The Erieye radar system is an Airborne Early Warning and Control System (AEW&C) developed by Saab Electronic Defence Systems (formerly Ericsson Microwave Systems) of Sweden. It uses active electronically scanned array (AESA) technology. The Erieye is used on a variety of aircraft platforms, such as the Saab 340 and Embraer R-99. It has recently been implemented on the Bombardier Global 6000 aircraft as the Globaleye.
The Erieye Ground Interface Segment (EGIS; not to be confused with the Aegis combat system) is a major component of the software used by the Erieye system.
The radar provides 300 degree coverage and has an instrumental range of 450 km and detection range of 350 km in a dense hostile electronic warfare environment—in heavy radar clutter and at low target altitudes. In addition to this, the radar is also capable of identifying friends or foes, and has a sea surveillance mode.
The Erieye system has full interoperability with NATO air defence command and control systems.
Design
The Erieye AEW&C mission system radar is an active, phased-array, pulse-doppler sensor that can feed an onboard operator architecture or downlink data (via an associated datalink subsystem) to a ground-based air defence network. The system employs a large aperture, dual-sided antenna array housed in a dorsal 'plank' fairing. The antenna is fixed, and the beam is electronically scanned, which provides for improved detection and significantly enhanced tracking performance compared with radar-dome antenna systems. Erieye detects and tracks air and sea targets out to the horizon, and sometimes beyond this due to anomalous propagation — instrumented range has been measured at 450 kilometres (280 mi). Typical detection range against fighter-sized targets is approximately 425 kilometres (264 mi), in a 150° broadside sector, both sides of the aircraft. Outside these sectors, performance is reduced in forward and aft directions.
Other system features include: Adaptive waveform generation (including digital, phase-coded pulse compression); Signal processing and target tracking; track while scan (TWS); low side lobe values (throughout the system's angular coverage); low- and medium-pulse repetition frequency operating modes; frequency agility; Air-to-air and sea surveillance modes; and target radar cross-section display.
The radar operates as a medium- to high-PRF pulse-Doppler, solid-state radar, in E/F-band (3 GHz), incorporating 192 two-way transmit/receive modules that combine to produce a pencil beam, steered as required within the operating 150° sector each side of the aircraft (one side at a time). It is understood that Erieye has some ability to detect aircraft in the 30° sectors fore and aft of the aircraft heading, but has no track capability in this sector.
14.septembrī Starptautiskajā lidostā “Rīga” nosēdās NATO agrīnās brīdināšanas un kontroles sistēmas (Airborne Warning & Control System) lidmašīna, kas ieradusies no Gaisa spēku bāzes Geilenkirhenē, Vācijā.
Latvijā ieradās Sabiedroto spēku augstākās virspavēlniecības Eiropā komandiera vietnieks ģenerālis sers Džeimss Everards (James Everard) un NATO agrīnās brīdināšanas un kontroles spēku komandiere ģenerālmajore Davna Danlopa (Dawn M. Dunlop), pirms tam veicot novērošanas un gaisa telpas kontroles lidojumu no Gaisa spēku bāzes Gailenkirhenē līdz Rīgai.
AWACS ir vienīgie NATO īpašumā esošie gaisakuģi. NATO neizmanto kopējo finansējumu, lai pirktu militāro spēju platformas, proti, kuģus un tankus, jo tā ir katras dalībvalsts individuāla izvēle un atbildība.
Geilenkirhene ir galvenā bāzes vieta Eiropā AWACS lidojumiem, jo no 19 lidmašīnām, kas Eiropā veic lidojumus, 16 bāzējas tieši Geilenkirhenē, vēl trīs atrodas Vašingtonā Lielbritānijā.
Kopš Krimas aneksijas 2014. gadā tiek novērota arī Latvijas gaisa telpa. Reaģējot uz situāciju Ukrainā, NATO Ziemeļatlantijas padome 2014. gada 10. martā ieviesa atbalsta pasākumu plānu, tādējādi demonstrējot alianses vienotību un apņēmību aizsargāt sabiedrotos. Trīs dienas vēlāk, 13. martā, NATO atbalsta pasākumu programmas ietvaros notika pirmais NATO agrīnās brīdināšanas un kontroles sistēmas lidojums no NATO bāzes Geilenkirhenē, Vācijā.
Latvijā AWACS lidmašīna viesojusies divas reizes — 2004. gadā, pirms Latvijas iestāšanās NATO. Savukārt 2016. gada 11. oktobrī, pirmo reizi kopš iestāšanās NATO, Starptautiskajā lidostā “Rīga” piezemējās AWACS lidmašīna, tādējādi demonstrējot pasaulei NATO klātbūtni un lojalitāti Latvijai, Lietuvai, Igaunijai, Polijai un Rumānijai.
AWACS lidmašīnas kopš 2014. gada pavasara ir veikušas vairāk nekā 1000 novērošanas un gaisa telpas kontroles lidojumus.
Par AWACS
“E-3A Sentry” uzbūvēta uz «Boeing 707» bāzes. Lidmašīnas astes galā atrodas radars (tā diametrs 9 m), kas apgādā apkalpi ar datiem, ko analizē datori un citas elektroniskās iekārtas lidmašīnā.
Parasti lidmašīnas lido astoņas stundas aptuveni 10 km augstumā, nosedzot vairāk nekā 400 km novērojamās platības.
Maksimālais ātrums — 853 km/h. Degvielas ietilpība — 89 610 litri. Spēja lidot bez papildu uzpildes — 11 h. Šī modeļa lidmašīnām iespējama uzpilde gaisā, ko veic ar gaisa tankkuģa KC-135 palīdzību. Arī šī lidmašīna izvietota Geilenkirhenē, nodrošinot ilgstošu AWACS uzdevumu izpildi.
Ekipāža — 2 piloti, 1 lidojuma inženieris, 1 navigators, 12 apkalpes locekļi, no kuriem vairāki atrodas taktiskajā operāciju centrā. Modernizētajā AWACS versijā pilotu kabīnē paredzētas 3 vietas, jo tehnoloģiskās inovācijas aizstāj navigatoru.
Gaisakuģa garums — 46,61 m, augstums — 12,73 m, tukšas lidmašīnas masa — 78 000 kg, ekipētas — 147 420 kg.
AWACS nodrošina plaša spektra uzdevumu izpildi, piemēram, gaisa kontroli, pretterorisma akciju atbalstu, evakuācijas, agrās brīdi¬nāšanas un krīzes reaģēšanas operācijas.
AWACS bija svarīga loma NATO operācijās ASV pēc 2001. gada 11. septembra terorakta, pēc viesuļvētras “Katrina” 2005. gadā. Arī 2010. gada zemestrīces Haiti un plūdu seku novēršanā Pakistānā 2010. gadā. AWACS sniedz gaisa atbalstu, lai padarītu drošākus NATO samitus un svarīgus starptautiskus pasākumus, piemēram, ASV prezidenta vizīti 2016. gadā Vācijā, arī Eiropas futbola čempionātu 2016. gadā Francijā.

