JWST Will Revolutionize Astronomy Just Like Hubble Bad Astra 2022-10-21 | Hanging out in orbit around L2, in under a year the JWST has already challenged our understanding of galaxy formation in the early universe, captured more detailed images than ever before, and helped record DART, a monumental step in planetary defense. The JWST can look at the atmospheres of exoplanets, it can see galaxies from the early universe, it can capture more details and see through dust like never before.The most exciting part of all of these findings is that none of them pushed JWST. These have all been short, easy “testing the system” measurements, which means the best is yet to come. This telescope is not just working, but exceeding all expectations. JWST is a revolutionary step in astronomy’s quest to answer two of humanity’s biggest mysteries: Where did we come from? And Are we Alone? This telescope will change our understanding of the universe, and I am so excited to learn what we were wrong about, and what we didn’t even think to consider.Join our Patreon: Patreon.com/badastraFacebook: facebook.com/BadAstraChannelTiktok: BadAstraOfficialTwitter: @BadAstraChannelInstagram: bad_astraOnlyfans: (just kidding)Thank you to Gail Gallagher for our theme music! www.gailgallaghermusic.comCredits Remix by Quantopix: whyrecord.com/artist/QuantopixSources:Where is JWST? space.com/news/live/james-webb-space-telescope-updatessolarsystem.nasa.gov/resources/754/what-is-a-lagrange-point https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Herschel/L2_the_second_Lagrangian_PointHidden Planet Further Reading: https://vocal.media/earth/there-is-a-planet-hidden-behind-the-sunFirst Images: nasa.gov/webbfirstimages SMACS 0723: sciencenews.org/article/james-webb-space-telescope-first-image-galaxy-stars-data Lyman Break: https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Sept14/Dunlop/Dunlop3.html Cartwheel: sciencenews.org/article/james-webb-space-telescope-cartwheel-galaxy-image CO2: sciencenews.org/article/james-webb-space-telescope-carbon-dioxide-exoplanet-atmosphereCO2 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2208.11692Direct Exoplanet Image: jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasas-webb-takes-its-first-ever-direct-image-of-distant-worldblogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/09/01/nasas-webb-takes-its-first-ever-direct-image-of-distant-world DART: nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2022/webb-hubble-capture-detailed-views-of-dart-impact https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Webb/Webb_and_Hubble_capture_detailed_views_of_DART_impact nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-s-dart-mission-hits-asteroid-in-first-ever-planetary-defense-testnytimes.com/2022/09/27/science/nasa-dart-asteroid-photos.htmlhubblesite.org/contents/media/videos/2022/047/01GE3AM1KCFF93ZWZ5BKV7TWES?news=truehubblesite.org/contents/media/videos/2022/047/01GE3BYP8GD9HNMHMHE98DW4RX?news=truegizmodo.com/liciacube-images-dart-asteroid-impact-1849585958euronews.com/next/2022/09/26/dart-what-you-need-to-know-about-nasa-mission-to-smash-a-spacecraft-into-an-asteroidnasaspaceflight.com/2022/09/dart-impact Results: youtube.com/watch?v=sldKEFg76soPhotometric Redshift: kaggle.com/c/photometric-redshift-estimation-2019

Star Trek Voyagers Fluidic Space vs. Starship Hulls Bad Astra 2021-12-22 | Pluto patron Jedindianajones suggested I do more sci fi reviews, and I can thank Star Trek: Voyager for making me a Trekkie. So let’s talk about Scorpion, the season-splitting 2-part episode which introduced 7 of 9. And like Captain Janeway, let’s be scientists first. Specifically, let’s talk about pressure and spaceship hull mechanics.In Scorpion, the Voyager crew finally encounters Borg space. The most formidable villain of Next Gen has its base in the Delta Quadrant, so diehard Trek fans likely suspected this showdown was coming. Voyager encounters not one, but a fleet