Würzburg researchers want to train artificial intelligence in space

Würzburg researchers want to train artificial intelligence in space

In order to track down new phenomena in space, researchers from the University of Würzburg want to send a satellite with artificial intelligence (AI) on board into space. “We want to train the AI ​​on board a small satellite under space conditions,” said Hakan Kayal, professor of space technology at the Julius Maximilians University of Würzburg, on Wednesday. What is special about the small…

In February 2022 the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg, Germany, became (likely) the first university to officially adopt the scientific (in German, wissenschaftlich) research of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP). As the chairman of the university’s Interdisciplinary Research Center for Extraterrestrial Science (IFEX) Hakan Kayal, professor of aerospace engineering, says, “We would like to promote the UAP-research branch into an interdisciplinary framework, carry out our own projects and seek cooperation with relevant institutions and authorities, such as the Max Planck Society, the German Aerospace Center, the Federal Aviation Office or the German Weather Service.” However venerable the University of Würzburg, its sanctioning UAP research is unlikely to get those who call ufology “ufoology” to revise their stance. Nevertheless, this development is thought provoking…

FLASHES ON THE MOON On the Moon flashes and other enigmatic light phenomena can be observed again and again. With a new telescope, a professor at the University of Würzburg wants to get to the bottom of these phenomena. It happens several times a week. Sometimes it is only short flashes of light that appear on the surface of the Moon. Other light phenomena on the Earth’s satellite can last longer. And sometimes there are also places that darken temporarily. Science does not know exactly how these phenomena occur on the Moon. But it has attempts to explain them: the impact of a meteor, for example, should cause a brief glow. Such flashes could also occur when electrically charged particles of the solar wind react with Moon dust. “Seismic activities were also observed on the Moon. When the surface moves, gases that reflect sunlight could escape from the interior of the Moon. This would explain the luminous phenomena, some of which last for hours,” says Hakan Kayal, Professor of Space Technology at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg (JMU) in Bavaria, Germany. Moon Telescope Set Up in Spain Kayal is most interested in these appearances. “The so-called transient lunar phenomena have been known since the 1950s, but they have not been sufficiently systematically and long-term observed. This is currently changing, and the JMU professor wants to make his contribution. As a first step, Kayal’s team built a lunar telescope and put it into operation in April 2019. It is located in a private observatory in Spain, about 100 kilometres north of Seville in a rural area. Why Spain? “There are simply better weather conditions for observing the Moon than in Germany,” says Kayal. The telescope is remote-controlled from the JMU campus. It consists of two cameras that keep an eye on the Moon night after night. Only if both cameras register a luminous phenomenon at the same time, the telescope triggers further actions. It then stores photos and video sequences of the event and sends an email message to Kayal’s team. Filing the Intelligent Software The system is not yet completely finished -- the software, which automatically and reliably detects flashes and other light phenomena, is being further refined. Kayal plans to use artificial intelligence methods, among other things: neuronal networks ensure that the system gradually learns to distinguish a Moon flash from technical faults or from objects such as birds and airplanes passing in front of the camera. It is estimated that another year of work will be required before this can be done. For Kayal, reducing the false alarm rate as much as possible is only the first milestone in this project. The system, which he is developing on Spanish soil, will later be used on a satellite mission. The cameras could then work in orbit around the Earth or the Moon. The professor hopes that this will lead to much better results: “We will then be rid of the disturbances caused by the atmosphere.” What happens once the telescope has documented a luminous phenomenon? Kayal’s team would then compare the result with the European Space Agency ESA, which also observes the Moon. “If the same thing was seen there, the event can be considered confirmed.” If necessary, further joint research could then be initiated. New Race to the Moon Interest in the lunar luminous phenomena is currently high. This is also due to a new “race to the Moon” that is underway: China has started a comprehensive lunar program and at the beginning of January 2019 launched a probe on the far side of the Moon. India is planning a similar mission. As a reaction to these initiatives US President Donald Trump spoke in May of a return of the USA to the Moon and announced that he wanted to lead NASA back “to its old size.” Behind all these activities are prestige reasons and a striving for technological “supremacy” in space. China and other players such as Space X, however, are also considering the Moon as a habitat for humans in the long term. In addition, there are raw materials on the Moon -- for example, rare metals that are needed for smartphones and other devices. “Anyone who wants to build a lunar base at some point must of course be familiar with the local conditions,” says Professor Kayal. What if such plans should ever become concrete? By then at the latest, it should be clear what the mysterious flashes and luminous phenomena are all about. Study Programs at JMU JMU students are also involved in the study of lunar phenomena. For example, they can write bachelor’s or master’s theses on the topic. At the University of Würzburg there is a Bachelor’s programme in “Aviation and Space Computer Science,” taught in German. The Master’s programme “Satellite Technology,” which is taught in English, fits in well with this. In addition, you can choose to specialize in Aviation and Space Technology in the Master’s programme in Computer Science.

