Why you can't color calibrate deep space photos

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-01-07 02:16:18

Why you can't color calibrate (deep) space photos: Jul 21, 2025 Color is the most disputed part of astrophotography. It seems like no two images have the same colors, and the internet is full of disputes over what colors are correct or natural. Human vision and perception are very complex. This description is hugely simplified as to fit in a blog post. If you want details, consult a textbook. Roughly speaking, our eyes have four types of photoreceptors. The most abundant, rods, provide a bla

Rove’s R2-4K dash cam is an extra set of eyes on the road and $48 off at Amazon

theverge.com Brandt Ranj 2026-01-08 03:46:58

Getting into a car accident, even a fender bender, is stressful on its own, but then comes the argument about who was at fault. A dash cam can give you reliable proof of what happened, and Rove’s R2-4K is currently on sale for $71.99 ($48 off), an all-time low price at Amazon, and $89.99 ($30 off) from Rove. I tested a previous-generation Rove dash cam, and was happy with the quality of its recordings and ease of use. The R2-4K is a significant improvement, capturing higher-quality video and imp

ArtMarie/Getty Images The job market feels tougher than ever right now, despite relatively low unemployment rates. So imagine being one of the 1.6 million Americans hunting for a job for at least six months, then, at long last, you get an unprompted message from a recruiter.

The ‘Hail Mary’ That Saved NASA’s Juno Camera From Jupiter’s Radiation Hell

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2026-01-09 12:26:35

NASA’s Juno spacecraft, which launched in 2011 to investigate Jupiter’s origin and evolution, travels through the solar system’s most intense planetary radiation fields. When the spacecraft’s JunoCam—a color, visible-light camera—began to suffer the consequences in December 2023, the mission team back on Earth had to think of a remote fix before they lost their chance to photograph the Jovian moon, Io. A relatively simple process was ultimately what enabled the long-distance save: heating the i

While I wasn’t expecting a major design shakeup, Google revealed the design of its new Pixel phone, almost a month before the official launch event. You can take a look for yourself on the front page of the Google Store. A short video teaser reveals one of the upcoming Pixel 10 smartphones. The device bears a similar appearance to the Pixel 9, with a back design that makes the camera unit protrude from the frame, similar to the Pixel 9 Pro.

How to Spot and Guard Against Wrong Number Scams

wired.com David Nield 2026-01-10 04:00:00

Something you can be sure of when it comes to scams and swindles is that the methods used to try to part you from your data, your money, or both are constantly changing—which of course makes it more difficult to spot scenarios where someone is attempting to trick you. One simple scam that's continuing to get more common starts off with text from someone who has apparently messaged the wrong number.

Nothing Phone 3 review: flagship-ish

Nothing says that the Phone 3 is its “first true flagship phone,” and it has put its money where its mouth is. The phone is getting a full US launch, and at $799, it costs exactly the same as a Pixel 9, Galaxy S25, or iPhone 16. That makes reviewing the Phone 3 refreshingly simple, because there are only two real questions that matter: is this as good as those three?
