Human Rights and Neurotechnology

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

Imagine the technology existed to either measure or manipulate your brain activity without your consent. Understandably, this would seem uncomfortable at best, and total infringement of human rights at worst. Perhaps this future isn't too far off because a paper recently published in Life Sciences, Society, and Policy explores the idea of expanding human rights to include our cognitive processes. In the expanding world of neuroscience and neurotechnology, it's worth thinking about how we'll

What Can We Learn from Sunglint?

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

It's amazing what you can learn from a picture. Take, for instance, this shot taken by NASA's Terra Satellite. It is of the Arabian Sea near Oman. The Sun can easily be seen reflecting off the still water of the sea back to the satellite, a phenomenon known as called 'sunglint.' But what about the dark, snake-like feature stretching through the middle of the reflection? Turns out... it's choppy water! The wind churns the water slightly, making it not as reflective as still water. Using an image

Groundbreaking for the World's Largest Telescope's Headquarters

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

The Square Kilometer Array (SKA) will be a network of radio telescopes spanning the entire globe. Together, the thousands of telescopes will add to 1 square kilometer of collecting area. While the project isn't set to have first light (read: turn the telescope on for the first time) until the 2020s, the SKA Organization broke ground on a new Head Quarters April 28, 2017. The HQ will be located next to the Jodrell Bank Observatory in Lower Withington, UK. This is a major step forward in the

Batagaika Crater Expands

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

The Batagaika Crater is not a crater at all, but a depression in northern Russia. It is being caused by the thawing of permafrost, and depressions like this are occurring all over the north. Batagaika is by far the largest depression. Its erosion has been documented by satellites, and now appears to have doubled in area since 1999. While depressions like this are a result of climate change, they also allow scientists to easily study things that were once buried.

Cassini Dives Closest to Saturn's Atmosphere Ever

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

The NASA/ESA Cassini spacecraft completed its first of 22 dives between the planet Saturn and its ring system; no spacecraft has ever flown that trajectory before. During the pass by the rings, Cassini was out of radio contact. Upon regaining communications, Cassini sent back an image of Saturn, the closest of the planet ever taken. Cassini will continue to dive closer and closer to the atmosphere of Saturn until it ultimately burns up on September 15th, 2017.

The cygnus spacecraft approaches the International Space Station

The Cygnus Capsule on Approach to the ISS

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

On Wednesday April 19, 2017, Orbital ATK's 7th resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS) launched from Cape Canaveral. The Cygnus cargo module was launched atop an Atlas V rocket with over 7600 lbs of supplies and science equipment. Three days later, the module got close enough to the ISS for European Space Agency's (ESA) Thomas Presquet to take this image of the Cygnus capsule on approach. Just a bit later, Presquet and ISS Commader Peggy Whitson used CanadArm to secure the

Dr. Elizabeth Cannon

Elizabeth Cannon aims for new heights in satellite navigation

Dr. Elizabeth Cannon has a passion for accuracy, and it’s this fervour that led her creativity and penchant for mathematics to make Canada a leader in satellite navigation. From agriculture to aerospace, Cannon has contributed much to the science of navigation and continues to do so. Today, Cannon is the president and vice-chancellor of the University of Calgary, as well as the chair of Universities Canada. She started her career at Acadia University, graduating with a B.Sc in mathematics and

The Dark Chasm of Tethys

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

The NASA/ESA Mission to Saturn, the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft, snapped this shot of the moon Tethys, a 1000 km wide moon of Saturn. Featured in the lower right is Ithaca Chasm. This canyon is about 100 km wide and 2000 km long; it stretches nearly 75% around the moon itself.

Comet Lovejoy with a bright green nucleus and long white, whispy cometary tail.

Comet Lovejoy's Massive Ion Tail

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

This image taken by Fritz Helmut Hemmerich captures Comet Lovejoy in all its brilliance. Discovered only in March by Terry Lovejoy, and just finished making its closest approach to the Sun two days ago. Now it's on its long journey back to the outer solar system.

Peggy Whitson: the USA Astronaut with the Most Flight Hours

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

NASA Astronaut Peggy Whitson has broken the record for cumulative time spent in space by a United States astronaut at 534 days, 2 hours, 49 minutes, and counting. When she returns to Earth in September 2017, she will have spent 650 days in space.
