Future Humanities, Volume 3, Issue 2, November 2025.ABSTRACT Climate fiction's dominant futurist imaginaries trend towards resolved futures, particularly in apocalyptic and techno‐utopian representations of our climate futures. These closure‐driven narratives treat the future as a fated, distant event, limiting climate fiction's interrogation of human agency, responsibility, and potential action in the ...

Ultraviolet Passbands for a Space Multicolor Photometric System
Open Astronomy, 2003 The results of search for the optimal location of ultraviolet passbands for an extra-atmospheric photometric system are given. The addition of passbands near the well-known extinction bump at 218 nm to the photometric system makes it possible to ...

Radio Science, Volume 60, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract A space‐borne radio‐frequency antenna is typically located in the vicinity of a conductive spacecraft body that influences its beam. Also, at wavelengths that greatly exceed the sizes of such an antenna and spacecraft, the antenna is expected to have the beam of an equivalent short dipole.

On the Origin of the North Celestial Pole Loop
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The North Celestial Pole Loop (NCPL) provides a unique laboratory for studying the early-stage precursors of star formation. Uncovering its origin is key to understanding the dynamical mechanisms that control the evolution of its contents. In this study,

Lactea: Web‐Based Spectrum‐Preserving Multi‐Resolution Visualization of the GAIA Star Catalog
Computer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2025.Abstract The explosion of data in astronomy has resulted in an era of unprecedented opportunities for discovery. The GAIA mission's catalog, containing a large number of light sources (mostly stars) with several parameters such as sky position and proper motion, is playing a significant role in advancing astronomy research and has been crucial in ...
