Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Mission (Liz Citrin)
WIRE The Wide-field Infrared Explorer (WIRE) was a small satellite carrying a cryogenically cooled infrared telescope designed to study starburst galaxies—vast clouds of molecular gas cradling the sites of newborn stars. Developed under NASA's Small Explorer Program, WIRE was intended to have a four month primary mission. WIRE was launched on a three-stage Pegasus XL vehicle released from an L-1011 aircraft over the Pacific Ocean after takeoff from California's Vandenberg Air Force Base on March 4, 1999. The satellite was successfully placed in orbit around Earth at an altitude of 540 kilometers (about 335 miles). The mission failed soon after launch when the cover on the telescope/cryostat ejected prematurely. Uncontrolled heating of the cryostat caused the solid hydrogen cryogen to be expelled and resulted in the satellite spinning out of control. Flight controllers ultimately regained control of the satellite, but the primary science objectives were lost, as the infrared detectors could not be cooled.
Journey To The Big Bang From WMAP
Take a trip through space and time to put "earliest light" in perspective. Pulling back from the WMAP spacecraft in orbit at L2, we see that we are but a tiny speck in our Milky Way Galaxy. As the journey continues, we see that the Milky Way is but a tiny speck in the Universe as we pass quasars that were some of the early brightest structures that we can detect with conventional instruments. Finally we arrive at the beginning of time as we understand it. The super heated, roiling ionized hydrogen gas of a universe newly made glows throughout the universe. The energy from sonically condensed and rarified ripples in this gas, released as it cooled to 3000° kelvin, is the basis for the data collected by WMAP. credit: NASA / WMAP Science Team source: map.gsfc.nasa.gov
Big Bang for the Buck: Cosmology from WMAP
Charles L. Bennett is the Alumni Centennial Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. He does research in cosmology, the study of the large scale properties of the universe. He was among the leaders of the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) mission and he led the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe space mission. The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy (WMAP) Explorer space mission mapped the remnant radiation from the Big Bang across the entire sky. From the patterns observed, scientists have deduced the age, history, contents, and geometry of our universe. From dark matter to dark energy, to the first trillionth of a trillionth of a second of the universe, big things have come from this small mission. Dr. Bennett will answer: what has been discovered? What mysteries remain?

WMAP reionization
About 400000 years after the big bang, the intergalactic medium (IGM) composed of free protons and electrons. Photons could not move freely as the would collide with the active particles and scatter. The universe cooled down to approx. 3000k, the protons and electrons combined and the first hydrogen atoms were formed. This allowed light to travel in a straight path for the first time and over a period of 13 billion years, shifted to the microwave end of the spectrum. These first rays of light make up the Cosmic Microwave Background we pick up today. This image shows the process of the IGM collapsing into neutral atoms which then collapsed under gravity into denser regions, eventually forming the first stars and galaxies. This triggered the next phase called reionization. Approx. dimensions of box- 100 Mpc square (1 megaparsec = 3.2 million light years). The z figure indicates the red shift, 15=13.7 billion years, 6=13.4 billion years. More info regarding z and redshift- hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu

WMAP shape of the universe
According to data received from the WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anistropy Probe), the shape of the universe is 'flat' (as opposed to 'open' or 'closed') as the microwaves from the first light received are not distorted. If the universe is flat (and because luminous & dark matter only constitute 27% of the critical density) a dark energy is postulated to make up the remaining 73% of the critical density.

Evolution Of Universe From WMAP [720p]
The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) is a NASA Explorer mission that launched June 2001 to make fundamental measurements of cosmology -- the study of the properties of our universe as a whole. WMAP has been stunningly successful, producing our new Standard Model of Cosmology. WMAP continues to collect high quality scientific data. The structure of the universe evolved from the Big Bang, as represented by WMAP's "baby picture", through the clumping and ignition of matter (which caused reionization) up to the present. credit: NASA / WMAP Science Team source: map.gsfc.nasa.gov

