I like glaciers, polar regions, dinosaurs, F1 and space exploration! PhD student (early Holocene paleoecology on Svalbard). Happy to work in @veda24.bsky.social and @cpecz.bsky.social

If youโ€™re less than 25 years old, you never experienced a situation in which all the people was present on the Earth at any time!

Since today 25 tears ago the Expedition 1 in the International Space Station began! What a feat for the whole humankind ๐Ÿฅฐ.

Itโ€™ll be available in most (Czech) bookstores in just a few days.
If youโ€™re into the Arctic, Antarctic, or just science stories told through real people, this oneโ€™s for you. ๐ŸŒ

Zdenฤ›k also asked me to contribute as one of the interviewees โ€” and to share some photos.

The bookโ€™s large format really makes the visuals stand out. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

The book is dedicated to Josef Svoboda (1929โ€“2022), a legendary Arctic ecologist who emigrated to Canada after years in a communist prison.

The Czech research station on Svalbard now carries his name. โ„๏ธ

He says all the scientists agree on one thing โ€” humans are responsible for todayโ€™s global changes.

But their outlooks differ: older researchers tend to be more pessimistic, younger ones more hopeful.

New book out soon! ๐Ÿ“– (Unfortunately only in Czech)

Planet of Melting Ice by Zdenฤ›k Zvonek brings together 19 interviews with scientists from all sorts of fields โ€” from biology to geology to social science โ€” all united by one thing: their work in the polar regions. ๐ŸงŠ

NASA image acquired: June 03, 2012

This scene is to the northwest of the recently named crater Magritte, in Mercury's south. The image is not map projected; the larger crater actually sits to the north of the two smaller ones. The shadowing helps define the striking "Mickey Mouse" resemblance, created by the accumulation of craters over Mercury's long geologic history.

This image was acquired as part of MDIS's high-incidence-angle base map. The high-incidence-angle base map is a major mapping activity in MESSENGER's extended mission and complements the surface morphology base map of MESSENGER's primary mission that was acquired under generally more moderate incidence angles. High incidence angles, achieved when the Sun is near the horizon, result in long shadows that accentuate the small-scale topography of geologic features. The high-incidence-angle base map is being acquired with an average resolution of 200 meters/pixel.

The MESSENGER spacecraft is the first ever to orbit the planet Mercury, and the spacecraft's seven scientific instruments and radio science investigation are unraveling the history and evolution of the Solar System's innermost planet. Visit the Why Mercury? section of this website to learn more about the key science questions that the MESSENGER mission is addressing. During the one-year primary mission, MESSENGER acquired 88,746 images and extensive other data sets. MESSENGER is now in a yearlong extended mission, during which plans call fo...

NASA's disastrous 2026 budget proposal in seven charts The White House has put forward a radical, wasteful proposal for NASA. We have the data to prove it.

Cool pictures of Luca Parmitano during the training in Orion mockup with his NASA collegaues.

They were practicing recovery procedures for the Artemis II astronauts for next year.

It is nice to see the @esa.int patch on Orion space suit! I guess Luca is first in the line for ESA Artemis seat. ๐Ÿš€
