your application.
SpaceNut is in the process of upgrading members from "banned" to inActive. Since there are over 1000 folks caught up in this situation due to the spammers, it is going to take SpaceNut a while to complete the upgrade.