Science and Chemistry Classes SkyCAM searches the sky for unidentified aerial phenomena by Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg

"Most of these observations concern known phenomena or objects such as birds, aircraft, satellites or clouds. But for a very small proportion, the cause remains unexplained even after intensive investigation by experts," says Hakan Kayal, Professor for Space Technology at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg (JMU) in Bavaria, Germany.

In use since mid-December

The latest product of this work is the SkyCAM-5 camera system, which is based on four predecessor models and has been in test operation on the roof of a JMU university building on the Hubland campus since mid-December 2021.

SkyCAM-5 is a test platform that works autonomously. With customized image processing algorithms, it continuously observes the sky. It can detect objects there, but also short-term luminous phenomena such as lightning or meteors. The JMU professor will use this system to test and further develop algorithms and software components for detecting UAP.

Training during operation

SkyCAM expansions planned

Professor Kayal wants to acquire funding for a further expansion of the UAP detection system.

The next step would be to place a second SkyCAM-5 next to the first. A movement in the sky would then only be recorded if it is seen by both cameras at the same time. With such a dual camera system, it would be possible, for example, to exclude sensor errors, which can occur sporadically.

The aerospace engineer from Würzburg is also planning special extensions. "I would like to equip the camera system with additional infrared sensors to be able to observe the sky in another spectral range. It would also be advantageous to have a tracking system in the form of a telescope that quickly aligns itself with moving objects, zooms in on them and follows them on their path."

And one stage further, there would then be many such double camera systems distributed and networked across Germany, Europe or the world. With such an arrangement, moving objects could be tracked over very long distances.

Machine learning methods are used to reduce the number of false detections. "When the camera detects known objects, it recognizes them with a Convolutional Neural Network, classifies them and stores the corresponding video sequences in a database," Kayal explains.

This works very well, he says: SkyCAM-5 has correctly recognized and classified birds, planes and helicopters several times since it began operations. This considerably reduces the effort required to evaluate the camera data.

SkyCAM is supposed to become smarter and smarter over time. That is why it is trained during operation. If, for example, it classifies a passing butterfly as unknown, it is taught by humans that the animal with the fluttering flight is called a butterfly—so in future it will correctly classify a peacock butterfly as a butterfly.

Luzes estão piscando na Lua e ninguém sabe o motivo

Os mistérios do espaço são muitos e alguns duram anos sem que a gente descubra uma explicação. Um deles é o caso das luzes que brilham na Lua, um fenômeno facilmente observável com um bom telescópio e que chama atenção de cientistas e curiosos desde pelo menos os anos 1960. São como flashes emitidos da superfície lunar que às vezes são bem frequentes, às vezes raros, e que ninguém tem uma boa explicação. Até hoje. Várias explicações já foram especuladas sobre o que gera essas luzes na Lua — além de pequenos alienígenas tirando foto com flash da gente de lá. Alguns cientistas apostam em meteoritos que acertam nosso satélite, outros falam em ventos solares, mas nada que seja conclusivo. Porém, agora, alguns especialistas vão tentar compreender melhor a origem desse mistério. Um deles é o professor de tecnologia espacial da Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, na Alemanha. Hakan Kayal e sua equipe possuem acesso a um telescópio na Espanha que usa duas câmeras para observar a Lua constantemente. Quando ambas veem um dos flashes, o telescópio captura fotos e vídeos e alerta a equipe do professor para realizar observações adicionais.

Entendendo nossos vizinhos

Os resultados vão ser somados a dados da Agência Espacial Europeia para tentar entender o que pode estar acontecendo no nosso satélite natural. “Atividades sísmicas também foram observadas na Lua. Quando a superfície se move, os gases que refletem a luz do sol podem escapar do interior do satélite”, disse o professor Hakan Kayal. “Isso explicaria os fenômenos luminosos, alguns dos quais duram horas.” A resposta para esse mistério, porém, ainda deve demorar para ser encontrada — o telescópio ainda está em desenvolvimento e v��rias melhorias ainda devem ser feitas em seu software, que entrou em ação muito recentemente, no último mês de abril.

At a mere 240,000 miles away, you'd think we would have figured out everything there is to know about Earth's little sidekick, the moon. Maybe it's our short attention span, but it's almost like: Put men on the moon, check, next stop, Mars.

Case in point: Transient lunar phenomena.

This oddity has been mystifying scientists since at least the 1960s (and likely long before), when a paper by astronomers Barbara Middlehurst and Patrick Moore was published in the journal Science. The scientists had reviewed scientific literature and found nearly 400 reports of strange events on the moon, explains Rafi Letzter on space.com. Calling the unexplained strangeness "lunar transient phenomena" (which got flipped around later), the paper described how regions of the lunar surface would get brighter or darker, and nobody could explain why.

A few years later, the astronomer A. A. Mills wrote in the journal Nature: "The emitted light is usually described as reddish or pinkish, sometimes with a 'sparkling' or 'flowing' appearance. The coloration may extend for a distance of 10 miles or more on the lunar surface, with brighter spots 2 to 3 miles across, and is commonly associated with veiling of the surface features. The average duration of an event is some 20 minutes, but it may persist intermittently for a few hours."

