Would a spaceship be able to be stealthy , if it were hidden behind an asteroid in a planetary ring and...












0















Let's say I have a spaceship I want to hide. If the ship had her lights, engine, reactor and non-essential power consuming modules turned off, is covered in a camouflage that reflects light like an asteroid would, and was hidden behind a large asteroid, would it be able to:




  • Keep the crew alive (half or more of the crew could be kept sleeping through medicines to avoid as much heat generation as possible)


  • Keep her passive sensors on


  • Stay hidden and/or appear identical to an asteroid when seen from a moderate distance



Also, I realize this would only make the ship invisible/harder to detect from the opposite side of the asteroid from where she is hidden. The purpose could be to "ambush" potential threats coming to a planet from one specific direction.

  • Probably a good question for Worldbuilding. @SCifi_enthusiast, what level of technology? If it's current tech, it could sorta work on Space

Tabula Rosettana

Tabula multilinguis Rosettana in Museo Britannico ostenditur. Tabula Rosettana, [1] etiam titulo OGIS 90 agnita, est stela decreto de rebus sacris in Aegypto anno 196 a.C.n. lato inscripta. Tabula iuxta Rosettam Aegypti, urbem in delta Nili et ad oram maris Mediterranei iacentem, anno 1799 a milite Francico reperta est. Inventio stelae, linguis duabus scripturisque tribus inscriptae, eruditis Instituti Aegypti statim nuntiata est; ibi enim iussu imperatoris Napoleonis eruditi omnium scientiarum (sub aegide Commissionis Scientiarum et Artium) properaverant cum expeditione Francica. Qua a Britannis mox debellata, tabula Rosettana Londinium missa hodie apud Museum Britannicum iacet. Textus Graecus cito lectus interpretationi textuum Aegyptiorum (in formis hieroglyphica et demotica expressorum) gradatim adiuvit.

How to label and detect the document text images

Image
1 $begingroup$ This is what I mean as document text image: I want to label the texts in image as separate blocks and my model should detect these labels as classes. NOTE: This is how the end result should be like: The labels like Block 1, Block 2, Block 3,.. should be Logo, Title, Date,.. Others, etc. Work done: First approach : I tried to implement this method via Object Detection, it didn't work. It didn't even detect any text. Second approach : Then I tried it using PixelLink. As this model is build for scene text detection, it detected each and every text in the image. But this method can detect multiple lines of text if the threshold values are increased. But I have no idea how do I add labels to the text blocks. PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones = 'PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones' PIXEL_C...
