James Webb and Keck-telescopes cooperation uncovered the clouds in Titan's atmosphere.

"Images of Saturn’s moon Titan, captured by the James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam instrument November 4, 2022. Left: Image using F212N, a 2.12-micron filter sensitive to Titan’s lower atmosphere. The bright spots are prominent clouds in the northern hemisphere. Right: Color composite image using a combination of NIRCam filters: Blue=F140M (1.40 microns), Green=F150W (1.50 microns), Red=F200W (1.99 microns), Brightness=F210M (2.09 microns). "

Titan-moon is quite similar to Ganymede. The largest moon of Jupiter. The question is why does Ganymede not have a dense atmosphere?

Titan is the biggest moon of Saturn. It's the only moon in our solar system that has a dense atmosphere. And that thing makes this moon remarkable. There are clouds in the Titan atmosphere. And that thing means there is also some kind of particles. They are forming clouds in the atmosphere of that very cold. The average temperature on Titan is 93,7K (−179.5 °C). So those clouds can form around the small ice bites.

There is 2.7±0.1% of methane (CH4) in the Titan atmosphere. And that thing can form methane ice in that atmosphere.

There is no oxygen on Titan. And that denies the oxygenizing reactions. So that thing can make Titan a very interesting place. In that chemical environment, things like carbon-based molecules can stay almost forever.

James Webb and other telescopes can uncover new details from that very extraordinary world with hydrocarbon oceans. Titan is a very dry moon, and there is no known water. But the dense atmosphere that is mainly nitrogen makes that moon very interesting.

Because it should be like a freezer where is lots of material from the young solar system. The atmosphere protects those organic compounds from the UV radiation that comes from the Sun. So maybe the origin of life is stored in that icy moon. The nitrogen atmosphere of Titan is unique. The pressure of the atmosphere is 1,42 atm atmosphere.

But the mass of that moon is lower than Ganymede, the largest satellite in the solar system. The surface gravity of Titan is 1.352 m/s2 (0.138 g) (0.835 Moon's) and the surface gravity of Ganymede is 1.428 m/s2 (0.146 g). The question is why Ganymede has no dense atmosphere. Maybe the distance from the Sun explains why Titan has its nitrogen atmosphere and Ganymede has not that thing.

"Evolution of clouds on Titan over 30 hours between November 4 and November 6, 2022, as seen by Webb NIRCam (left) and Keck NIRC-2 (right). Titan’s trailing hemisphere seen here is rotating from left (dawn) to right (evening) as seen from Earth and the Sun. Cloud A appears to be rotating into view while Cloud B appears to be either dissipating or moving behind Titan’s limb (around toward the hemisphere facing away from us)."

"Clouds are not long-lasting on Titan or Earth, so those seen on November 4 may not be the same as those seen on November 6. The NIRCam image used the following filters: Blue=F140M (1.40 microns), Green=F150W (1.50 microns), Red=F200W (1.99 microns), Brightness=F210M (2.09 microns). The Keck NIRC-2 image used: Red=He1b (2.06 microns), Green=Kp (2.12 microns), Blue=H2 1-0 (2.13 microns). Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, W. M. Keck Observatory. A. Pagan (STScI).

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying. Does the AI have feelings? Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans. What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions. In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1). A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true. The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains. Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series. So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
