Agenda and Minutes

Biosphere 2, with sections labeled  | Image: Biosphere 2 Organization

 

1. Announcements

• None
  

2. Updates and status reports

• None
  

3. Reading and discussion

• Readings:
• We read from https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/9/2/572. We read up to section 2.2.2 and can start there next time if attendance indicates.
• We will read from https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html depending on attendance.
• We previously started discussing the "SatType scheme" page 
• ... at https://www.planet4589.org  >  https://planet4589.org/space/index.html  >  https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/web/intro > https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/web/intro/type.html. We are up to the "Byte 3" description and can start there next time.
  
• NOTE: the "SatType scheme" page describes the column labeled "Type" in the relevant tables, particularly https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/data/cat/satcat.html (thanks to Planet4589 for clarifying this a bit in the documentation).
• We earlier started: https://www.newthingsunderthesun.com/pub/4xnyepnn/release/9. We read up to "In their paper, firms use these technologies to produce a fixed amount of output every period." MC later requested putting our comments in the minutes for later review - good idea. Maybe we can time share across 2 readings next time, and thus get to some material from this source.
• https://towardsdatascience.com/understanding-auc-roc-curve-68b2303cc9c5 might be good to read at some point. We should evaluate that.
  

• Here are some generic questions about articles (and videos):
• What is the source?
• What is the most significant advance in the human knowledge presented in the paper?
• Why is that advance important?
• What important questions arise from the paper for future research?
• What important questions would it be nice if the paper answered, but does not answer?
• What does the paper present that is novel (no one else has provided that before)?
• What is the relevance of the paper to our satellite research goals?
• Questions from the group?

 3. Completed readings include:

• 3/17/23: We read https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html.
• We finished section 6 of MR paper (C:\Users\jdberleant\Dropbox\research\SpaceTravelMetric-b6-5-16\PapersAndPresentations\byOthers\MatthewRoughanDraft.pdf). This completes the parts that we planned to read. 
• Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9o66fH_sgo (about MOXIE device which converts CO2 to oxygen). We then read a bit more about MOXIE on wikipedia.
• Https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2019/07/we-need-new-science-progress/594946 on "progress studies." Completed 9/30/22.
• Ryan et al., "A Forgotten Moment in Physiology: the Lovelace Woman in Space Program (1960-1962)", 2009. Completed 7/22/22.
• Various previous papers.

At the entrance to Lava River Cave (Flagstaff, AZ) there was this map of the cave.

1. Announcements

• Welcome to AM and BC. AM is interested in updating the analysis of the data in our OAS article for a new one.
  

2. Reading and discussion

• Readings: 
• Today: We read https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html, which seemed to suggest https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html as an obvious candidate to read since that is for the data that probably needs to be analyzed to update our last article.
• Next time: we will read from https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/astrolist.html (assuming AM can attend, otherwise it would make more sense to go back and do the page on "SatType scheme").
• On 3/3/23 we finished a page linked from https://www.planet4589.org  >  https://planet4589.org/space/index.html  >  https://planet4589.org/space/gcat/web/intro. We plan to continue on to the next page linked from there, which has link tag "SatType scheme." NOTE: the SatType description is for the column labeled "Type" in satcat, it was determined, after some confusion (thanks to Planet4589 for updating the text a bit in response).
  
• We earlier started: https://www.newthingsunderthesun.com/pub/4xnyepnn/release/9. We read up to "In their paper, firms use these technologies to produce a fixed amount of output every period." MC later requested putting our comments in the minutes for later review - good idea. Maybe we can time share across 2 readings next time, and thus get to some material from this source.
  
• We did not read from https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/9/2/572 (because no one with a focus on the topic attended). We have read up to "The authors in [31] also approached survival from a binary classification, i.e., transplant success or failure." and can start there next time there is a strong reason to continue with this article.
  

• Here are some generic questions about articles (and videos):
• What is the source?
• What is the most significant advance in the human knowledge presented in the paper?
• Why is that advance important?
• What important questions arise from the paper for future research?
• What important questions would it be nice if the paper answered, but does not answer?
• What does the paper present that is novel (no one else has provided that before)?

3/10/23: Guest Speaker

Agenda

Today we were pleased and honored to host Dr. Robert Kratschmann (SAP, Austria) and learn about his work on error detection in Planet4589 data. This was an opportunity to learn and discuss questions about the data, databases, the errors, our projects, and related matters.

Thanks also to NW for attending as a guest.

3/3/23: Readings from planet4589 documentation and maybe start another article

From Roswell Museum and Arts Center: Robert Goddard's early rocketry components. Not a word about UFOs in the museum - it's a serious museum.