Checking out one of my (20 + yo) monochrome CCDs for an anticipated narrowband color shot of the Heart & Soul Nebulae, the attached shows how the Heart Nebula appeared using an h-alpha filter on an MX-716 CCD with an very old SLR (film based) 55mm focal length lens.
This imaging rig is piggybacked on the side of a vintage 1970 8-inch, f/7 Criterion newt. which also carries an ED80T CF (i.e. an Orion 80MM, f/6 carbon-fiber, triplet apochromatic refractor) with a 0.8X Televue field flattener / focal reducer, and an old Celestron 80MM, f/5 achromat used for guiding with an ZWO ASI290MC under PHD2. The entire setup rides on a Losmandy G-11 running a Gemini 2 control system. While imaging the attached, simultaneously I also imaged the Heart Nebula itself, as well as the cluster (Melotte 15) at the center using the 80MM apo. & the 8-inch newt. respectively, both using twin unmodded Canon 700D (t5i) DSLRs controlled by APT, but have yet to examine or process any of that data.
The images in the attached composite show approximately 1/3 of the FOV of the CCD & camera lens, and as presented here they are a stack of fifty, 5-minute exposures (not including dark & flat calibration frames). Quickly processed in PixInsight and PaintshopPro. I have also inverted the monochrome shot and produced starless versions of each.
Although I may have to wait until next fall to add the Oxygen III, Sulfur II & Red, Green & Clue filter exposures to complete this project, given the reasonable results, in the meantime I look forward to trying this setup on some of the brighter nebulae this summer.
Happy Valentine's Day To All !!!

