What would you use a controllable synthetic Moon for???

My friend and I were discussing last night. If you could "uber", i.e. on-demand take control of, a highly-reflective satellite that approximated the moon, what would you use it for?

The best use I could think of was flip it on and off to spell things with morse code. But I'm sure there's a better, more wild answer than that

No defense applications or bad actor answers, fun only

Help to understand heatmap waterfall image

Hi everyone,

I use raspberry-noaa-v2 in order to receive NOAA and METEOR images.

Images I receive are full of noise whereas it approximately worked before.

So, I decided to use a script to produce a heat waterfall image between 137 and 138 MHz for 5 hours. There is the result of produced image but I dont' understand what does it mean. Is someone can help me to understand the results ? :)

I precise that from my location, today, there are 2 passes :

  • NOAA 19 at 12h14
  • NOAA 18 at 13h34

Also, I use a DIY V-Dipole antenna with an SWR of 1,5 and an impedance at 43Ω without LNA.

Thanks in advance : )

Do you know about AREx? It's our our initiative focused on Lunar communications in the Artemis era. We're hopeful for integration with the Lunar Gateway to continue student science in space via #HamRadio. Teams are working on equipment concepts and frequency coordination.