Now, some 50 years later, astronomers are finally setting up an observatory specifically to explore the mystery flashing.

While some backyard astronomers can happen upon the flashes, which now occur a few times a week, the new observatory should be well equipped to get some good data. Located in Spain, there will be two cameras constantly trained on the moon. When both register a flash, they will automatically record detailed photos and videos and send them off for analyses.

Who knows what they may discover. Various possibilities have been suggested, including meteor strikes, solar wind hitting moon dust, and the reflection of sunlight – but so far, no explanations have stuck. Except maybe that last one.

"Seismic activities were also observed on the moon. When the surface moves, gases that reflect sunlight could escape from the interior of the moon," says Hakan Kayal, Professor of Space Technology at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburgand and head of the telescope project. "This would explain the luminous phenomena, some of which last for hours."

Curiously, interest in this mystery around everyone's favorite natural satellite has been reignited by a new "race to the moon." With China, India, and private companies all aiming to visit (and more), it only makes sense that we'd want to figure out what exactly is going on up there.

"Anyone who wants to build a lunar base at some point must of course be familiar with the local conditions," says Kayal. Pinkish, sparking flashes and all.

For past some days mysterious flashes start appearing on the surface of the moon. Sometimes the flashes lasted for a shorter duration but sometimes lasted for a too long duration. The average duration of an event is some 20 minutes, but it may persist intermittently for a few hours. There are also spots that darken temporarily. Science does not know exactly how and why these phenomena are occurring on the surface of the moon. Now a team of German scientists tries to explain it. “Seismic activities were also observed on the moon. When the surface moves, gases that reflect sunlight could escape from the interior of the moon. This would explain the luminous phenomena, some of which last for hours,” says Hakan Kayal, Professor of Space Technology at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg (JMU) in Bavaria, Germany. . .

Unknown Flashes of light on Moon: Is the Moon having a message for us?

Sparkles of lights which keep coming from Moon have kept the scientists puzzled for quite a long time now. It is incredulous that after so much advancement we are unable to lift curtains of this issue. We still don’t have answers that from where this light keeps emanating.

But A German Scientist Hakan Kayal has a belief that he may be onto something special. He said he has a good reason behind the occurrence of such events regularly. The phenomenon in scientific terms is referred to the as transient lunar phenomenon (TLP).

He has claimed that he is able to explain the result of such occurrences with the help of telescopes and stuff. He along with his team members has built an observatory in a remote part of Spain to study the effect.

Finally, the breakthrough arrives:

He explained that the mild budget system that he has designed has two telescopes mounted on the base.

Each telescope is attached with separate cameras. The instrument which in turn are connected to two separate computers using Artificial Intelligence to distinguish the source of the flash.

The telescopes will continuously scan the moon’s surface for lights. It will click a picture if and only if it observes some kind of lightning on the moon.

Mr Kayal stated that the goal was to make the system adapt to absorbing lights and distinguish light sources. Distinguish random phenomenons – such as meteorites or birds passing in front of the camera. So that the possible causes of TLP can be brought down.

Why was it an Achilles heel?

One of the main challenges that lie in front of Mr Kayal and his team is to generate a trusted instrument.

Scientists are well known about the occurring of the effects of TLP. Since the 1950’s they knew TLP but they were never on a large scale so they went unnoticed.

He is optimistic that he will be able to prove his theory that “When the surfaces move gases that reflect the sunlight can have an easy escape from moon’s interiors”. Check out The Geek Herald for more exciting updates.

新太空望遠鏡將調查月球神秘閃光

所謂的“月球瞬變現象”指的是月球上短暫或持續時間較長的閃光現象。月球表面的一些區域就曾被觀測到隨機變暗的情況。

至少早在1787年，人們就記錄了這些神秘的光。那一年4月19日，天文學家威廉·赫歇爾報告稱，他在月球上看到了三個略帶紅色的發光區域，據他解釋，這三個區域是在月球上發生的火山噴發。包括阿波羅11號的邁克爾·柯林斯在內的阿波羅宇航員也報告稱，他們看到了異常明亮的區域。

1969年登月前一天，柯林斯告訴美國宇航局任務控制中心說：“有一個區域的光照比周圍區域要大得多。它只是–看起來有少量的熒光。可以看到一個隕石坑，而且隕石坑周圍的區域非常明亮。”

位於西班牙塞維利亞北部的新月球望遠鏡每天晚上都能看到月球上奇怪的閃光。由德國維爾茨堡大學的空間技術教授Hakan Kayal領導的科研小組將分析這次活動的照片和視頻序列。他們將結果跟歐航局(ESA)的數據進行比較。

“如果在那裡看到同樣的事情，就可以認為這一事件得到了證實，”Kayal在周五的一份聲明中說道。

另外他還補充道，，鑑於NASA等政府航天機構以及SpaceX、傑夫·貝佐斯的藍色起源等私人航空公司對在月球上建立存在感的興趣正在復蘇，弄清奇怪閃光的來源是有意義的。 “任何想在某個時候建立月球基地的人，當然必須熟悉那裡的情況。”