"Apollo spacecraft simulator built by Honeywell for testing of its Apollo Stabilization and Control System (SCS) was described as the largest and most sensitive device of its kind. Cold-gas reaction jets maneuvered the huge circular platform at the company's Aeronautical Division, Minneapolis, as it simulated characteristics of the Apollo command module in flight to and from the moon. A single stainless steel bearing (center) resting on a paper-thin cushion of gas supported some eight metric tons (nine U.S. tons) of equipment, virtually isolating the platform from friction and vibration. Engineer Leonard Aske inspected one of the jets (upper right) while engineer Dick McKinley adjusted part of the bearing mechanism. Both SCS and simulator were developed for North American Aviation under NASA guidance."

The interface of the Processing app I developed to control the lighting system for the Luminato 2008 installation that Media Lab Toronto worked on.
See a video of the installation in action: www.vimeo.com/3926537
The Processing sketch received sound level data from a PD patch that David McCallum created and created lighting effect based on that information. It then created the lighting effects (like waves, ripples and lightning bolts tiggered by sound peaks form the crowd) and passed the individual light information on to a DMX gateway created by Gabe Sawhney.
Object Details: Eight numbered sunspots are currently on the Sun's Earth facing side, the most in over 4 years. The attached composite shows how four of the largest appeared last Friday thru both a shorter focal length & a long focal-length scope, albeit with the seeing varying somewhere between terrible & horrible - lol.
At the time, the newest, AR2911, had just became visible on the limb and displayed quite a lot of faculae (i.e. the brighter, hotter areas surrounding the spot), while sunspots AR2907, AR2908 & AR2909 formed a 'chain' over 240,000 miles (nearly 400,000 km) long !
Image Details: Taken as short video clips from which selected frames are stacked and processed, given the camera sensor's crop factor, the 80mm 'full-disk' image is a composite of two fovs while that, and all the 8-inch images, are resized down to approximately half their original size / resolution.
In addition to the Baader white-light solar filters and luminance filters, as can be seen at bottom, I also utilized Methane (CH4), Ultraviolet, & Infrared filters (in place of the lum filter) for additional shots thru the 8-inch newt.
As is often the case in our observatory, the scopes were mounted on and tracked with a Losmandy G-11 running a Gemini 2 control system. Processed using a combination of Registax & Paint Shop Pro, as presented here the entire composite has been resized down to 3x HD resolution.
It should be noted that Spaceweather reported today (Dec. 21) that on December 20th at 11:36 UT sunspot AR2908 released an M1.9-class solar flare which seems to have produced a somewhat Earth-directed Coronal Mass Ejection. Impact from this CME is expected to make a glancing blow of Earth's magnetic field and thus MAY produce minor G1-class geomagnetic activity on December 23rd - stay tuned !
Wishing a Happy Solstice To All !!!

Object Details: Sunspots (right) AR2740 & (left, on limb) AR2741 as they currently appear from our home's observatory in upstate, NY. Both are larger than the Earth and AR2740 is actually the return of the same region which transited a few weeks ago and has survived fairly intact. (Images of it from the previous rotation, when it was numbered as AR2738, can be found at the following links www.flickr.com/photos/homcavobservatory/46738306615/
www.flickr.com/photos/homcavobservatory/40615502103/ ).
Not very active during it's last transit, this one may differ in that although having just rotated into visibility during the last few days, it has already released an M1 class flare. Hopefully it, or AR2741, will become reasonably geo-effective and bring us an auroral display in the near future - stay tuned!

