NEW THIS MORNING: LukaNette's Couple was Nearly Kissing at a Movie Theater, while a Secret Revelation of Ladybug is Allegedly Messed Up [#OneNETnewsEXCLUSIVE]

youtube

SEINE, FRANCE -- It all comes down to this, fresh from a televised press trailer... A newest information was both first reported between by Mid-March until before the observance of a Holy Week in the Philippines this year in 2021, from Globo Noticias on Gloob in Brazil & Le Journal de 13 on TF1 for TFOU in France.

Our South American Correspondent, much currently for the Nickelodeon News Bureau & Correspondent in Michigan region (Ronnie Anne Santiago) is on a Spot Report outside the News Headquarters of Canais Globo in Rio de Janerio.

You might remember in our recent developing story of BREAKING NEWS, that is only on our Facebook-exclusive post. Our theory from this said couple, in regarding to propose a wedding ring in advance and the illegal sexual activity before marriage... It turns out for a couple of things as according to our Research Team of OneNETnews.

At a honeymoon movie theater during a front-seated indoor cinema of "Crocodile Heart"... Instead of a wedding ring, Marinette was giving out a Plectrum for the guitar and the other useful instruments to Luka. It was quite too early to getting married in between with Luka and Marinette, under the Family Code of the Philippines: Article 2.1 & The Civil Act #3613: Section 27 or The Marriage Law of 1929, "No marriage shall be declared invalid because of the absence of one or several of the formal requirements of this Act if, when it was performed, the spouses or one of them believed in good faith that the person who solemnized the marriage was actually empowered to do so and that the marriage was perfectly legal".

Upon a cinematic couple between Luka & Marinette, a mysterious monster was appeared for a love interruption from this said dating of making out on him. We clearly don't know if it's possibly determined for a targeted attack against the Ladybug.

Meanwhile in Paris at a Boulangerie Patisserie bakery upstairs on her final home floor for Marinette... A newest guardian turnover was issued from Wang Fu of the Miracle Box for a later transformation suits of Ladybug. But suddenly, she accidentally pressed a centered Ladybug button to release all the Kwamis.

In a private text message as our TF1 News reporter (Marinette Dupain-Cheng) told exclusively to OneNETnews... Her friends like Alya and others, including Luka and/or Adrien... will be separated for good, due to her secret of Ladybug (in a Season 4 PREMIERE) has been committedly exposed to the public by accident, under a violation of Republic Act #10173 or Data Privacy Act of 2012: Section 25.

Optionally under a personal recommendation from a local psychiatrist in Paris... This may be added later for a Republic Act #11036: Section 4-k or The Mental Health Act of 2017. She will be sentenced for 1-3 years & 6 months in jail if pleaded guilty at a Court of Cassation in Sainte-Chapelle town for a Suspension or Prisión Correccional order, as possibly referenced from a Revised Penal Code.

A YouTuber Netizen named Kenana Machlah has pointed out for LukaNette's kissing and the opinion, "Marinette is not alright she’s stressed that she can’t hang out with friends or her boyfriend Luka, since she has to guard the Miracle Box and she’s stressed because she has to lie to them forever to keep her identity a secret. Luka felt like Marinette has a secret but he thought that he wasn’t trustworthy enough in her mind so he got akumatized into telling the truth. While he’s akumatized, he wants to know Marinette’s secret and Ladybug and Chat Noir’s identity. Luka was just trying to be there for her and comforting her but not rejected for sure since they will go on a date like we’ve seen in a spoiler and that date is in a different episode".

Machlah adds from this said comment, "Her friends wanted to hangout with marinette since she hasn’t been hanging out with them lately so they surprised her by a visit to her house. They knew that she was hiding something and very stressed so Rose took of the doll house roof since Marinette was being so protective of it they wanted to see what’s in there. Marinette's problem got mad at them and kicked them out of her room/house. They called Luka to see what’s wrong and he probably said that Marinette is very stressed lately and everything. So they all get akumatized because they think she has no more time for them anymore. It’s not confirmed that she did reveal her identity it could be she’s was telling her self. But if she revealed her identity it would be to either Luka or Alya. She wanted to tell someone so she or he can cover for her and at least he doesn't blame her for why she is so stressed and everything. She wanted someone to talk to about her double life".