of Borg cubes and prepares for a final futile resistance, but end up being scanned and ignored, as the cubes flee a greater threat. So what could have the Borg running scared? Meet species 8472: aliens we’ll only ever know by their Borg designation. They are from a different dimension, completely resistant to assimilation, and merciless. They outgun and outmatch the Borg at every turn. But more importantly, their home, fluidic space, isn’t a near-vacuum, but a dense medium. And spoilers, Voyager enters fluidic space for a few minutes of screen time.See the other half of this collaboration where we talk about defeating Species 8472 with Borg nanoprobes (and make some analogies to modern nanomedicine)!youtu.be/uNzW_PE3t80Hit up STRINGSYouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCllYR9x-o8XCsSZ0WRWlySw Twitter: @strings_ytFinnterest: NotAThingButIMadeYouLookJoin our Patreon: Patreon.com/badastraFacebook: facebook.com/BadAstraChannelTiktok: BadAstraOfficialTwitter: @BadAstraChannelInstagram: bad_astraOnlyfans: (just kidding)Thank you to Gail Gallagher for our theme music! www.gailgallaghermusic.comCredits Remix by Quantopix: whyrecord.com/artist/QuantopixSources:birthmoviesdeath.com/2012/12/11/a-scientist-explains-why-the-enterprise-cant-go-underwateryoutube.com/watch?v=BoO0x2q2Zuwmemory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Extreme_Risk_(episode)#Continuityenergy.gov/eere/fuelcells/hydrogen-storage#:~:text=Storage%20of%20hydrogen%20as%20a,pressure%20is%20%E2%88%92252.8%C2%B0C.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_hydrogenmemory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Species_8472memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Species_8472Tardigrades: youtube.com/watch?v=HsStKuWHI_c
How The Expanse Gets Physics Right Bad Astra 2021-12-09 | Learn about the science of the Expanse from an astrophysicist and a science communicator. From the opening scene, we know The Expanse is going to be a different type of sci-fi show. It takes physics (specifically gravity and acceleration) seriously. Say goodbye to inertial dampeners and artificial gravity and hello to spin gravity and high-G maneuvers, because we’re exploring the expanse of space, and it’s terrifying. The physics of the Expanse is more accurate than any Sci Fi show we've seen yet, which is why we love the Expanse so much.Join our Patreon: Patreon.com/badastraFacebook: facebook.com/BadAstraChannelTiktok: BadAstraOfficialTwitter: @BadAstraChannelInstagram: bad_astraOnlyfans: (just kidding)Thank you to Gail Gallagher for our theme music! www.gailgallaghermusic.comCredits Remix by Quantopix: whyrecord.com/artist/QuantopixSources:http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/people-and-astronomy/150-people-in-astronomy/space-exploration-and-astronauts/general-questions/927-can-artificial-gravity-be-created-in-space-intermediateexpanse.fandom.com/wiki/Ceres#Mediaen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_gravity#Centripetal_forcetheportalist.com/the-expanse-sciencehttp://www.danielabraham.com/2017/04/04/guest-post-losing-science-drama-finding-drama-scienceyoutube.com/watch?v=cN66v_Qtcc8
The Potentially Fatal Scientific Bias Bad Astra 2021-11-20 | This workout targets fatphobia, bias in scientific research, and discrimination in medicine. Anti-fatness and fad diets were around for hundreds of years before medical studies with current standards of scientific rigor (sample sizes, controlling for confounding variables, etc.) existed. Christian (specifically Puritan & Calvinist) spiritual ideals became white supremacist beauty ideals centuries before medicine entered the conversation.We live in a society that holds problematic views, which are instilled in people, including scientists, and that perpetuates real harm. Fat people have been an acceptable target because of Christian white supremacist biases against them, which impacted the science that was produced.This isn’t