What a faff around. When I went back to an older build of Windows 10 the camera connected but I then found I couldn't delay updates so reinstalled the newer version (1903) and found my camera did connect - however!!! the time after that the camera failed to connect again and a message appeared telling me there was an error with the Artemis capture software and to try reinstalling. I did that and all seems ok. Just waiting for the next clear night!! What a hobby!
I've read on All Sky Plate Solver site that this software is "designed to automatically detect the celestial coordinates of FITS and JPEG files captured by your ccd camera / reflex". So I guess I have to capture a part of the sky with my camera, pass the FIT file to the program and then what?
The collaboration between NASA and ESA exemplifies the global effort and shared excitement in advancing space exploration technology, with the HULC poised to capture the next iconic images of our celestial journeys.
Property Claim Services (PCS) is to provide greater transparency for U.S. catastrophe loss estimates via the delivery of state-level market share data capture rates for U.S. events with insured losses of at least $1 billion.
PCS, a Verisk Analytics business, says that its state-level market share data capture rates for qualifying catastrophe events in the U.S., provides increased transparency to benefit the entire risk, capital and reinsurance supply chain.
PCS states that the process will commence for all qualifying cat events that are currently open for resurvey, with the market share capture rates being published at the same time as the next scheduled update for each individual event.
I capture video with lossless UYVY codec and in Video Enhance I save it with Mov ProRes 422, at the end I want to convert to x265, preferable with Handbrake (or any other software you might recommend?).
Hi,
You should capture interlaced video as doing this on the fly is throwing away information that will provide better results later on (and important for preservation). Capture in ProRes for best results.
"Orion uses the optical navigation camera to capture imagery of the Earth and the moon at different phases and distances, providing an enhanced body of data to certify its effectiveness under different lighting conditions as a way to help orient the spacecraft on future missions with crew," NASA said in a caption alongside the photos.
The uncrewed spacecraft made its closest flyby of the lunar surface early on Monday, passing 81 miles above the moon, per NASA. As it approached, Orion captured this photo. During the flyby, the capsule was more than 230,000 miles away from Earth.
The photos and videos that Orion will capture will come in a variety of formats, ranging from standard definition to upwards of 4K. NASA says each is tailored for a specific use and take into consideration available bandwidth since the footage needs to be sent back to Earth, but all footage is also stored onboard the spacecraft for retrieval after Orion returns.
In the not-so-distant future, when Artemis III astronauts touch down near the South Pole of the Moon, they will be equipped with a state-of-the-art handheld camera designed to capture the lunar landscape in breathtaking detail.
The standalone mechanical Hasselblad cameras used during the Apollo missions captured a total of 1,407 photos. In contrast, Artemis III is poised to collect an even greater number of images, not for mere sightseeing but primarily for scientific purposes.
Microphone array near rocket crawlerway at Kennedy Space Center, about 1.5 km from the Artemis I launch pad. A BYU research team captured high-fidelity audio recordings of the launch on Nov. 16 from Cape Canaveral, Fla.

On the rocket, four cameras around the engine section pointed up toward Orion, two cameras at the intertank by the top of boosters were sited for booster separation, and two cameras were placed on the launch vehicle stage adapter to capture core stage separation. The eight cameras cycled through a preprogrammed sequence during launch and ascent.
"Inside the spacecraft, three more wireless cameras can capture the perspectives astronauts will have on future Artemis missions, with one camera looking out the front pilot window and a second looking over the shoulder of the commander seat, where the instrument panel will be located on future missions," details NASA. "A third in-cabin camera will look out the top hatch window to provide views of launch abort system jettison during ascent as well as parachute deployment during landing and recovery."