WMAP's Portrait of the Early Universe [HD]
Scientists have been using NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anistropy Probe (WMAP) since 2001 to create the most detailed portrait of the infant Universe. By capturing the afterglow of the Big Bang, called the cosmic microwave background (CMB), we now believe the Universe to be 13.7 billion years old. Encoded in the patterns of the CMB is much-anticipated information about the fundamental properties of the early Universe. credit: NASA source: svs.gsfc.nasa.gov

Cobe WMAP und Planck Proben.wmv
Man hat mir vorgeworfen, dass ich die Wissenschaft "daemonisiere". Das ist nicht richtig. Ich weise auf eine klare und praesente Gefahr hin, die darin begruendet ist, dass die LHC Forscher nicht guarantieren koennen, dass ihr Experiment gefaehrlich ist. Weil sie es einfach nicht wissen. Das ist kein Daemonisieren. Im Gegenteil, gute Wissenschaft wie WMAP und die Planck Proben sind zu begruessen, weil sie vielleicht Antworten finden, ohne die Existenz des Planeten zu gefaehrden.

DEFCON 17: Metasploit Goes Web
Speaker: Efrain Torres Metasploit Team This topic will present and discuss the new Metasploit plugin for web exploitation and assessment. WMAP is part of the Metasploit framework and it is build with a different approach compared to other open source alternatives and commercial scanners. WMAP is not build around any browser or spider for data capture and manipulation and as test modules are implemented as auxiliary modules they can interact with any other MSF components including the database, exploits and plugins. Forget about this being another scanner, think of it as new building blocks for massive pwnage that crosses protocol boundaries. For more information visit: bit.ly To download the video visit: bit.ly

Planck scanning - Galactic, mollweide
The ring of sky which the Planck satellite scans at any one time is shown as a white ring. As it orbits the Sun, it maps out the sky, shown here as the sky as measured by the WMAP satellite (credit NASA/WMAP Science Team). The map is shown in Galactic coordinates, aligned with the plane of our Galaxy, and projected in a "Mollweide" projection, meaning that entire sky is shown in one oval, just like in some maps of the world in an Atlas. The solar system is tilted relative to the plane of the Galaxy, so the ring which Planck scans moves oddly around the sky in this view. For more information see planck.cf.ac.uk

Planck scanning - Galactic, cartesian
The ring of sky which the Planck satellite scans at any one time is shown as a white ring. As it orbits the Sun, it maps out the sky, shown here as the sky as measured by the WMAP satellite (credit NASA/WMAP Science Team). The map is shown in Galactic coordinates, aligned with the plane of our Galaxy, and projected in a cartesian projection, meaning that the top and bottom of the map are stretched - this is why the ring, which is actually a circle, appears a bit square. The solar system is tilted relative to the plane of the Galaxy, so the ring which Planck scans moves oddly around the sky in this view. For more information see planck.cf.ac.uk

Дыхание космоса
Данные, полученные космическим аппаратом НАСА, озадачили астрономов и с новой остротой поставили вопрос о возможной ограниченности Вселенной. Имеются свидетел Данные, полученные космическим аппаратом НАСА, озадачили астрономов и с ьства того, что она, кроме того, неожиданно мала (по астрономическим, естественно, масштабам), и только вследствие своеобразного "оптического обмана зрения" нам кажется, что нет ей конца и края. Сумятицу в научном сообществе вызвали данные, полученные американским зондом WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe), работающим с 2001 года. Его аппаратура измеряла флуктуации температуры реликтового микроволнового излучения. По данным моделирования, результаты наблюдений WMAP свидетельствуют о том, что Вселенная представляет собой набор бесконечно повторяющихся додекаэдров - правильных многогранников, поверхность которых образована 12 правильными пятиугольниками. Именно такую форму имеют знакомые всем футбольные мячи. При этом, по мнению астрономов, сходство между "додекаэдровой" моделью Вселенной и данными WMAP просто "потрясающее", и они "соответствовали друг другу гораздо лучше, чем можно было вообразить Данные, полученные космическим аппаратом НАСА, озадачили астрономов и с новой остротой поставили вопрос о возможной ограниченности Вселенной.
