Happy anniversary!!

I'm am one year in the air with this blog. More than 1600 people visited my blog this year from all over the world. Nice to see how I can touch people's life!!!
I will keep posting my findings and learnings next year.

Solargraph installed

Today I installed my cans "solargraphs". Always an exciting moment not knowing what the end results will be after 6 months. One of the locations is our local Abbey of Averbode. The can was put at a certain height so people will not touch it by getting curious ... hopefully. The other location is againt my garden house, the same as last year.

Solargraphs (2)

I'm ready with my two cans! Both openings are sealed and will be opened in dec 21 after the cans are put in position.

Solargraph (1)

We are heading december 21, so I'm preparing my cans with photo paper. Thuis year I will install two solargraphs.

ISON or ISOFF

Today the comet ISON was moving towards it's closest distance to the sun, perihelion. Less then 5MM km from the sun and with a speed of more than 300km/s the comet should pass by and show up as the spectacle of the year. Listening live to NASA hangout and looking at SOHO and SDO pictures it's probably clear the comet evaporated. So no ISON but rather ISOF. It was a nice learning the past months and for that see also my tweets with nice linkages on pictures and websites.

A Human Adventure : The Nasa exhebition in Utrecht

Today I visited the exhebition "A Human Adventure" In Utrecht - The Netherlands. Great exhebition with a lot of models as well as unique space "pieces". A must see for those who are interested into space.
