Star - Blog Posts
Binary star systems have come up a lot in the past 18 podcasts, and here is a perfect example of them!
As promised, here is a comic about the brightest star in the northern Hemisphere: Sirius! Sirius B will be shown in future comics as 2018 is year of the dog and since Sirius is the dog star, it is year of the Sirius!
Enjoy!

My first success story about how I entered the void
This is a storytime of how I entered the void as a child and manifest from there without even knowing.
Chasing the star
When I was about 6 or 7 I was standing and looking outside my window at night, it was about 11 or 12 am.
That night, I saw something special—or so I thought. A star split into two. As a child, I believed it was something rare and magical, something only I had witnessed. But I couldn’t tell my parents; they’d know I hadn’t been asleep.
Instead, I asked my kindergarten teacher. She was kind and gentle, and she told me a story that kept my innocence intact.
Those who see a splitting star are special, it a opportunity for a good luck, when you see a splitting star that divines into two it because one side is meant for you. As a gift. What you must do is go sleep and chase it. When you catch it hold it tight so it doesn't escape and when you wake up you'll have it in your hands.
That your good luck.
And as I child I believe this, and I did chase the star through my dreams. But from excitement I couldn't always sleep so I would pretend because I wanted to trick the star, I would close my eyes and stare into the dark and imagine chasing this star. I imagine myself flying and catching and it would feel peaceful.
As I child I didn't realise I was in a void state, a state of pure consciousness. And I would come back when I was sure I had my luck and I would fall asleep.
I was disappointed when I would wake up and not see the star in my hands but I still had so much luck so as I child I was sure I did caught it and got my luck but the star escaped back to it other half. I kept seeing stars split, so I believed my luck was always nearby.
Years later when I was about 13 or 14 I was in my literature class and we were reading a old story of a boy chasing a star after seeing it split. His grandfather had told him it was a sign of good fortune. That’s when I realized my teacher hadn’t made up the story—it was a tale passed down, reimagined for me.
However the act of chasing the star is what has put me into void state as I child because I believed I could leave my body through my dreams or before bed and go into the sky and catch a star.
So this is a confirmation that it not important what you do or what your intention is even, you can always enter the void in any way you can think of.
Don't limit yourself

Giovanni Rotunda Palatino az alkimista
A múzeumok éjszakáján voltunk a budai Arany Sas patikamúzeumban, ha tehetitek látogassatok el oda, mert annak ellenére, hogy milyen kicsi, nagyon jó dolgok vannak ott. Az egyik teremben be van rendezve egy egész szobányi alkimista labor, ami annyira tetszett, hogy meg akartam rajzolni de arra gondoltam, hogy először szükség lenne bele egy alkimistára is. Így született meg Giovanni Rotunda Palatino, az itáliai vendégtudós a magyar királyi udvarban. Persze lehet, hogy nem ő a legjobb alkimista, de nagyon szereti amit csinál.
Giovanni Rotunda Palatino the alchemist
There is a Pharmacy museum called Arany Sas (The Golden Eagle) in the castle district of Budapest, what I visited last week. There is a fully furnished alchemist laboratory inside, what I liked a lot so I wanted to draw it. But then I tought it needs an alchemist first who practice alchemy there. He is Giovanni Rotunda Palatino the Italian alchemist, now a guest scientist in the court of the king of Hungary. Maybe he isn’t the best, but he likes what he do.
Dorka és Matild felfedezőkutyák
Egy barátom kérésére készítettem el ezt a papírkivágást, amin két kutyája, Dorka és Matild ismeretlen és új világokat fedeznek fel a világűr egy távoli pontján.
Dorka and Matild explorer dogs
A friend asked me to make a papercut about her dogs, Dorka and Matild. They are exploring new and unknown worlds in a far part of the universe with their spaceship.
Megnyílt a Planetáriumban a Végtelenbe és Hovább kiállítás ahol 40 grafikussal és művésszel együtt mutatjuk meg, hogy mit gondolunk az űrről. Köszönöm a szervezőknek, hogy ilyen szépet szerveztek! A kiállítás megtekinthető a népligeti Planetáriumban, Budapesten, 2014. január 31-ig. Belépő 200Ft.
Összefoglaló Űrkereskedelmi útvonalak A térkép a Solaris Mercatorius kereskedelmi szövetség ötszáz éves fennállásának ünnepségére készült. A szövetséget 1356-ban alapították a GR-18 csillagrendszer bolygóinak nagy befolyású kereskedőcsaládjai, a bolygóközi kereskedelem fellendítése és a kompánia hajóinak védelme érdekében. Tevékenységükkel hatékonyan kiszorították a csillagrendszer peremére az űrivadakat és a prédónok (martalócok avagy kalózok) naszádjait, ezzel teremtve meg a biztonságos bolygóközi kereskedelem alapjait. A szövetség minden csillagfordulón átadja a csillagtudományok legkitűnőbb tanulóinak és a szövetség legbátrabb kapitányainak az Türkiz Kómaevő díjat, a legtisztább szívűeknek pedig a Fehér Farkascsillag díjat.

To the Infinity and Beyond exhibition was opened on saturday evening in the Planetary of Budapest. 40 artists were invited to this project to show what they think about the space. The exhibition can be seen until 31th January.
Description Space Trade Routes The map was made for the celebration of the 500th year anniversary of the Solaris Mercatorius merchant confederation. The confederation was established in 1356 by the rich and influential mercantile-families of the GR-18 solar system’s planets, in the interest of boosting trade between planets and in order to defend the league's ships. With their activities, they squeezed out the spacegiants and the pirate sloops to the edges of the solar system, and they grounded the safe interplanet transportation. Every year at the day of Starturn, the confederation gives the Turquoise Comaeater to the most prominent students of the star sciences and for the bravest captains of the confederation, the most clean hearted gets the White Faxed Star award

“If there be light, then there is darkness”
I want to share with you these two pictures from Starbucks. No coffee or food, just photo. Also it’s not only good cafeteria, it’s good place for studying in quite milieu as well. That’s nice.
Scientists just spotted an adorable star that barely even qualifies as one
Sometimes, scientists’ categories for things can be a little demeaning. For example: the “failed star” designation for objects that are larger than planets but smaller than stars.
About 600 light-years away, EBLM J0555-57Ab just barely missed the failed star category. But as will be published in an upcoming issue of the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, it’s just a hair over the boundary, making it one of the smallest stars we know of.
“Failed star” is actually a factual statement — it just means something isn’t large enough to manage to bang hydrogen atoms together to form helium, the basic process at the heart of a burning star.
EBLM J0555-57Ab looks a bit like it shouldn’t have made the cut: It’s only a tiny bit larger than Saturn, or about one-twelfth the size of our sun. Read more (7/12/17)

Coldest Star Found—No Hotter Than Fresh Coffee
According to a new study, a star discovered 75 light-years away is no warmer than a freshly brewed cup of coffee.
Dubbed CFBDSIR 1458 10b, the star is what’s called a brown dwarf. These oddball objects are often called failed stars, because they have starlike heat and chemical properties but don’t have enough mass for the crush of gravity to ignite nuclear fusion at their cores.
With surface temperatures hovering around 206 degrees F (97 degrees C), the newfound star is the coldest brown dwarf seen to date.