The accidental revelation of Ladybug and a love couple as unfortunate, Gabriel Agreste (Adrien's father) will face an immediate interrogation talk using a brain telepathy, just a few hours before her criminal arrest of Ladybug at a French court in the afternoon onwards.

A LITTLE SHORT NOTE as FINAL: No LukaNette shippers were harmed in making of this news report, for now.

Everything You Will Ever Need To Know About Unicode (And Many Things You Will Not Need To Know As Well)

(This post is specifically being written so I have a single URL which covers all the points involved, and therefore does not necessarily cover all technical/historical points thoroughly even though it is extremely long. For your convenience in skipping it, the whole thing is below the fold.)

A Little History

Once upon a time, computers with keyboards instead of punch cards and switches were new and magical things. Since computers deal with complex data by converting it into numbers, a system was needed to map text to numbers. This kind of system — where numbers in some range, usually beginning with 0 and ending with some binary-significant value — are mapped to printing characters is called a character mapping.

After a certain number of false starts, American computer companies and their English-speaking foreign counterparts settled on ASCII (the American Standard Code for Information Interchange). Most people, even now, know a little bit about ASCII — the main points are:

Uses values from 0 to 127 (that is, values which can be represented in seven-eighths of one byte)

Values from 0 to 31 and the lone value 127 are non-printing characters (including a “backspace” character) intended to transmit control instructions

Contains the digits from 0 to 9, the latin alphabet without accents in both upper- and lower-case, and 32 symbols; the digits are in sequence, as are the alphabet.

Does not contain “curly quotes”, accented characters like “é”, or currency symbols other than the dollar sign “$”

Does not specify which non-printing character signifies a line break/paragraph ending

The line break issue is of some importance, so it’s worth explaining: ASCII as originally formulated treats text more or less as a stream of characters passing through the print head (the “carriage”) of an electric typewriter or old-fashioned line printer. As such, it has two characters which deal with moving the carriage to a new paragraph: “line feed” (LF), which moves the head down one line, and “carriage return” (CR), which moves the head to the extreme left edge of the line. ASCII says that LF is 10 (hexadecimal 0x0A), and CR is 13 (hexadecimal 0x0D). On an electric typewriter or line printer, where there is a physical moving part, a new paragraph is a carriage return and a line feed, in either order, but a computer generally doesn’t need two characters. With typical contrariness, the major families of operating systems adopted three standards:

POSIX-y systems (Unix, and eventually Linux) decided that LF meant a new paragraph, and CR meant nothing.

DOS (and eventually Windows) decided to follow the electric typewriter model, and used a carriage return followed by a line feed, CRLF. Either character by itself meant nothing, and LFCR meant nothing.

“Classic” Mac OS decided that CR meant a new paragraph, and LF meant nothing. (Mac OS X — which is actually a reworking of an older OS originally known as NextStep — is actually a Unix variant; any GUI program using the built-in text APIs will auto-translate all three options when reading a text file, and write LF.)

Obviously, although ASCII is good enough for programming in most computer languages, which tend to be English-y and designed for a certain amount of backwards-compatibility, ASCII was not good enough for other forms of text, which demand better punctuation and support for languages other than English.

There was a longish period during which a number of other character mappings were used in different contexts. Many of them were “extended ASCII” character sets, which used one byte per character, and filled the extra 128 values left by ASCII with extended punctuation and accented characters as support for other languages. By and large, these were encoded into a family of standards by the International Standards Organization (ISO), known collectively as ISO 8859. The most common of these is ISO 8859-1, “ISO Latin-1”, but there are others as well. (Most versions of Windows use a modified version of ISO Latin-1 known as Windows-1252, and the “Classic” Mac OS had an equivalent mostly-overlapping character mapping for European languages, Mac Roman.)

