Planetary Parade: How to Watch the Jan 21 Alignment!

Tonight, January 21, witness a rare planetary parade! Look southwest after sunset to see Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn aligned. Use binoculars for the best view. Clear skies are essential, so check your local weather. Don’t miss this celestial event—it won’t occur again for years! 🌌✨

What is a Planetary Parade?

A planetary parade occurs when several planets appear to line up in the sky from Earth’s perspective. While not a perfect straight line, the planets will be visible along the ecliptic, the path the Sun traces through the sky.

When and Where to Look

  • Time: Shortly after sunset, as the sky begins to darken.
  • Direction: Look toward the southwestern horizon.
  • Duration: The planets will be visible for about 1-2 hours before some set below the horizon.

Mercury and Venus will appear low on the horizon, so a clear, unobstructed view is crucial. Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn will be higher up, making them easier to spot.

How to See the Planets

  • Naked Eye: All five planets will be visible to the unaided eye, but some, like Mercury, may be faint.
  • Binoculars or Telescope: These tools enhance the view, especially for Mercury and the details of Saturn’s rings or Jupiter’s moons.

Tips for Viewing

  1. Check the Weather: Clear skies are essential, so consult your local forecast.
  2. Choose a Dark Location: Avoid city lights to reduce light pollution.
  3. Arrive Early: The planets closest to the horizon, like Mercury and Venus, will set quickly.
  4. Use Apps: Sky-watching apps like Star Walk or SkySafari can help locate the planets precisely.

Why It’s Special

Planetary alignments are rare, with varying combinations of planets aligning every few years. Tonight’s event offers a unique chance to view five planets at once, something that won’t happen again until later this decade.

Don’t miss this awe-inspiring celestial show! 🌌

Global Lighthouse Network

Smart, sustainable manufacturing: 3 lessons from the Global Lighthouse Network Launched in 2018, when more than 70% of factories struggled to scale digital transformation beyond isolated pilots, the Global Lighthouse Network set out to identify the world’s most advanced production sites and create a shared learning journey to up-level the global manufacturing community. In the past seven years, the network has grown from 16 to 201 industrial sites in more than 30 countries and 35 sectors, including the latest cohort of 13 new sites. This growing community of organizations is setting new standards for operational excellence, leveraging advanced technologies to drive growth, productivity, resilience and environmental sustainability. But what exactly is a Global Lighthouse and what has the network achieved? What is the Global Lighthouse Network? The Global Lighthouse Network is a community of operational facilities and value chains that harness digital technologies at scale to ac...

Multi-Modal Data

Multi-Task Federated Split Learning Across Multi-Modal Data with Privacy Preservation With the advancement of federated learning (FL), there is a growing demand for schemes that support multi-task learning on multi-modal data while ensuring robust privacy protection, especially in applications like intelligent connected vehicles. Traditional FL schemes often struggle with the complexities introduced by multi-modal data and diverse task requirements, such as increased communication overhead and computational burdens. In this paper, we propose a novel privacy-preserving scheme for multi-task federated split learning across multi-modal data (MTFSLaMM). Our approach leverages the principles of split learning to partition models between clients and servers, employing a modular design that reduces computational demands on resource-constrained clients. To ensure data privacy, we integrate differential privacy to protect intermediate data and employ homomorphic encryption to safeguard client m...

Quantum Network Nodes

An operating system for executing applications on quantum network nodes The goal of future quantum networks is to enable new internet applications that are impossible to achieve using only classical communication . Up to now, demonstrations of quantum network applications  and functionalities   on quantum processors have been performed in ad hoc software that was specific to the experimental setup, programmed to perform one single task (the application experiment) directly into low-level control devices using expertise in experimental physics.  Here we report on the design and implementation of an architecture capable of executing quantum network applications on quantum processors in platform-independent high-level software. We demonstrate the capability of the architecture to execute applications in high-level software by implementing it as a quantum network operating system-QNodeOS-and executing test programs, including a delegated computation from a client to a server ...
