How Stars are Born | Hans Moritz Guenther | MIT IAP 2024 MIT Video Productions 2024-01-30 | This short talk it intended for non-astronomers who are interested in learning how stars form and how astronomical research is actually done in practice.While our Sun is almost 5 billion years old, stars still form in the the dark clouds of our Milky Way. When we observe those regions we can learn how star and planet formation works, so that we also understand the formation of our own solar system and the Earth better.This talk will describe how we observe those regions that are hidden to the naked eye using infrared and X-ray telescopes to obtain stunning images of stellar nurseries. Zooming in on just a few of the young stars, you will be shown how a gas cloud collapses to form a hot gas core that is the birth place of another sun and possibly a few planets. This is the stage of star formation where Hans Moritz Guenther concentrates his own research and will describe how professional astronomers gain access to space telescopes, share his experiences of how to use the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) for his observations of young stars. He will show an example of how we process the observations to extract scientific conclusions. Star formation is a very active area of research with many mysteries to solve and certainly one of the areas in astronomy that delivers extremely beautiful images of the Milky Way that surrounds us.Please Subscribe! http://www.youtube.com/c/MITVideoProductions?sub_confirmation=1

Professor Vera Kuklina on Geography and Environmental Studies MIT Video Productions 2023-11-14 | A Research Professor in the Department of Geography at George Washington University, she discusses her research on socio-ecological systems, cultural geographies of infrastructure, and the impact of climate change on indigenous communities, both in the Arctic and beyond. She introduces two major research projects, "Informal Roads," a study investigating the effects of unofficial transportation routes on Arctic and Subarctic communities, and "Frozen Commons," a transdisciplinary project exploring sustainability and evolving climate conditions in the Arctic. Professor Kuklina demonstrates the use of satellite imagery and mapping tools in geography, introduces the concept of "mapathons," and shares insights from the transmedia platform ArtSLInK (Art, Science, Local, and Indigenous Knowledge). Additionally, she reflects on the pivotal role of Lake Baikal and underscores the importance of comprehending indigenous perspectives on the environment and land use to develop effective climate change solutions.00:35 O себе 02:24 Как выбрали географию04:32 Специализация и научные интересы05:58 Исследовательские методы07:33 Инструменты картографирования12:19 Спутниковые снимки в картографии17:05 Проект Frozen Commons22:09 Изменения климата и жизнь коренных народов25:36 Уникальность озера Байкал 27:51 Экологические проблемы на Байкале30:37 Роль русского языка в работе географов33:05 Блицопрос.
