The Arecibo Observatory is closing down this Monday, including its computers. I have been very busy downloading and setting everything to continue working on other computers. 😬

255 hours on the Whirlpool Galaxy collab with 15 other astrophotographers. The longest integration ever done on this target. We have a full in-depth write-up available here: galactic-hunter.com/post/m51… so be sure to check it out!

The #JWST team at STScI created a new documentation page to bring together all our current known issues with data products, workarounds, and what we’re doing to address them. Check it out: jwst-docs.stsci.edu/jwst-cal…

Legit question for rural Americans - How do I kill the 30-50 feral hogs that run into my yard within 3-5 mins while my small kids play?

My first JWST paper is out on the arxiv! Thanks @JustTheLetterU for using your fantastic summarizing skills on this thread.

Turns out it's Double #GOALSJWST week! @UCIPhysAstro postdoc @marinavbianchin found what appears to be consistent with inflowing gas as evidence of self-regulating feeding-feedback process in the heart of NGC 7469 using JWST NIRspec data! 1/4 arxiv.org/abs/2308.00209

the year is 2038. lk-99 has revolutionized computing, energy production, and battery manufacturing. the average website takes 10 seconds to load 500MB of javascript and a typical laptop draws a kilowatt of energy for a battery life of about 6 hours. there is still no new housing

Been missing #jwstgoals results? Our team's been working hard on the rest of our ERS & Cyc1 data; the 1st of our new batch of papers is on arxiv today! @thomaslai226 led the work on analyzing NIRSpec data of NGC7469, focusing on 3.3um PAH... arxiv.org/abs/2307.15169 #GOALSJWST

This point from @chrislintott is one of my absolute favorite parts of @NANOGrav's work — can you imagine calling up JPL and being like, 'Yo we don't think you know where all the planets actually are"...?!
chrislintott@chrislintott29 Jun 2023
Replying to @chrislintott @NANOGrav
This is a staggeringly difficult measurement - requiring, amongst much else, knowing the position of the centre of mass of the solar system to a precision of less than 100m. Previous results were confused because we didn't know where Jupiter was accurately enough (5/n)

The rather tepid reception of Jokic averaging a triple double in the playoffs and winning a championship shows how full of shit American sports fans are when they say they want a "humble, come to work everyday" kind of super star.

Also a reminder that the supernova that flashed "today" in M101 in fact went boom at the ~beginning of the Miocene period ~20 million years ago, before the North and South American continents were connected by land.

🚨🚨🚨 The legendary Koichi Itagaki, using his small observatory in Yamagata, has found yet another supernova, this time in M101. Details: wis-tns.org/object/2023ixf/d… Point those telescopes! RA (J2000): 14:03:38.580, Dec +54:18:42.10
