AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the challenge of visualizing the analemma, which is influenced by factors like obliquity, eccentricity, and the angle between the apse line and the line of solstices. Users express difficulty in finding 3D simulations of the analemma online. Recommendations include creating a personal simulation using math programs, as well as two specific 2D analysis programs. The conversation highlights the need for better resources and tools for understanding the analemma visually. Overall, there is a call for more accessible 3D graphics related to this astronomical phenomenon.

Recently I read about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analemma" on the internet but I cannot visualise their formation depending upon the causative factors such as obliquity, eccentricity, and the angle between the apse line and the line of solstices. I wanted to know if someone knows about 3D visualisations and graphics anywhere on the net.

It is very difficult to find on the internet a 3d simulation program of analemma but you can try to make one of your own using Math programs.
If that helps i recommend two programmes of 2d analyses of the analema.

Thread 'Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?'

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...

Thread 'Could fast radio bursts be alien radar signals?'

Both have short pulses of emission and a wide spectral bandwidth, covering a wide variety of frequencies: "Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are detected over a wide range of radio frequencies, including frequencies around 1400 MHz, but have also been detected at lower frequencies, particularly in the 400–800 MHz range. Russian astronomers recently detected a powerful burst at 111 MHz, expanding our understanding of the FRB range. Frequency Ranges: 1400 MHz: Many of the known FRBs have been detected...
