The Local Fluff
About 10% of the Milky Way's visible matter is patchy interstellar medium (ISM), mostly hydrogen gas. The IBEX satellite maps the local ISM, revealing our Sun moving through a cloud that may be exited in 10,000 years. The flow direction of interstellar particles is changing, with much about the ISM still unknown.

[2024-12-15, 19:16] Dieses ist ein Ein-Mensch-Projekt. Ich versuche gerne zu helfen, wo ich kann, kann aber leider nicht jede Nachricht beantworten. Macht es einfach alles exakt nach Anleitung, die ihr auf fedikarte.de seht 😎
Aufgrund des erhöhten Aufkommens kann es vereinzelt zu Störungen im Bot kommen. Falls etwas nicht geklappt hat: einfach später nochmal probieren oder @wolfmond (Admin) fragen 😊👍
Viel Freude beim euch-eintragen wünscht