(As a purely historical note: IBM had its own family of character mappings entirely distinct from ASCII, known collectively as EBCDIC: Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code. For many reasons, EBCDIC did not catch on — among other things, the latin alphabet was never encoded as a single set of consecutive values — and it is included here primarily so that you can win trivia contests.)

Other languages, however, could not base their character mappings on ASCII. Real support for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean requires at least some large subset of the multi-thousand-character system called “漢字” (Pronounced “Hanzi” in Chinese, “Kanji” in Japanese, and “Hanja” in Korean), among other non-ASCII things. For this reason, there were also many pre-Unicode character mappings which used more than one byte per character, and even a few which used a variable number of bytes per character. All of these systems tended to include all the characters of ASCII, but were obviously not directly mappable to any ASCII-based single-byte character mapping.

This was the situation in the late 1980s, when Xerox and Apple began working on what would eventually become Unicode. The first published version of Unicode — which was a fixed-size two-byte encoding intended purely for modern languages in active use — was published in 1991, and an expanded version (essentially the current system from a technical standpoint) was published in 1996.

What Unicode Is, And What It Isn’t

Unicode is a character mapping (and a few other things as well which we won’t go into). It attempts to fulfill (sometimes with more success than others) certain specific goals:

Every character set used in “real” human communication should be representable. (There is a certain amount of fussiness over what “real” means — Klingon is not included, for instance, because it was deliberately invented to be “alien”, but Shavian phonetic script is included.)

For every character set included in Unicode, the order of the characters should ideally follow some popular pre-existing character mapping, if there is one, or at least have some technical justification even if it is only “this is the order of the alphabet in this language”.

Every included character has a numeric value — its “code point” — and a unique name in English, usually represented in all capitals. A code point is properly given as “U+” followed by the value in hexadecimal, padded to at least 4 digits. (That is, “U+0043”, not “U+43”.)

Characters which modify other characters, such as accent marks, should be included. If a modified character is common enough, it should appear as its own character. (For example, a capital “A” with a grave accent, “À” can be represented by U+0041, “LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A”, followed by U+0300, “COMBINING GRAVE ACCENT” — but it can also be represented as U+00C0, “LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH GRAVE”.) Algorithms are provided to “compose” these combinations into single characters where appropriate, and to compare strings properly with consideration for composition.

The Unicode standard, which is at version 12 as of this writing, is maintained by the Unicode Consortium, which is an international organization not under the control of any company, but including representatives from some companies as well as academics specializing in language. Note that Unicode is not a piece of software, nor is it a font. It is a character mapping, which must be implemented by software companies and font designers who want to display text. Although the application to include new characters in Unicode (or to modify existing ones) is not particularly complex, the process involves deliberation and tends to move very slowly.

It is important to remember that a Unicode code point is distinct from the bytes which will be recorded in a file. Unicode by itself does not specify how a code point should be recorded in bytes, merely which number values correspond to which characters (and how they interact). Unicode code points range between 0 and 0x10FFFF, which means that it would be theoretically possible to encode Unicode directly to disk as a fixed-size 3-byte encoding. In practice, this does not happen; more about this topic below. Certain specific code points are deliberately unused, most notably the 2048-code-point range from U+D800 to U+DFFF and the specific value U+FFFE.

The code points are usually (with a few exceptions) arranged into groups of related characters by language or purpose. These sections are known as “code tables”, and always contain a multiple of 16 characters, some of which may be unused, so that any two code points whose hexadecimal value differ only in the last digit are always in the same code table. (For instance, Mongolian is U+1800 through U+18AF.)

Some general notes on the basic structure of Unicode:

The values from 0 to 255 are identical to those in ISO 8859-1, so that ASCII and the most common “European” encoding have a direct conversion of values.