Euripides says Heracles slew the hind and brought it to Artemis for propitiation.[5] Another tradition says he captured it with nets while it was sleeping or that he ran it down,[6] while another says he shot and maimed it with an arrow just before it crossed the river Ladon.[2] Once Heracles captured the hind, and only after explaining to Artemis and Apollo ("who would have wrested the hind from him"[2]) that he had only hurt the sacred hind out of necessity, was he allowed to take it alive to Eurystheus in Mycenae, thus completing his third labour.[2]
Primary immunodeficiencies are genetic disorders in which components of immunological pathways are either missing or dysregulated. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, testing for genes in conditions with a heterogeneous genetic background seems more promising. We designed a custom microarray with 385K probe capacity to capture exons of 395 human genes, known or predicted to be associated with primary immunodeficiency and immune regulation. Enriched target DNA was sequenced using a GS FLX Titanium 454 platform. The patients selected were likely to have an underlying immunodeficiency. In one patient with hepatosplenomegaly, recurrent infections and an elevated IgM level, sequence analysis of the patient and his two unaffected parents identified ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated) as the underlying defect. In a second child with a clinical SCID phenotype, we detected a mutation in the ARTEMIS gene after focusing on SCID-associated genes. 454 sequencing yielded 152,000-397,000 high-quality reads per patient. 78-99% of the targeted nucleotides were covered at least one time, 76-82% at least five times. Array-based sequence capture expands our capacities to sequence large targeted DNA regions in a less laborious and time-consuming approach. Our array was capable to find the underlying genetic defect in two patients with suspected primary immunodeficiency. Upcoming whole-exome sequencing definitely will add more valuable data, but bioinformatical analysis and validation of variants already pose major challenges.
THE ELAPHOS KERYNITIS (Cerynitian Hind) was a golden-horned deer sacred to the goddess Artemis. Herakles was sent to fetch it as one of his twelve labours. After chasing the animal for a full year he finally captured it on Mount Artemision in Arkadia (Arcadia). The goddess Artemis complained about the treatment of her deer whose horn had broken off by the hero in the struggle. He nevertheless managed to persuade her to let him borrow it for the completion of his Labour.
Diodorus Siculus, Library of History 4. 12. 13 (trans. Oldfather) (Greek historian C1st B.C.) :
"The next Command [the fourth Labour] which Herakles (Heracles) received was the bringing back of the hart which had golden horns [the Kerynitian (Cerynitian) Hind] and excelled in swiftness of foot. In the performance of this Labour his sagacity stood him in not less stead than his strength of body. For some say that he captured it by the use of nets, others that he tracked it down and mastered it while it was asleep, and some that he wore it out by running it down. One thing is certain, that he accomplished this Labour by his sagacity of mind, without the use of force and without running any perils."
Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture from the fossil fuel combustion exhaust of industrial plants remains a key area of Earth-based sustainability research and development. Technology for CO2 capture and sequestration has long been regarded as critical for reducing atmospheric CO2 emissions; however, the CO2 capture step is still very energy inefficient and expensive.
Technology breakthroughs that can reduce the cost of CO2 capture are still needed for plant operators to implement CO2 sequestration globally, especially where there are no regulatory drivers. By utilizing both the unique flow and separation physics of fluids in microgravity, as well as techniques for the synthesis of novel capture media, the International Space Station (ISS) may serve as a valuable platform to advance CO2 capture technology.
Another closely related, active area of research is the conversion of CO2 to useful organic or inorganic materials, including attempts to mimic plant photosynthesis using novel materials and systems to capture CO2 from air. In microgravity, not only is the behavior of biological systems altered, but the molecular forces of diffusion, surface tension, and capillarity tend to dominate fluid flow phenomena in contrast to greatly diminished gravity-induced mechanisms such as sedimentation, or buoyancy-induced convection in thermal systems.
Therefore, there is ample opportunity for innovation in the areas of novel liquid solvents, solid sorbents, membrane or other materials, microfluidic reactor systems, or hybrid combinations of these technologies that could yield significant breakthroughs in CO2 capture and utilization technology for direct application in industrial plants.
