The curiosity of youth that can last a lifetime !!
|fovarosiblogsaid:What is hazcam?
Ah, sorry, that’s short for “hazard camera”. These are wide angle cameras the rover uses while driving, to help avoid driving into boulders, falling off cliffs, getting stuck in sand, etc. Perseverance has three stereo pairs of these: Main and backup pairs on the front end of the rover, and a single pair on the back end. As another example of this, you can look at all the latest hazcam images from the Curiosity rover here.
They use these cameras right after landing because most of the others are located on the rover’s camera mast – the thing that kind of looks like the rover’s head and neck – or its arm, and it’ll be a couple of days before they start using either of those.
Introducing the new super cute Curiosity rover necklace, made from acrylic and cherry hardwood. Hoping the real one will be fixed soon - we believe in you!
So is it just me or does anyone else get really curious about small things then end up going on Google, doing a full blown search about it then feeling very satisfied once you have answers????
Day 9
The word is “manipulation”.
I looked up how many types of manipulators are there because why not. Apparently there are quite a few.
Next thing i looked up is the process of most manipulation situations: choosing the target, becoming friendly, getting to the trustworthy/love stage if that’s the case, abusive.
Day 10
The theme: psychology.
I like to read about psychology but i feel like this is one topic people can’t comprehend fully regardless if they’re specialists or not.
I’m quite curious what people will discover in the future regarding this theme because psychology is quite a new science in comparison to others.
Day 11
Crows
My goal is to befriend a few.
Day 12
Unknown
One thing that makes me giggle is when i hear “specialists don’t agree with this” (yes anon, I’m referring to you right now).
So many people call themselves specialists because they studied the past experiences but shouldn’t a specialist know everything about something? Otherwise they’re just an advanced learner.
There are new discoveries daily and looking back, there were many plot twists over time, in history, that rearranged entire industries and sciences so i think the unknown is in everything, even if it’s something that people are so sure of in the present.
Perhaps that’s why there are terms loke experts, specialists, masters etc because we seek comfort. The unknown is pretty scary usually.
Day 13
Embroidery
Such an easy hobby that can make things unique. I think it’s quite a lovely skill.
Day 14
Emotions
I learned the definition of “unconscious” today and the girl who said it in the video said that you’re unconscious when you start acting as your emotions and thoughts and you don’t realize it and I’m here, since lunch, asking myself “isn’t that what a human is though? A big bag of emotions and thoughts?”
I don’t know, this theme is really not something I can talk about much.
Day 15
Goals
Now this is a topic i know a few things about.
By a few things, i mean nothing.
I spent the last 2 weeks, in a thought hibernation state regarding goals. (Not my goals, the concept of goals)
I asked a couple of friends and coworkers some existential crisis questions and the more i tried to figure out how people choose goals and plans for them and so on, the more lost i became.
In theory, goals are easy. You want a thing. You make a plan for the thing. You work for the thing. You get the thing.
However, practically, ain’t that easy apparently. We don’t talk about half burnout sessions either. People actually can’t start working for a goal, even before choosing the goal. Some things that caught my attention for these past 2 weeks:
- Fear and doubts stop a lot of people from even trying.
- Your environment that you live in, sets your energy level.
- People choose a vibe, an aesthetic they want but don’t think further. No plan, no direction, no idea how to achieve that vibe.
- Not having the guarantee that it will work. This could be paired with fear and doubts but that’s something that caught my attention: that even if they look the same in my eyes, they are perceived differently by some people.
So really, all i can say is, find your own way and see your own holes on your approach because very few people could make a customizable plan for your goals.
Most articles will look the same. Goals aren’t a one size all thing though.
Day 16
Spirituality
Some time ago I heard this quote “spirituality and religion aren’t the same thing” and it haunts me ever since.
Pretty great quote.
Here are the previous topics.
@sayitaliano posts daily about these themes too and unlike me, they really post daily and don’t speedrun through an entire week of themes.
