Why don't we use the magnetic field provided by the earth to generate electricity?
Why don’t we use the magnetic field provided by the earth to generate electricity?
Why don’t we use the magnetic field provided by the earth to generate electricity? It sounds like a good idea, but it’s not very practical. Before we explain why, let’s understand how we generate electricity, in case anyone reading this doesn’t already know. Electricity (we say “current”) is created when charged particles flow, like water in a pipe. There are two kinds of electric charges –…

like once a month i have to take a minute to appreciate that from the 1950s to the 2010s when we wanted data storage the collective solution was "eh throw some rust at it." i'm serious. half a century.
these are data tapes, essentially rust on a ribbon, and were used in huge mainframes:
Tumblr media
this is rust on a circle, kept in a protective sleeve. they got smaller over time but all use iron oxide particles just like the tapes above:
Tumblr media
this is also rust on a circle, but kept more secure inside a metal box so that it can be protected and kept ultra-clean:
Tumblr media
...those metal boxes got pretty small. small enough to fit inside one of these:

Condor telescope reveals a new world for astrophysicists
Tumblr media

"A new telescope called the "Condor Array Telescope" may open up a new world of the very-low-brightness universe for astrophysicists. Four new papers, published back to back in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS) this month, present the first scientific findings based on observations acquired by Condor. The project is a collaborative led by scientists in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Stony Brook University and the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH)."
"The new "array telescope" uses computers to combine light from several smaller telescopes into the equivalent of one larger telescope and is able to detect and study astronomical features that are too faint to be seen with conventional telescopes."
"In the second paper, Shara and colleagues used Condor to reassess an image of the dwarf nova Z Camelopardalis or "Z Cam" obtained by the Kitt Peak National Observatory 4-meter telescope back in January 2007. The image showed a partial shell of gas surrounding Z Cam, which Shara speculated was emitted by a "new star" recorded by Chinese Imperial astrologers in the year 77 BCE."

Scientists design new magnets to provide room for sustained nuclear fusion reactions
Scientists design new magnets to provide room for sustained nuclear fusion reactions Scientists are working to realize the potential of nuclear fusion as a nearly inexhaustible source of clean energy, one of the ways that is through new and improved magnets that confine the fields of plasmas so that key reactions can occur . A new example that represents a “revolutionary change” in the way these…

There was a home video tape format called Video 2000 (V2000), that was released in late-1970s and discontinued in late-1980s. It was mostly owned by Philips. These kinds of tapes can literally record video content on both sides in the similar way as audio cassettes.
The format itself, had minor success in Europe, just like what Sony's Betamax (Beta) had its same level of success in the US. However, both of them lost to VHS. But, Video 2000 is obscure and unpopular in North America.

A thrift store find that I didn't buy, because it's more esoteric than even I could manage to use, and I'm trying not to accumulate large useless things:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is a Muntz Stereo-Pak player. This particular model is the home version; Stereo-Pak was the first prerecorded magnetic tape format for car audio, released in 1962, and a precursor to the 8-track tape. Music came in cartridges, inside of which would be a long loop of 4-track tape; on the tape would be two streams of music, with left and right channels for each.
You're meant to slide your tape cartridge up against the magnetic read head inside, guided by the brass grooves on the top. I haven't read anywhere that there were different sizes of cartridges, but the different lines on the face and the lack of hard guides suggests that to me. Once it's in place, one of the levers on the right flips a rubber pinch roller up to pull the tape past the head, playing back the stereo tracks. The other lever is a switch that pops the tape head between its upper and lower position, so you change it to change which tracks are playing.
(There was prerecorded audio for cars before then, because some loons decided to install phonographs. Chrysler's "Highway Hi-Fi" (1956-'59), for example, played special 16⅔ RPM records. For obvious reasons, there were problems with skipping, and the higher-pressure tone arms that tried to alleviate that wore the records out faster.)
The format and the players were developed for Earl "Madman" Muntz, an LA businessman known for an eccentric public persona and oddball marketing campaigns (inspiring such successors as "Go See Cal" Worthington and the "Crazy Eddie" electronics chain in New York). He started out with used car dealerships but his real love was electronics; he started Muntz TV in 1947, and was the first to sell a TV set for less than $100, new. He was a self-taught electrical engineer, and got his TVs to be so cheap through a technique still today called Muntzing. He'd decided that most engineers were designing conservatively, building redundancies and safety margins into their devices, so when his employees presented him with a prototype, he'd go at it with a pair of wire cutters. He'd start just snipping parts out until the thing stopped working — and then tell the engineer, "Well, I guess you have to put that last part back in."
(His TVs were fine in the cities, where big stations had strong signals, but worked quite poorly out in areas where the signals were weak; the parts he'd remove were the ones that boosted performance out there. This wasn't by accident, though; his target market was the city dweller with limited funds, and Muntz was content to let RCA and Zenith and such have the high performance market.)
Anyway, Muntz TV went bankrupt in 1959 after various hardships, and reorganized without "Madman" at the helm. (You may be able to make out the note under the logo on the player that Muntz Stereo is not affiliated with Muntz TV.). Muntz himself was still managing to do well with cars and consumer electronics, so he decided to combine the two with the Stereo-Pak. He had a great deal of success for a while with it, but it was later outcompeted by the 8-track player (which won economically because it used less tape to store the music and had a simpler mechanism, and became hugely popular once Ford started offering the players preinstalled). Muntz ran the company that put commercial recordings on the tapes, and that led to probably his biggest unforseen financial problem with these. See, there'd be the new big radio hit, the new big famous musical group, and he'd rush their album out to all the dealers — and when the new hotness inevitably became yesterday's news, the dealers would send the unsold tapes back and expect to exchange them, straight across, for the next new big hit.

"For the first time, magnetic fields have been detected in three massive, hot stars in our neighboring galaxies, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. While magnetic massive stars have already been detected in our own galaxy, the discovery of magnetism in the Magellanic Clouds is especially important because these galaxies have a strong population of young massive stars. This provides a unique opportunity to study actively forming stars and the upper limit to the mass that a star can have and remain stable.
Notably, magnetism is considered to be a key component in massive star evolution, with far-reaching impact on their ultimate fate. It's the massive stars with initially more than eight solar masses that leave behind neutron stars and black holes by the end of their evolution."
"Stellar magnetic fields are measured using spectropolarimetry. For this, circularly polarized starlight is recorded and the smallest changes in spectral lines are investigated. However, in order to achieve the necessary accuracy of the polarization measurements, this method requires high quality data.
"The method is extremely hungry for photons. This is a special challenge because even the brightest massive stars, which have more than eight solar masses, are relatively light-poor when observed in our neighboring galaxies, the Large and the Small Magellanic Clouds," Dr. Silva Järvinen from the AIP explains.
Because of these conditions, conventional high-resolution spectropolarimeters and smaller telescopes are unsuitable for such investigations. Therefore, the low-resolution spectropolarimeter FORS2 was used, which is mounted on one of the four 8-meter telescopes of the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Observatory (ESO)."