a body-positivity or activism video. It’s about bias in science, using anti-fatness as a case study. The Bad Astra team acknowledges that we are all straight-sized women and cannot speak to the experience of existing as fat people. We call for increased diversity in science, as societal biases like this can only be identified and countered when people with different perspectives are listened to and taken seriously.Join our Patreon: Patreon.com/badastraFacebook: facebook.com/BadAstraChannelTiktok: BadAstraOfficialTwitter: @BadAstraChannelInstagram: bad_astraTheme: Gail Gallagher www.gailgallaghermusic.comCredits Remix: Quantopix whyrecord.com/artist/QuantopixExtended Interview: youtu.be/8WNwz2HWVaUKat Benson: youtube.com/c/UnlockedNutritionKatBensonRDNLDSabrina Strings' book: amazon.com/Fearing-Black-Body-Racial-Origins/dp/1479886750Other Sources:Impact of weight stigma on quality of care and outcomes for fat patients:ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4381543apa.org/news/press/releases/2017/08/fat-shamingwellandgood.com/fat-shaming-medicinescientificamerican.com/article/in-obesity-research-fatphobia-is-always-the-x-factorTestimonials: buzzfeed.com/laraparker/times-doctors-were-fatphobicImplicit Bias Study: journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0048448Racial Differences in "Ideal weight": jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/195748Stress impacts on health: mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/stress-management/in-depth/stress/art-20046037Social Determinants of Health: youtube.com/watch?v=NTc7VWPLylcFood Pyramids: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_pyramid_(nutrition)Ryan Masters' Study: ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/full/10.2105/AJPH.2013.301379History of at-home Scales: elemental.medium.com/the-completely-bonkers-history-of-the-bathroom-scale-35ba54e04805#:~:text=The%20first%20American%2Dmade%20bathroom,by%20over%201%20million%20people.BMI History:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolphe_Quetelet#Criminologyelemental.medium.com/the-bizarre-and-racist-history-of-the-bmi-7d8dc2aa33bbnpr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106268439katsonga.com/random-thoughts/a-short-history-of-body-mass-index-bmiHealth At Every Size (HAES)centralcoasttreatmentcenter.com/blog-1/the-health-at-every-size-haes-movement-size-does-not-equal-healthsizediversityandhealth.org/health-at-every-size-haes-approachpubag.nal.usda.gov/download/8478/PDFnutritionj.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1475-2891-10-9hindawi.com/journals/jobe/2014/983495theswaddle.com/all-the-arguments-you-need-to-prove-fat-isnt-necessarily-unhealthyRestrictive Diets don’t work; Fatphobia doesn’t reduce obesity, Stress from weight stigma: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4654677/#R29sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0195666314003560?casa_token=QHrKK4bMOBgAAAAA:VkjkkYZO5ttPRnNTy_ryqAitRIv_i6tOSOKcwknDeuR-mp0lfh-rGSCj_VXT0H6QoHG3bIyf8wblogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/fat-is-not-the-problem-fat-stigma-isHow Obesity became a disease: theatlantic.com/health/archive/2015/03/how-obesity-became-a-disease/388300nytimes.com/2013/06/19/business/ama-recognizes-obesity-as-a-disease.htmlBetter measures of health:cnet.com/health/6-health-stats-that-are-more-important-than-your-weightheart.org/en/health-topics/high-blood-pressure/understanding-blood-pressure-readingsaskthescientists.com/measuring-healthPrior Research:Philosophy Tube: youtube.com/watch?v=9MGUWtTakQcThe Costume Codex: youtube.com/watch?v=rxwSsTCavOMThe Costume Codex: youtube.com/watch?v=UoZWG7oiGqQJenny Le: youtube.com/watch?v=3iDBWJDlGywLaci Green: youtube.com/watch?v=QvKfPr7b_A8jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/2725893self.com/story/coronavirus-medical-anti-fat-biashttps://sci-hub.se/10.1002/1098-108x(199312)14:4%3C467::aid-eat2260140410%3E3.0.co;2-j
