Wouldn’t it be wonderful to live on a planet with a non-rotating atmosphere to be able to travel places by just jumping into the air and hovering long enough? Sounds fantastic, right? The problem is, when a planet turns and the air does not, things get really windy. As in “a thousand miles per hour wind speed “ windy.
Luckily for us, we don’t experience it here on Earth. The Earth’s atmosphere travels in sync with our planet and completes one turn around its axis in roughly 24 hours. Phew!

The size of our Milky Way Galaxy is about 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 kilometers.
The nearest galaxy to the Milky Way, Andromeda, is about 24 000 000 000 000 000 000 km away from the Earth.
Our star, the Sun, weighs about 2 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 kilograms.
Satellite navigation and and how it works wonderdome
“You have reached your destination!” Many of us hear these words if not on a daily basis. Honestly, I don’t even want to look back at the times before the satellite navigation. Those were the times of hand-drawn maps, road atlases and being lost. A lot. Now everybody has a satnav device for their personal use. What’s even more important, trains, ships, planes and even robots use the satellite navigation too!
But how does the technology actually work?
The idea is beautifully simple:
Get a radio signal from a satellite on your receiver. The signal can include the time when it was sent and the location of the satellite. When you receive the signal, the distance to the satellite can be easily calculated as you will know how long it took for the signal to arrive to the receiver (and we know how fast the signal travels, right?). The distance to the satellite will give you the area of your possible locations. Not yet good enough! To narrow down your location area take the second satellite and repeat the process. And finally add the third satellite. Here you are!
With just 3 satellites you will know your position on the “mean sea level”. But at least 4 satellites are needed to determine your accurate location if you are up in the mountains. In practice, 6 satellites are usually visible from each location.
Nobel Prize in Astronomy? Nonsense, you will say, there is no such thing! And you will be right! Today I would like to talk about the Nobel Prizes in Physics awarded for the discoveries directly related to Astronomy. Of course, many scientific advances contributed to the modern understanding of Space. But let’s look at those few that achieved the highest scientific recognition.
Submanyan Chandrasekhar received the Prize for his research “on the structure and evolution of stars”. His work helped us understand how stars age and die. Chandrasekhar calculated what we now call Chandrasekhar limit, which is equal to 1.4 Solar mass. Chandrasekhar showed that if the dying star has a mass of 1.4 Solar mass or less when it reaches the white dwarf stage, it stays a white dwarf forever. A heavier star will continue collapsing and eventually turn into a neutron star or a black hole. You can find more information about Chandrasekhar and his research in our post.
Research missions to launch in spring 2018 wonderdome

With two very exciting launches scheduled for this Spring, scientists are getting ready to learn more about our own and other planetary systems.
TESS orbiter is scheduled to take off on April 16, 2018 and the InSight lander might start its space journey as early as May 5, 2018.
The Annual Edinburgh International Science Festival took place in the Scottish capital last week.

How many planets can we see with a naked eye? Five! Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can all be spotted from Earth without the aid of a telescope or binoculars. Though in principle all five are visible, some are easier to find than others. Mercury is the trickiest planet to observe thanks to its small size and proximity to the Sun. Telescopic observations of the planet face the same problem.
But it is not only difficult to observe Mercury from the ground. Sending robotic explorers to the tiny planet is also tricky. Mercury is very fast. It is very energy consuming to get a spacecraft into orbit around Mercury. The amount of propellant needed could have taken you all the way to Jupiter (though Jupiter is 12 times farther away from the Earth than Mercury). Another challenge is the radiation from the Sun. Any spacecraft daring to get so close to our star will have to have a one of a kind heat protection to operate!
Unsurprisingly, Mercury is the least explored terrestrial planet in the Solar System. Our knowledge of it is very patchy and far from complete. Still, Mercury is a very interesting object and we want to study it despite all the difficulties. Yes, it is not surrounded by a swarm of moons. There are no rings, And it is unlikely that we will find any living things there. But this little planet can tell us a lot about our Solar System and explain how planets orbiting close to their stars form and evolve.
Rings around gas giants in the solar system wonderdome
Whenever we ask our star dome visitors to name the Solar System ringed planets, a choir of voices immediately says “Saturn”. A few people mention Uranus and, occasionally, Neptune.
In fact, all the gas planet in the Solar System, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, have rings around them. Maybe not as spectacular as those of Saturn, but still very interesting and even puzzling for astronomers.
So let’s look at the less famous rings of Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune and learn about their origin, structure and composition!
NASA scientists say that we are about to loose our favourite Dawn spacecraft that has been studying the Asteroid Belt largest objects Ceres and Vesta for the past 11 years. In the next few weeks Dawn will run out of fuel needed to keep the spacecraft’s antennas pointed to the Earths and instruments to the target. When it happens, Dawn will not be able to do any more science or talk to the ground control. It will continue silently orbiting the dwarf planet Ceres for quite some time, possibly for the next twenty years.

