When he’s not sharing NASA’s Earth Science discoveries with the world, Peter Falcon is hitting softballs with @NASAJPL’s best and brightest.
He spoke with us this week about transitioning to NASA from a behavioral science background, building a work family with his colleagues, and making the mistakes that build character. https://tinyurl.com/57224bvz

"Just like us, using mobile phones, satellites also communicate with each other and with receiving stations on Earth using radio waves. Ideally, however, elaborate agreements with Network Agencies prevent satellites to interfere with radio astronomy observatories. An exception that has not been researched so far is the interference radiation that emanates from the on-board electronics of certain satellites, for exmple the Starlink satellite constellation of SpaceX
Scientists from a number of leading research institutions including the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn, Germany, used the Low Frequency Array (Lofar) telescope to observe 68 of SpaceX’s satellites. The authors conclude that they detected “unintended electromagnetic radiation” emanating from onboard electronics. This is different from communications transmissions, which had been the primary focus for radio astronomers so far. The unintended radiation could impact astronomical research. They encourage satellite operators and regulators to consider this impact on radio astronomy in spacecraft development and regulatory processes alike.."

Airbus’ Pleiades Neo constellation playing major role in controlling Piracy
Today, the Gulf of Guinea is considered the most dangerous maritime area in the world. Whilst the number of recorded attacks decreased in 2021, it is still the most affected area by piracy, i.e. illegal acts of robbery, crew kidnapping, cargo theft, the list goes on.
A number of steps have been taken in recent years to address piracy in the Gulf of Guinea (a region almost 7 times the size of…
