A new ransomware strain named 'Altair' has been discovered targeting Windows. It uses a double-extortion model, exfiltrates data, and leverages WMI for stealth. Victims are given a 72-hour deadline. #Ransomware #Altair #CyberSecurity #Malware

Altair is a nearby A-type star. It is also one of the hottest nearby stars with X-ray emission, probably arising from corona around its equatorial regions, where convective envelope which sustain them persist on this highly oblate star.

#art #astronomy #space #spaceart #star #Altair

This artwork depicts a fictional view of Altair's corona seen with SDO AIA camera's 171 Å channel, accompanied by some information.

At the centre is the star; the photosphere is entirely dark, and the corona can be seen as a faint band ringing the star's equator and intermediate latitudes, while the visible pole is dark. The corona is depicted as slightly heterogenous, with dark patches and bright spots scattered across it.

At top left is basic information about Altair (α Aql): mass of 1.86 ± 0.03 Solar masses, radii of 2.008 ± 0.006 Solar radii (equator) / 1.565 ± 0.014 Solar radii (pole), effective temperature of 6780 K (equator) / 8621 K (pole), and rotation period of 7.79 hours.

Top right contains my summary of Altair's coronal properties obtained from Robrade & Schmitt (2009). The coronal surface flux is comparable to solar background corona, the plasma temperature is similar to low activity stars like the Sun and is dominated by quiescent/weakly active regions and open magnetic fields with weak contributions from moderately active regions, and that the coronal structures are small (few %) relative to the star. Altair's X-ray flux varies, arising from both rotational modulation, as well as intrinsic variabilities, eg. emergence and decay of active regions. Flares are not detected, as expected.

Same as previous image, although Altair's limb and equator are outlined as solid line and dashed line, respectively.

Back on my Altair Eurorack sequencer project. Had to order a few more optocouplers. Whenever I work on my own projects, I write down the relevant steps and info in a Google Doc, like how to connect to the Altair with TeraTerm, and how to start MBASIC in CP/M.

Altair, 16.7 light-years out, turns once every nine hours and spins itself into an oval. Greek sky lore put the eagle of Zeus here, the one that carried Ganymede to Olympus. The light in this frame left in 2009. Nikon D5 at 420mm, eight frames of 64 s. #Altair #Astrophotography

Un consorzio guidato dalla società Marlan Space degli Emirati Arabi Uniti e dalla startup statunitense-francese Loft Orbital prevede di investire 1 miliardo di dollari per espandere da 10 a 50 #satelliti la costellazione #Altair.

2) CONTEMPLEMOS SU FINAL DESDE ESPARREGUERA, #BARCELONA, captado por Jordi Gil @jgil65.bsky.social . Fijémenos como el meteoroide, un frágil agregado cometario, se desintegra y genera una nube de fragmentos antes de llegar a #Altair, de la constelación del #Águila 🦅.
¡Qué maravilla! 🤩🌠
