NASA's 'Van Gogh' Data Visualization of the Sun - The Atlantic


NASA’s Van Gogh Sun

Late last year, NASA released Perpetual Ocean, a remarkable three minute, Van Gogh-like video showing ocean currents swirling around the globe between June 2005 and December 2007. Now, the NASA team returns with Van Gogh Sun, a clip demonstrating a new technique created by Nicholeen Viall, a solar scientist at the Goddard Space Flight Center, who specializes in creating images that demystify “the mechanisms that drive the temperature and movements of the sun’s atmosphere, or corona.” The video above gives you the quick overview; this NASA web page (where you can also download the video) takes you deeper into Viall’s world.

If you ask me, Perpetual Ocean certainly calls to mind Van Gogh’s Starry Night. When it comes to these corona images, it’s Van Gogh’s Sunflowers at close range.

If You Ever Need Someone - The Family BonesGalerie de pop-songs, dont la mélancolie initiale sert de paravent à un incurable optimisme, le premier album éponyme du groupe rassemblant, autour de Justin Webb aka The Family Bones, quelques grandes pointures de la scène indé de Californie, est le disque idéal de l’été naissant, qui va faire disparaître vos soucis comme buée au soleil – n’est qu’à voir le clip aux 25 000 Post-It de Si vous avez toujours besoin de quelqu'un, rafraîchissante beauté visuelle autant que mélodie entêtante.