Six advisory signs will operate through a central control system to provide real-time train crossing information — indicating if the crossing is open or closed — so drivers can make informed decisions for travel in Langley, Surrey and the Township of Langley. The signs will specify the train’s location and travel direction, enabling drivers to use alternate crossing options at adjacent railway overpasses, in order to avoid traffic delays. In addition to reducing traffic congestion and minimizing greenhouse gas emissions due to decreased vehicle idling times, the signs will increase travel efficiency and mobility for emergency vehicles.
14.septembrī Starptautiskajā lidostā “Rīga” nosēdās NATO agrīnās brīdināšanas un kontroles sistēmas (Airborne Warning & Control System) lidmašīna, kas ieradusies no Gaisa spēku bāzes Geilenkirhenē, Vācijā.
Latvijā ieradās Sabiedroto spēku augstākās virspavēlniecības Eiropā komandiera vietnieks ģenerālis sers Džeimss Everards (James Everard) un NATO agrīnās brīdināšanas un kontroles spēku komandiere ģenerālmajore Davna Danlopa (Dawn M. Dunlop), pirms tam veicot novērošanas un gaisa telpas kontroles lidojumu no Gaisa spēku bāzes Gailenkirhenē līdz Rīgai.
AWACS ir vienīgie NATO īpašumā esošie gaisakuģi. NATO neizmanto kopējo finansējumu, lai pirktu militāro spēju platformas, proti, kuģus un tankus, jo tā ir katras dalībvalsts individuāla izvēle un atbildība.
Geilenkirhene ir galvenā bāzes vieta Eiropā AWACS lidojumiem, jo no 19 lidmašīnām, kas Eiropā veic lidojumus, 16 bāzējas tieši Geilenkirhenē, vēl trīs atrodas Vašingtonā Lielbritānijā.
Kopš Krimas aneksijas 2014. gadā tiek novērota arī Latvijas gaisa telpa. Reaģējot uz situāciju Ukrainā, NATO Ziemeļatlantijas padome 2014. gada 10. martā ieviesa atbalsta pasākumu plānu, tādējādi demonstrējot alianses vienotību un apņēmību aizsargāt sabiedrotos. Trīs dienas vēlāk, 13. martā, NATO atbalsta pasākumu programmas ietvaros notika pirmais NATO agrīnās brīdināšanas un kontroles sistēmas lidojums no NATO bāzes Geilenkirhenē, Vācijā.
Latvijā AWACS lidmašīna viesojusies divas reizes — 2004. gadā, pirms Latvijas iestāšanās NATO. Savukārt 2016. gada 11. oktobrī, pirmo reizi kopš iestāšanās NATO, Starptautiskajā lidostā “Rīga” piezemējās AWACS lidmašīna, tādējādi demonstrējot pasaulei NATO klātbūtni un lojalitāti Latvijai, Lietuvai, Igaunijai, Polijai un Rumānijai.
AWACS lidmašīnas kopš 2014. gada pavasara ir veikušas vairāk nekā 1000 novērošanas un gaisa telpas kontroles lidojumus.
Par AWACS
“E-3A Sentry” uzbūvēta uz «Boeing 707» bāzes. Lidmašīnas astes galā atrodas radars (tā diametrs 9 m), kas apgādā apkalpi ar datiem, ko analizē datori un citas elektroniskās iekārtas lidmašīnā.
Parasti lidmašīnas lido astoņas stundas aptuveni 10 km augstumā, nosedzot vairāk nekā 400 km novērojamās platības.
Maksimālais ātrums — 853 km/h. Degvielas ietilpība — 89 610 litri. Spēja lidot bez papildu uzpildes — 11 h. Šī modeļa lidmašīnām iespējama uzpilde gaisā, ko veic ar gaisa tankkuģa KC-135 palīdzību. Arī šī lidmašīna izvietota Geilenkirhenē, nodrošinot ilgstošu AWACS uzdevumu izpildi.
Ekipāža — 2 piloti, 1 lidojuma inženieris, 1 navigators, 12 apkalpes locekļi, no kuriem vairāki atrodas taktiskajā operāciju centrā. Modernizētajā AWACS versijā pilotu kabīnē paredzētas 3 vietas, jo tehnoloģiskās inovācijas aizstāj navigatoru.
Gaisakuģa garums — 46,61 m, augstums — 12,73 m, tukšas lidmašīnas masa — 78 000 kg, ekipētas — 147 420 kg.
AWACS nodrošina plaša spektra uzdevumu izpildi, piemēram, gaisa kontroli, pretterorisma akciju atbalstu, evakuācijas, agrās brīdi¬nāšanas un krīzes reaģēšanas operācijas.
AWACS bija svarīga loma NATO operācijās ASV pēc 2001. gada 11. septembra terorakta, pēc viesuļvētras “Katrina” 2005. gadā. Arī 2010. gada zemestrīces Haiti un plūdu seku novēršanā Pakistānā 2010. gadā. AWACS sniedz gaisa atbalstu, lai padarītu drošākus NATO samitus un svarīgus starptautiskus pasākumus, piemēram, ASV prezidenta vizīti 2016. gadā Vācijā, arī Eiropas futbola čempionātu 2016. gadā Francijā.

