3-D Print Your Planet (and Space-Related Objects)
Writing this as it’s still fresh in mind (looking at a lot of drafts sitting in my notebook) as well as for the next print if any. I can and will update this, but for now, it’s publishable in my standard.
I have just obtained an opportunity to do an outreach. It’s a very interesting event, and as I previously have obtained a 3-D print of Gale Crater, I was very interested to create a print of my area of research (still Mars, but more to the south)
The print in question. As blurry as it can get Anyone can guess what this is?
How to: GDAL with Martian Data
I’ve seen a lot of tutorial on working with GDAL with Earth data, but not a lot for planetary data, Mars included. As I use GDAL a lot (and in need of reminder myself), why not write a how-to with Martian data.

Mempersiapkan Penjelajahan Ke Luar Angkasa, Dari Bumi
Untuk melakukan penjelajahan di bumi, faktor-faktor seperti arah, posisi, dan cuaca merupakan faktor yang penting saat mempersiapkan perjalanan. Dengan menggunakan sistem navigasi dan peta, serta ramalan cuaca yang akurat hingga 2 derajat per harinya[1], kita dapat mempersiapkan rute perjalanan kita untuk mendatangi lokasi yang kita inginkan di permukaan bumi, dalam kondisi perjalanan yang terbaik. Di bumi saja, kita terbiasa untuk mempersiapkan perjalanan kita, untuk melakukan penjelajahan ke luar angkasa, di tata surya kita, bahkan di alam semesta, dunia yang misterius dan jauh berbeda kondisinya dengan bumi kita, tentu jauh lebih banyak data dan persiapan yang dibutuhkan.

How to: Scientific Presentation
I… prefer doing oral presentation more than doing poster one. Other than it seems like a bigger prestige, printing and hauling posters especially in international flight is such a pain.

Tube x Zones x Map
If someone mentions London, other than all the royalties, Sherlock Holmes, and Big Ben, The Tube will be one of the word coming to your mind immediately. Of course, if you say “underground train”, other than Tokyo and New York, London Tube is definitely a brand by itself.