Celebrating the 49th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landingwonderdome
Today people around the World celebrate the 49th anniversary of the first Moon landing!
Humans have finally fulfilled their long-term dream when Commander Neil Armstrong and Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin touched down on the Lunar surface on July 20, 1969 at 8:18 PM UTC. The third crew member, Michael Collins remained in orbit around the Moon piloting the Columbia module. All the objective of this bold and daring first mission: to land on the Moon, to collect the samples and to return safely back to Earth were met!
Every year a few of our little star dome visitors proudly tell us that their parents bought them a star (i.e. paid to name a star after the child) when they were born. Although it sounds beautiful, sadly it is not true. There are indeed commercial companies offering you “to name a star (visible in your area) after someone special”. Unfortunately those companies have nothing to do with the International Astronomical Union, the organization responsible for naming astronomical objects. Therefore if you pay to name a star, you WILL get a fancy certificate, that name WILL appear on that company’s list, but the scientific community will NEVER accept it. And another such company, with their own list, will probably sell the same star to somebody else.
Visit one of our inflatable dome stargazing sessions and we will show you how to find your way around the night sky. You will find out how to spot the constellations that dominate the sky in different seasons. And, of course, how to identify the brightest and the most famous stars. Like the the North Star! Although the North Star is only the 50th brightest star on the night sky, it is very easy to find. Just follow the two pointer stars, Dubhe and Merak, in the scoop of the Big Dipper in the constellation of the Big Bear and here it is, the North Star. Or Polaris.
Great disasters in the history of spaceflight wonderdome
This week in the anniversaries of three space disasters we are remembering the astronauts who have lost their lives pursuing our common dream for space exploration.
In March the observers in the Northern Hemisphere are saying goodbye to our favourite winter constellation Orion. But before the Great Hunter disappears from the view until the next Autumn, let’s take a close look at the stars that make up the famous hourglass shape.
Note: we will describe Orion as we see it from the Northern Hemisphere. Observers in the Southern Hemisphere will see Orion mirrored and upside down.
Asteroids that grow tails (or everything we know about active asteroids) wonderdome
Classification, i.e. putting things into groups based on their common characteristics, is a basic way of studying objects in many branches of science. Astronomy is, of course, no exception. That is why the question of Pluto being or not being a planet steered such a debate among planetary scientists.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .

(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.
How fast can an atmosphere travel round it's planet? "Normal" rotation on Earth vs superrotation on Venus
1. How fast can an atmosphere travel around its planet?
“Normal” rotation on Earth vs superrotation on Venus.
2. Fast currents in the Earth’s atmosphere (aka jet streams)
Have you ever noticed that flights from the US to Europe are
often shorter than the other way around? Sometimes they
even arrive well ahead of schedule! That’s jet streams’ work!
Jet streams are high altitude eastbound currents that flow at
speeds of 100 miles per hour and faster. They occur in a layer
of the atmosphere called tropopause because of the big
temperature differences in the air. Each hemisphere has two
jet streams: a polar stream and a subtropical stream.
Consequently, if an eastbound airplane flies with a jet stream,
it can cut travel time and save fuel. On the other hand, the
westbound airplane encountering a jet stream will take longer
to reach its destination and at higher fuel costs.
Jet streams can be found in the atmospheres of other, rocky
and gas, planets, both in the Solar System and beyond.
Conclusion: There is a lot of “movement” in the Earth’s air
and there are some pretty fast currents, but as a whole, the
atmosphere does a good job of keeping up with the surface.
3. Superrotation
Now, imagine a planet, where the jet streams are fast and
the planet’s rotation is slow. Do such planets exist?
It turns out that Venus, Saturn’s moon Titan (the only
moon we know to have a substantial atmosphere) and
several newly discovered exoplanets, do have
atmospheres that rotate very fast with winds in some
zones blowing faster than the planet rotates! Scientists
call this phenomenon “superrotation”. They have lots of
ideas about how celestial objects maintain superrotation,
but no definite theory.
4. Venus
Venus is the slowest rotating planet in the Solar System. It
really takes its time to turn around: one day on
Venus lasts a whooping 243 Earth days. Venusian
atmosphere moves in the same direction as the planet but
much faster! The speed of the air is the highest at the top
of a 20 kilometer thick acid cloud layer. There, the
atmosphere rotates 60 times faster than the ground
beneath, taking only 4 days to complete a turn. Scientists
compare that with steering a coffee with a spoon, only the
coffee moves faster than the spoon itself. It is not clear
what powers this fast rotation and prevents the air from
“catching up” with the solid planetary body.
5. What causes superrotation on Venus
One of the most widely accepted explanations of
Venusian superrotation has to do with the solar wind.
Because Venus, unlike the Earth, does not have its own
protective magnetosphere, the solar wind particles arrive
unchallenged to the upper layers of the planet’s
atmosphere. The collision between solar wind and
atmosphere particles (and, therefore momentum transfer)
is thought to be responsible for speeding up the upper
atmosphere. It is quite likely that the faster top layers, in
turn, speed up the inner layers.
Other factors that contribute to Venusian superrotation
might include temperature variations between day and
night, tidal effects caused by Venus’ proximity to the Sun
and (our favourite) difference in the reflective properties of
the planet’s day and night sides.
6. Akatsuki
For the past three years Japanese probe Akatsuki has
been exploring Venusian atmosphere and trying to solve
the mystery of its superrotation (and, more generally,
answer the question what makes the Earth and Venus so
different).
Recently, Akatsuki spotted the air current that looked very
much like jet streams we observe on Earth. The venusian
air stream, JAXA scientists nicknamed it Venusian
equatorial jet, was only seen for several months in 2016.
In the original publication the authors say the jet has to do
with the planet’s superrotation. Hopefully, more data from
Akatsuki will help astronomers understand what is going
on in the Venusian atmosphere.
Other places where we can observe superrotation are
Saturn’s moon Titan, and, outside the Solar System, some
short-period tidally locked exoplanets.