Most (though not all) character sets which would have a single-byte encoding by themselves, but are not based on the latin alphabet, appear fairly early in the list. (Greek, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Cherokee, and so on.)

The majority (though again not all) of characters used commonly in modern languages appear in the Basic Multilingual Plane, or BMP, which is the range of values from U+0000 to U+FFFF. (In fact, Unicode 1.0 was the BMP.) There are other “planes” as well, and certain ranges of values are designated as “Private Use Areas”, so that programmers can use characters which are explicitly not part of ordinary text without having to switch between Unicode and other systems. (Apple, for example, stores their logo in the system fonts which come with Mac OS X as U+F8FF, so that it can be used in the menu bar and in text.)

In many cases, the Unicode Consortium later added additional characters for a specific language or character set, and so there are many small code tables containing “supplementary” or “extended” characters to previously-defined code tables. (The latin alphabet has 8 code tables so far, starting with “Basic Latin” for ASCII and “Latin-1 Supplement” for the rest of ISO Latin-1, but extending into extraordinarily rare characters up through “Latin Extended-E”, with a brief side trip to “Latin Extended Additional”.) Although the latin alphabet and the CJK character sets have more code tables than usual, there are “supplementary” and “extended” code tables for many others as well.

The 漢字 characters for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean appear only once, mostly in the massive code table “CJK Unified Ideographs”, which stretches from U+4E00 to U+9FFF. (The characters often have different appearances in the different languages, which means that there is a useful distinction between, say, the Korean version of a character and the Chinese version, which Unicode by itself does not preserve, making the single inclusion a contentious decision.) The characters generally appear in order of complexity, with the most common/simplest ones appearing at lower code points — but, as anybody who has perused a reference work involving 漢字 will tell you, “simpler” is not only a relative term but one on which different authorities disagree.

In addition to characters used in spoken languages, Unicode also contains a very wide range of shapes and symbols. Usually, these characters are added in response to their inclusion in some communications system outside of the Unicode Consortium’s control. (For example, emoji were originally taken from Japanese cell phone texting systems, which is why so many of the early emoji in Unicode are Japanese cultural items, like U+1F359 “🍡”, dango. That’s also why all the “face” emoji started off without alternate forms for skin color.) These non-language characters tend to appear in two places in the Unicode table: just before the 漢字 characters, and towards the end of the currently-defined characters.

Recording Unicode On Disk: Byte Sequences and UTF

In theory, you could record all Unicode characters using a 3-byte encoding; more commonly, people think of Unicode as having 4-byte values. While this is not technically incorrect, it is worth remembering that Unicode itself never uses values above 0x10FFFF. (On the other hand, there is a “larger” standard known as the Universal Character Set, UCS, which is currently defined as being identical to Unicode for all defined values, but explicitly says that characters can potentially have any four-byte value, and most software is written with an eye on UCS.)

A method of converting Unicode code points into values on disk is a Unicode Transformation Format (or, if you like, a UCS Transformation Format), abbreviated UTF. The obvious, simple, and almost unused method is to record text as a stream of 4-byte values. This is known as UTF-32, or UCS-4, and is extremely rare in practice.

There are 2 common encodings (one of which comes in two variants) which reduce the amount of wasted space (bytes of value 0) recorded to disk:

UTF-8

UTF-8 is by far the most common encoding found on the web, and also in text files used by programmers. The premise is simple: characters which appear in strict ASCII take up one byte with the high-order bit set to 0 (that is, with a value from 0 to 127), other characters use 2, 3, or 4 bytes with the high-order bit set to 1 (a value from 128 to 255). A valid strict ASCII text file is automatically a valid UTF-8 text file.

The Wikipedia article explains the algorithm in detail, but in short: multi-byte characters in UTF-8 are formatted so that the first byte indicates how many bytes will be used, and the remaining bytes cannot be mistaken for the first byte of a multi-byte character. That means UTF-8 is useful across unreliable transmission methods — if a single byte is lost, the character corresponding to that byte will be lost, but the rest of the text is not jumbled.

