In the early hours of September 10, after several weeks of delays, the SpaceX Dragon capsule took off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, carrying four private astronauts on the historic Polaris Dawn mission. This is the first step towards ground-breaking civilian space exploration, as the crew will attempt the first commercial civilian spacewalk. This ambitious mission is designed as the first of three under the Polaris program funded by billionaire Jared Isaacman.

Mondschatz Space Jewelry: Miniature Moon around neck and finger https://citymagazine.si/en/space-jewelry-mondschatz-miniature-moon-around-the-neck-and-fingers/ Mon, 06 Feb 2017 07:03:38 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=287299

In the 1946 film It's a Wonderful Life, George Bailey asks Mary if she wants the moon and tells her to just say so and he'll throw a lasso around her and pull her down to Earth. Today it's a little easier, because Sonja Waldraff has made jewelry that is a mini replica of the Moon. How much, as evidenced by the fact that the Mondschatz space jewelry collection was created on the basis of NASA's topographical map of the Moon.

No, these are not the spacesuits from the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, this is a new model of clothing for astronauts from the American space agency Nasa. The new spacesuit is named Boeing Starliner, after the spacecraft that astronauts will use for trips to space in the near future.

Planetarium Ljubljana has opened on the Ajdovščina platform in Ljubljana, a unique hall for 30 people with a digital projection system, in which we can learn about space and astronomy. Under the white dome, content on astronomy, space and biology will be broadcast. The planetarium will remain at this location for at least two years. An open house will be held on October 21, 2016, followed by a premiere screening a day later.

Elon Musk is moving us to Mars! Will humans already be an interplanetary species in 2022? https://citymagazine.si/en/elon-muska-is-moving-us-to-mars-we-will-be-humans-by-2022-interplanetary-species/ Wed, 28 Sep 2016 20:14:31 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=257009

Once an invader, always an invader. Elon Musk, founder of Tesla Motors and SpaceX, is moving humanity to Mars! At the International Nautical Congress (IAC), the technological visionary presented his plans to colonize the red planet, which could be reached by the ITS spacecraft (SpaceX) in just 30 days. 200 thousand dollars will have to be paid for the "air ticket" to Mars. But Tusk warns. The journey is likely to be very dangerous and travelers must be prepared to die for it. The first vessel to go to Mars is said to carry the Heart of Gold, based on the fictional vessel of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book. Will humans already be an interplanetary garden in 2022? We recommend watching the presentation video!

Voyager - the golden disc that teaches aliens about our civilization can be yours https://citymagazine.si/en/voyager-the-gold-plate-that-teaches-the-aliens-about-our-civilization-can-be-yours/ Wed, 28 Sep 2016 06:12:48 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=256798

Want a replica of the golden gramophone record that explains humanity to aliens? In 1977, the American agency NASA had a big dream. They wanted to find the Aliens and make contact with them. With this purpose, the probes Voyager I and Voyager II were sent into space, which also carried a time capsule in the form of a golden gramophone record, which carries images of our civilization and teaches about humanity. Among other things, about how we reproduce, how we transport ourselves and what we eat. We greet the aliens in 55 languages (also in Serbo-Croatian, which was the official language of Yugoslavia at the time: "We wish you all the best from our planet"), and they can also play different genres of music and typical sounds of our planet. There are playback instructions on the back of the disc. On the 40th anniversary of the launch, you can for approx. For 90 euros, consider the jubilee replica of The Voyager Golden Record: 40th Anniversary Edition, which also comes with a book.

FAST: The Chinese with the largest telescope to hunt for aliens https://citymagazine.si/en/fast-chinese-with-the-biggest-telescope-to-hunt-for-aliens/ Wed, 28 Sep 2016 06:10:53 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=256724

The Chinese have a clear message for the Aliens. "You can run, but you can't hide!" In the Chinese province of Guizhou, a 500-meter spherical radio telescope recently began operating, taking over the status of the largest from the Arecibo observatory in Puerto Rico. It will survey as much as twice the area of the sky, and the parabolic dish will be used to study the universe and search for intelligent life outside our galaxy, and astronomers hope that it will also fill the gaps in the knowledge and understanding of our planet.

The Limits of Humanity: How Far Can We Go in Space? https://citymagazine.si/en/the-limits-of-humanity-how-far-we-can-go-in-space/ Sat, 21 May 2016 03:40:46 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=231057

In the midst of the exponential growth of technology, the exploration of the seas and the Solar System, the hopes and fears brought about by the development of artificial intelligence, 3D printers, promises of head transplants and space jumps, we can ask ourselves what are the limits of humanity. How far can we go in space? Will we ever be immortal? In the case of uncontrolled, greedy development, the fate of the people in the Matrix awaits us (and maybe even without the savior Neot?) We do not know all the answers to these questions. But we know how the universe is. Space exploration is extremely limited to us, regardless of the technology we discover in the future.

Just when we thought that the northern lights (aurora borealis) couldn't get any more exciting, NASA surprises us with a video of this natural phenomenon, which has published a video showing the characteristic reddish-greenish light that usually illuminates the sky of the North and South Poles , we admire from the air, and in 4K technology. Check out what the Northern Lights look like from space!

What you see in the photo is the first flower that grew in space! Some time ago, we already reported that lettuce and wheat have grown on the International Space Station (ISS), and this is the first time that a flower has grown and bloomed. It is an orange zinnia with 13 petals.

The universe is so vast that it is practically impossible to imagine how big it is. But Pablo Carlos Budassa somehow managed to squeeze it into a single photo! He did this with the help of NASA photographs and logarithmic maps of the universe produced at Princeton University.

Even the universe is drowning in garbage. The American space agency Nasa is currently tracking around 20,000 pieces of waste materials, spent rocket parts, broken satellites and tons of other waste larger than a tennis ball. All these objects are moving in space at a speed of 27,360 km/h. In addition, we list about 500,000 other pieces of garbage between the size of a tennis ball and a marble. Where does this lead?

The universe has always fired the human imagination. The universe seems boundless and every year we chip away at a bit of the unknown above us. After nine years of travel, this year, for example, we only reached the dwarf planet Pluto and were rewarded with photos that went down in history. But this was not the only space milestone in 2015 caught in the lens. We present to you the most fascinating photos taken from space in 2015.

The universe, infinite finitude. Earthlings have been actively researching it and trying to understand it for more than half a century. This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of America's first steps in space, and fifty years since we were able to experience another world through the magic of photography. So the Moon is no longer a slice of Swiss cheese and Jupiter is no longer a tiny speck of light in the night sky. Today we present fifteen of the most famous photographs of space.

Space Suite – extraterrestrial experience at the Swiss hotel Kameha Grand Zurich https://citymagazine.si/en/space-suite-extraterrestrial-experience-in-the-swiss-hotel-kameha-grand-zurich/ Sat, 10 Oct 2015 03:31:12 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=189351

The Space Suite at the Hotel Kameha Grand Zürich gives guests a taste of what life is like on a space station. The hotel room was transformed into a virtual space station by the German artist, adventurer and future astronaut Michael Najjar. He decorated the walls, floor, and ceiling with space motifs captured by the Hubble Space Telescope, rocket propulsion inspired the ceiling lighting, and the artist filled the living room with space travel-themed books, movies, and audiobooks.