From Ashley D:
Picture #1 tries to demonstrate the way in which the door access control systems, which is a stable artifact, in South Hall is, in my opinion, broken and not necessarily used in an uncommon way. The intent behind installing these devices is to restrict access to iSchool staff, faculty and students only. It is the only logical reason for investing in these devices.
As the intent is to restrict access, the 2 options available are to have human security personnel or these devices.
The advantage of these devices is that they are less intrusive and non-discriminatory. Hence, it seems reasonable to delegate this job to a non-human artifact.
However, the trade-off is that they do not fulfill their task as expected. It is very possible to allow access to outsiders, which is why at the start of each semester we get an email from Meg reminding us about our responsibilities towards taking care of the lounges. I think this demonstrates the 'shift of responsibility' aspect with an emphasis on each human entities moral values.
I use this example because in my previous place of employment a similar system was in place, but there were human guards, as well as machines, to ensure that each and every person swiped in before entering.
What (missing) entities must it be enrolled with to make it what it more typically is?
The missing entities that could be enrolled are both technical artifacts. Something like an automatic door and a sensor, like the one placed near the vending machine (Picture #2) to detect the presence of more than one person, could be used to supplement the social and moral responsibilities of the human entities thereby enforcing a moral code on everyone without discrimination. Something similar to the seat belt.

Apollo 14 closeout photo of Reaction Control System (RCS) Quadrant no. 4, LM-8 (Antares). Photograph was taken 27 January, 1971, inside the Spacecraft-Lunar Module Adapter (SLA), at Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A). The inner surface of an SLA panel is visible to the left, the white circular S-Band Steerable Antenna is to the back, and the triangular outline & protective cover of/over the Lunar Module Pilot's (LMP) window can be made out at the upper right corner. Excellent detail is visible on three of the four Marquardt R-4D thruster nozzles.
This photo was probably taken during the same closeout photo documentation ‘session’:

"The deployment of the flag of the United States on the surface of the moon is captured on film during the first Apollo 11 lunar landing mission. Here, astronaut Neil A. Armstrong, commander, stands on the left at the flag's staff. Astronaut Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., lunar module pilot, is also pictured. The picture was taken from film exposed by the 16mm Data Acquisition Camera (DAC) which was mounted in the Lunar Module (LM). While astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin descended in the Lunar Module (LM) "Eagle" to explore the Sea of Tranquility region of the moon, astronaut Michael Collins, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) "Columbia" in lunar orbit."

Object Details: As weather allows I continue to follow the progression of the two large sunspots currently visible. To that end, the attached is a composite of images showing the Sun as it appeared two days ago from our home's observatory. At the time these images were taken, AR2741 was moving toward a more potentially geo-effective position, while AR2740 continued to break apart with a light bridge visible between the two largest portions of the umbra.
Note: Although even when not raining here, the transparency & seeing conditions have naturally varied greatly from day to day for those times that I have been able to image these groups during the past month. Although some of the images taken on days of better seeing could have been processed more aggressively to bring out additional detail, I've purposely tried to keep the post-processing fairly similar for all solar images taken during this period. Albeit, this has also somewhat limited the processing's ability to enhance detail to that of the lowest common denominator of atmospheric conditions, I believe it is best from the standpoint of comparison.
Therefore, with the goal of illustrating differences in appearance over time in mind; additional images of these groups over the last few weeks using the same equipment can be found at the following links:

(Note: Having survived an entire rotation around the Sun fairly intact, the following images were taken when AR2740 was visible during the previous rotation, and as is traditional, carried a different designation (i.e. AR2738))

Image Details: The images which make up the attached composite were taken by Jay Edwards at the HomCav Observatory on May 8, 2019 using a ZWO ASI290MC planetary camera / auto-guider through (left) an an Orion 80mm, f/6 carbon-fiber apochromatic triplet refractor (i.e. an ED80T CF). and (right) an 8-in, f/7 Criterion newtonian reflector. The 8-inch scope used a homemade off-axis Baader material white-light solar filter, while the 80mm was fitted with a full aperture Kendrick white-light filter. These scopes were tracked using a Losmandy G-11 mount running a Gemini 2 control system.
As presented here the images have been processed & cropped slightly colorized for aesthetics, and the entire composite has been resized down to HD resolution.
Extra Thick, 1/2" or more deep, acrylic letters mounted with drilled studs and stand offs providing a nice shadow effect. Colored logo and text provides a good contrast with the off-white interior wall. Letters were mounted high towards the ceiling so that the signage is visible from all cubicles inside the big working area.