In addition, any system which was written with the assumption that all text was ASCII (which includes most command-line tools) will probably handle UTF-8 text without any problems, provided that they do not strip high-order bits or split up any adjacent multi-byte characters. (That is, they will be able to do things like search through the text or wrap it to a maximum line width for display without making it unreadable.) This makes it particularly convenient for programmers and system administrators, who frequently use tools which were written long ago and “think” in terms of pure ASCII text (or, at least, ASCII-based single-byte character mappings).

It is possibly important to remember that, contrary to popular belief, not every sequence of byte values is valid UTF-8 text. There are byte sequences which encode values which have no character mapping, byte sequences which encode values too large for the Unicode range, and byte sequences which encode ASCII characters — which would be readable but still invalid.

The algorithm for UTF-8 can actually handle the entire UCS character set, using up to 6 bytes per character for values outside the official Unicode mapping, and when the UTF-8 encoding was introduced, those additional values were part of the algorithm. By the official standard eventually set by the IETF RFC in 2003, UTF-8 is restricted to valid Unicode values, and therefore no more than 4 bytes per character.

UTF-16 (and UTF-16BE and UTF-16LE)

Much though “tl;dr” synopses are horrible, this section can be summarized as: “unless you are defining your own file type (so that only your program will ever need to read it) and will be storing a lot of text which does not use the latin character set, do not use UTF-16 because it is a mess and invites trouble”.

UTF-16 was — in Unicode 1.0 — the equivalent of UTF-32 in later versions, because all Unicode values used 2 bytes, meaning that recording two bytes per character was the simple, obvious thing to do. It was somewhat wasteful of space for most European languages, since it “wastes” a byte for any character in the ISO Latin-1 character mapping, but even in 1991 when Unicode 1.0 came out this was not an unreasonable strain on existing storage technology. The problems which eventually made UTF-16 unpopular were more subtle and varied.

First was the fact that there are two varieties of UTF-16. Some computers are “big-endian” (that is, the first byte in a multi-byte value is the byte which stores the larger portion of the value, the “big end”) and some are “little-endian”. (The terms are references to Gulliver’s Travels, and are traditional for describing this problem.) So by default, some computers “want” to write U+1234 as 0x1234, with the “big end” first (UTF-16BE) while others “want” to write it as 0x3412 with the “little end” first (UTF-16LE), and since U+3412 is just as valid a code point as U+1234, there is no automatic way to be sure whether a UTF-16 file from an unknown source was UTF-16BE or UTF-16LE.

In order to solve this problem, Unicode defined U+FEFF as a “Byte Order Mark” (BOM) which could be placed at the beginning of a UTF-16 text stream to show which one was in use. (Its character is defined as a “zero-width non-breaking space” — in other words, a character which is technically a space for the purposes of word-count or spell-checking, but takes up no space on the screen, and at which programs are not supposed to break up text for line-wrapping or layout purposes. Since this has no visible or analytical effect on the text at all, a correctly-interpreted BOM in a Unicode-supporting program does not alter the text and can even be safely included in UTF-8 text files where it is unnecessary.) Which solved the problem… except that the overwhelming majority of programs which used UTF-16 did not record a BOM in their files, regarding it as an unnecessary waste of space. As a result, most pure text editors which support UTF-16 have an option to force a file to open as either BE or LE.

When Unicode 2.0 increased the range of valid code points all the way to U+10FFFF, two bytes were no longer sufficient to cover all possible characters. UTF-16 was amended to use approximately the same trick as UTF-8 to extend its range. As it happened, no characters had yet been assigned to the range U+D800 to U+DFFF, and so this range was declared to be permanently unused; characters with code points above U+FFFF are recorded in UTF-16 as a pair of 2-byte values in this range. (More specifically, the first value will be in the range 0xD800 to 0xDBFF, and the second value will be in the range 0xDC00 to 0xDFFF; this gives 1024×1024 combinations, coincidentally the number of values from 0x010000 to 0x10FFFF.) As a result, “modern” UTF-16 is a variable-length encoding — most of the time, it uses two bytes per character, but sometimes uses four.

