Esas canciones que te dan paz

https://youtu.be/mOJYO_z6Egw Y es que Nobuo Uematsu es un puto genio, y humilde. Los final fantasy tocan tantos temas humanos que es inevitable no identificarse con algún personaje, algún lugar o alguna canción. Siempre me apetece escuchar esta canción cuando noto que algo se acerca a su fin, esa intranquilidad que te entra en el cuerpo pero a la vez tu resolución es clara. Así debió sentirse Yuna en el Pasaje de la Purgación viendo sus ideales traicionados, que su padre se había sacrificado para nada, que sólo podía confiar en sus guardianes y por su culpa estaban sufriendo. Pero sacó valor entre tanto temor, decepción, frustración e intranquilidad y tomó una decisión, seguir adelante. Y Nobuo Uematsu plasmó a la perfección todo eso en esta obra maestra de dos minutos y medio de duración.Gracias por dejarnos una obra maestra que nos estimula cuando algo toca a su fin en nuestras vidas.

What’s Up for October 2016?

What’s Up for October? Moon phases, Astronomy Day, meteors and Saturn!

The new moon phase starts the month on October 1. Of course, the new moon isn’t visible, because it’s between Earth and the sun, and the unlit side is facing Earth. 

Night by night the slender crescent gets bigger and higher in the sky and easier to see just after sunset. On the 3rd and 4th, the moon will pass just above Venus!

A week later on the 9th the moon has traveled through one quarter of its 29-day orbit around Earth, and we see the first quarter phase. Also look for Mars just below the moon.

Join us in celebrating International Observe the Moon Night Saturday, October 8th, with your local astronomy club or science center. Conveniently, the 8th is also Fall Astronomy Day, celebrated internationally by astronomy clubs since 1973.

One week later on the 16th the moon reaches opposition, or the full moon phase, when the moon and the sun are on opposite sides of Earth. And the sun completely illuminates the moon as seen from Earth. 

During this phase, the moon rises in the east just as the sun is setting in the west. Overnight, the moon crosses the sky and sets at dawn.

A week later, on the 22nd of October, the last quarter moon rises at midnight. Later, the pretty and bright Beehive Cluster will be visible near the moon until dawn.

To wrap up the month, 29 days after the last new moon we start the lunar cycle all over again with another new moon phase on October 30th. Will you be able to spot the one-day old moon on Halloween? It will be a challenge!

There are three meteor showers in October–the Draconids, the Taurids and the Orionids. Try for the Draconids on October 8th.  

See the Taurids on October 10th. 

The Orionids will be marred by the full moon on the 21st, but all three meteor showers will offer some possible bright meteors.

Finally, you’ll have an especially pretty view of Saturn, when it forms a straight line with Venus and the red star Antares on the 27th.

You can catch up on NASA’s lunar mission, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, the Cassini Mission to Saturn and all of our missions at www.nasa.gov.

The Start of Cassini’s Grand Finale

Cue drumroll…

For the first time ever, our Cassini spacecraft dove through the narrow gap between Saturn and its rings on April 26. At 5 a.m. EDT, Cassini crossed the ring plane with its science instruments turned on and collecting data. 

During this dive, the spacecraft was not in contact with Earth. The first opportunity to regain contact with the spacecraft is expected around 3 a.m. EDT on April 27.

This area between Saturn and its rings has never been explored by a spacecraft before. What we learn from these daring final orbits will further our understanding of how giant planets, and planetary systems everywhere, form and evolve.

So, you might be asking…how did this spacecraft maneuver its orbit between Saturn and its rings? Well…let us explain!

On April 22, Cassini made its 127th and final close approach to Saturn’s moon Titan. The flyby put the spacecraft on course for its dramatic last act, known as the Grand Finale. 

As the spacecraft passed over Titan, the moon’s gravity bent its path, reshaping the robotic probe’s orbit slightly so that instead of passing just outside Saturn’s main rings, Cassini would begin a series of 22 dives between the rings and the planet.

With this assist, Cassini received a large increase in velocity of approximately 1,925 mph with respect to Saturn.

This final chapter of exploration and discovery is in many ways like a brand-new mission. Twenty-two times, the Cassini spacecraft will dive through the unexplored space between Saturn and its rings. What we learn from these ultra-close passes over the planet could be some of the most exciting revelations ever returned by the long-lived spacecraft.

Throughout these daring maneuvers, updates will be posted on social media at:

A Nearly Ice-Free Northwest Passage

In August 2016, tourists on a luxury cruise departed Seward Alaska and steered toward the waterways of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. The excursion is one example of the growing human presence in an increasingly ice-free Northwest Passage—the famed high-latitude sea route that connects the northern Atlantic and Pacific oceans. In mid-August 2016, the southern route through the Passage was nearly ice-free.

