Sulla strada per scendere al lavoro ci sono degli #stencil su un breve tratto di strada che porta anche ad una biblioteca. Oggi ho deciso di fotografare quelli testuali (altri sono impronte di scarpe e frecce), perché li ho trovati interessanti. Scusate se le […]

Leggere è andare incontro a qualcosa che sta per essere e ancora nessuno sa cosa sarà Lasciateci leggere e lasciateci ballare: questi due divertimenti non faranno mai male al mondo. Nessun orgoglio per alcun* di noi, senza liberazione per tutt* noi

Tutti i voli portano a Roma
Foto del monitor delle partenze all'aeroporto di Barcelona. Alle 16:50 ci sono due voli distinti per Roma, di due compagnie diverse (Vueling ed ITA Airways). Quello della Vueling è anche un code sharing con altre compagnie (nella foto se ne vede solo un'altra).

Yesterday was the last day of #spheric2025. Huge thanks to the local organizing committee for their hard (mostly behind the scenes) work, and all the #spheric community for the enjoyable #conference and #unconference. A special thanks goes to Corrado Altomare […]

Corrado Altomare delivering his speech of hope during the closing address of the 19th SPHERIC World Conference (SPHERIC 2025). Behind him a projected side with a world map, with dots on the cities where the participants came from. There are dots from all continents except Antarctica. The text reads: (top) Science should build bridges, not borders. (bottom) Collaboration is our strongest form of resistance. 130 participants | 27 countries | 1 community Let's keep this spirit alive — beyond these walls.

#etna #eruption
Mt Etna eruption. A huge white plume has emerged from the summit craters, and extends several kilometers into the sky. About 1hr later, the plume is higher and has spread out. A new ash-gray plume is growing next to it

I'm starting to think there's a while class for them.

These models work surprisingly well. Despite the massive simplifications, they are still able to predict with astonishing accuracy the lava flow paths, emplacement extents and even the timing. Due to some miraculous balance, at the scale at which we do our […]

I've been to Rome (and back) to present our results to the stakeholders. They were very well received, and we got a lot of suggestions on other things to look into. Very nice meeting.

I had to take every single mass transit option to get there: plane, train […]

A fluffy sea of white clouds lit by the sun, taken from a plane window. The wing is visible. If you zoom in towards the middle of the photo you can see the top of Mt Etna emerging from the clouds. Smoke is coming out, flattened by the wind. Similar to the previous photo, but at a different angle.

A figure from the linked article, showing SPH simulations of the possible impacts on Uranus that have led to it having such a tilted axis. There are 16 snapshots, at higher resolution going left to right, and different times going top to bottom.