If a single byte is missed or deleted in transmission (or any odd number of bytes), the rest of the text is garbled, and unless an invalid combination like an unmatched U+D800 occurs, there is no way to detect this algorithmically. If multiple bytes are lost at random, the text will switch back and forth to and from gibberish.

Finally, and fatally in many cases, UTF-16 often chokes old programs which “think” in ASCII, which are often used by programmers. Unfortunately, a very large number of two-byte combinations which are valid UTF-16 are also valid ASCII, so programs which expect to be able to alter ASCII text for convenience can mangle UTF-16 text irreparably.

In particular, line break characters can be a problem with UTF-16 text. Tools such as Git often default to some sort of “auto-translation” mode when retrieving code files, but are not smart enough to catch on to multi-byte character encoding. A file which is converted to the Windows paragraph ending, CRLF, from (usually) the POSIX paragraph ending, LF, will cause the insertion of an extra byte, garbling all the characters in even-numbered paragraphs. Although it is possible to shut off a given tool’s auto-translation mode, it is much easier simply to avoid UTF-16 encoding in favor of UTF-8 from the start.

UTF-7

UTF-7 is primarily used in e-mail. You are unlikely to use it and it is listed here purely to head off questions. It records unaccented latin letters, numbers, and a few symbols directly as their ASCII equivalents, “+” as the sequence “+-”, and all other characters with a “+” followed by the base64-encoded UTF-16BE value of the character. This means that the entire text will consist of ASCII characters, thus conforming to MIME requirements. Since this is extremely wasteful of space without any particular benefit in terms of readability or formatting, it is generally unused as a file format.

As an experiment, upon the idea of garment transfer, and within the design spirit of Chitose Abe, an admired fashion designer who created the Sacai label, I made a short film showing two models whose outfits would change bit by bit, parts of their garments would deconstruct, perhaps move to the other person, parts of other items, conceivably from random people walking past, attaching themselves onto their original outfits, sometimes worn or draped in new ways, and slowly a new silhouette would form, all the time the clothes would essentially communicate with other clothes, just as whole items are layered, and as each piece embodies certain meanings, new clashes of energies fuse together, making new fashion identities in which the wearer can engage, and all the while engaging with each other through fashion, in a non-verbal gestural way, that can be spontaneous, confronting, humourous, and even liberating.

At the heart of what it means to be human (in the best way) in a digital world, is making connections and making meaning, being compassionate, sensitive, reflective and supportive. Fast fashion makes a mockery of superficial meanings and “looks” which circulate at rates which are unsustainable for the planet while building up many-storied piles of garments, once objects of desire selling a perfect world, temporary identities now ignored and dismissed, embodiments of the cycle of attachment and detachment of rampant consumerism. How much real connection and value did they generate in the wearers’ lives is a matter of debate. From a set of unwanted clothes, which were on their way to landfill, this experiment showed that there is a lot of connection that can be made through fashion, by playing with the idea of archetype transferral.

Bringing the analog process of dressing the models to making a video, which was a rough iPhone video of scrolling on the screen, was an attempt to move from the analog back to the digital, but to do so in a way that was what we think being human is compared to the digital, rudimentary, unsophisticated, imperfect, but full of emotional richness perhaps. The myth of this dichotomy was revealed to me through my experience working with the models on the day. There was a rich sequence of verbal interchange, where I could feel the models’ experience of wearing clothes, of being dressed, of losing control over their outfits, and opening their eyes to new ways of wearing garments. Anything but rudimentary, the analog human communication process that has evolved over thousands of years includes subtle cues that can be seen through eye contact, body proximity, gestures, and sounds, even smells. The clothes had scents from past wearers, a source of humour and repulsion as the session began as each garment evoked anonymous strangers, evoking more speculation and associative imagery.