For most of the year, the Northwest Passage is frozen and impassible. But during the summer months, the ice melts and breaks up to varying degrees. The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi NPPsatellite captured the top image of the Northwest Passage on August 9, 2016. A path of open water can be traced along most of the distance from the Amundsen Gulf to Baffin Bay.

“It was a warm winter and spring,” said NASA sea ice scientist Walt Meier. That means that the seasonal ice—ice that grew since the end of last summer, and the type found throughout most of the Passage—is thinner than normal. Thinner ice can melt more easily, break up, and move out of the channels.

A scattering of broken ice is visible just east of Victoria Island. “It looks pretty thin and disintegrating,” Meier said. “I think an ice-strengthened ship could get through without too much trouble.”

The open water this year flows along the southern route, or “Amundsen route.” It’s not unusual for the southern route to open up to some degree, as it is more protected than the northern route and receives less sea ice directly from the Arctic Ocean.

At some point in almost every summer since 2007, conditions along the southern passage have been fairly open. There have been exceptions; the second image shows the Northwest Passage on August 9, 2013, as observed by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua satellite. Ice that year was relatively extensive. Turn on the image comparison tool to see the difference.

What’s left of the ice in 2016 is opening up fast. Meier expects that the Northwest Passage will open up completely in the next couple of weeks. Moreover, a strong Arctic cyclone appears to be approaching the archipelago. It could push the ice around and further open up still-blocked channels. Or, it could have the opposite effect and push in ice from the north.

Sigo drogado

Y es que el amor es sólo eso, puras reacciones bioquímicas en nuestro organismo, bajo la influencia de "drogas" tales como la oxitocina, la dopamina y la noradrenalina. Ya escribiré más largo y tendido sobre este tema. Aún así, aún sabiendo que el amor es pura biología evolutiva y que no tiene nada de especial, quiero vivirlo. Quizá por ello es que, después de dos meses de nuestros últimos besos, he sentido celos cuando he visto que le has dado a seguir a un chico y el te ha dado a seguir esta tarde en Instagram. Un indicio bastante claro, aunque no definitivo, de que me has vuelto a mentir como aquella vez, de que no tienes tan pocas ganas de estar con chicos como me has dicho, y que sigues usando el tinder, probablemente buscando ese amor que tanta falta te hace y que lo buscas de manera subconsciente. Quizá no es que no hayas superado a tu ex, quizá es que simplemente yo no soy ese chico que te ha hecho sentir especial, y no has hecho más que mentirme. Es una posibilidad bastante plausible que manejo y, sin embargo, aquí estoy, pensando en ti, sintiendo celos y escribiendo este post por ti. Me siento idiota. Supongo que sigo intoxicado. Pero no puedo decirte nada ni reclamarte nada, total, tú y yo sólo somos un proyecto de amigos, y nuestro pasado se reduce a aquel chico que conocí y me cayó cada vez mejor hasta tal punto que nos liamos varias veces e incluso hicimos el amor. Me encantó nuestra última cita, cuando me saludaste directamente con un beso. Me gustaba como iba la cosa y queria que fuera despacio, pero existe la Ley de Murphy, y parece ser que yo estoy condenado a sufrirla en el amor de manera vitalicia. Total, qué más da, amar a alguien es simplemente estar bajo los efectos de hormonas, unas hormonas que se pueden activar con millones de personas distintas y tú sigues el Principio de Mediocridad, no tienes nada de especial ni de único hasta que se demuestre lo contrario. No obstante aquí estoy, echándote en falta como si no siguieras tal principio, aferrándome a una vana esperanza de que el viernes vengas a mi casa, y poder volver a sentir tu cuerpo. Quizá sólo estoy a falta de cariño y me ilusiono y aferro con facilidad. No lo sé. Sé que te olvidaré, pero quiero que sea pronto.

Paso de ser adulto

Faltan dos semanas para las fiestas del pueblo. Prometí comportarme, tener un comportamiento responsable y ejemplar, como siempre desde hace mucho tiempo. A quién pretendo engañar?. Quiero desfasar, quiero cogérmela buena, quiero reírme por todo, quiero despojarme de la rutina aburrida, ansiosa y frustrante que llevo encima. Oda a la adolescencia! Oda a la vida!, me esperan 4 botellas de JB para mi solo ^^, ya hay ganas de ir de peñas con mis amigos, y sobre todo de verte a ti, mejor amiga, sinvergüenza que llevo sin verte desde septiembre, necesito un abrazo tuyo, necesito de tus locuras, tus risas y tus bobadas, y también de tus consejos 😘

Y eso que iba a comprar ropa... Feliz con mi nueva adquisición!