The body, as the site around which fashion centres, like fashion, with its ability to attract and repel, imbuing clothing with scent, artificial and natural, which has also interacted with public areas, then over a certain period of time, bacteria multiplying, decaying, merging and interacting on a minuscule scale, speaking through the clothes.

The design process became more collaborative, another myth of the designer as fully directive and all-knowing and in control, between the models, myself as designer and photographer interacting with my own thought processes, inspired by other designers, the garments and accessories themselves seemingly suggesting possibilities with their mere presence, and to a lesser extent the presence of music in the background or lack thereof.

In Jane Bennett’s vision of Vibrant Matter, it really was a vibrant session.

Kate Fletcher’s 2016 book Craft of Use: Post Growth Fashion talks about slow fashion methods of creating narratives and stories from long term wear, hand-me-down clothing, beloved worn pieces that grow a soul through repeated wear and tear (and care). In a sense, any intellectual activity and exploration of clothes that do not require repeated consumption in order to reach a more meaningful level of being and existing is a kind of craft of use.

For who are we as humans but an amalgam of each other, our personalities and identities fluid and variable, ambiguous and indeterminate, suggestible to new fashion identities. In a future where the digital might help us transfer parts of our fashion identities to each other, we might be more empowered to connect on a more meaningful level.

New XRISM satellite mission to study 'rainbow' of X-rays

A new satellite called XRISM (X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission, pronounced "crism") aims to pry apart high-energy light into the equivalent of an X-ray rainbow. The mission, led by JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency), will do this using an instrument called Resolve.

XRISM is scheduled to launch from Japan's Tanegashima Space Center on Aug. 25, 2023 (Aug. 26 in Japan).

"Resolve will give us a new look into some of the universe's most energetic objects, including black holes, clusters of galaxies, and the aftermath of stellar explosions," said Richard Kelley, NASA's XRISM principal investigator at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. "We'll learn more about how they behave and what they're made of using the data the mission collects after launch."

Resolve is an X-ray microcalorimeter spectrometer instrument collaboration between NASA and JAXA. It measures tiny temperature changes created when an X-ray hits its 6-by-6-pixel detector. To measure that minuscule increase and determine the X-ray's energy, the detector needs to cool down to around minus 460 Fahrenheit (minus 270 Celsius), just a fraction of a degree above absolute zero.

The instrument reaches its operating temperature after a multistage mechanical cooling process inside a refrigerator-sized container of liquid helium.

By collecting thousands or even millions of X-rays from a cosmic source, Resolve can measure high-resolution spectra of the object. Spectra are measurements of light's intensity over a range of energies. Prisms spread visible light into its different energies, which we know better as the colors of the rainbow. Scientists used prisms in early spectrometers to look for spectral lines, which occur when atoms or molecules absorb or emit energy.

Now astronomers use spectrometers, tuned to all kinds of light, to learn about cosmic objects' physical states, motions, and compositions. Resolve will do spectroscopy for X-rays with energies ranging from 400 to 12,000 electron volts by measuring the energies of individual X-rays to form a spectrum. (For comparison, visible light energies range from about 2 to 3 electron volts.)

"The spectra XRISM collects will be the most detailed we've ever seen for some of the phenomena we'll observe," said Brian Williams, NASA's XRISM project scientist at Goddard. "The mission will provide us with insights into some of the most difficult places to study, like the

internal structures of neutron stars and near-light-speed particle jets powered by black holes in active galaxies."

The mission's other instrument, developed by JAXA, is called Xtend. It will give XRISM one of the largest fields of view of any X-ray imaging satellite flown to date, observing an area about 60% larger than the average apparent size of the full Moon.

Resolve and Xtend rely on two identical X-ray Mirror Assemblies developed at Goddard.

XRISM is a collaborative mission between JAXA and NASA, with participation by ESA (European Space Agency). NASA's contribution includes science participation from the Canadian Space Agency.
