we have a BOUND copy of our community science book and lots of stickers! Come say hi at the #AAS247 AXIS booth!
I met @chrislintott.bsky.social at an AAS meeting and he told me that real astronomers don't watch Sky at Night π
Please post about any resources you find to this end- I'm working with some students and postdocs who may want to make some open education based on their research.

This is a really amazing opportunity for astronomy students! πβοΈ
It's always also very oversubscribed, so make sure to apply to a few things if you want to do a summer research internship
This is going to make things really "fun"...
Don't tread on me! Unless the boots are goose-stepping
One quote stood out to me, after reading plenty of LLM-filtered items: "That is not just my storyβit is our story." The specific use of the emdash without spaces around it and the "not A -- but B" is immediately suspicious. Of course, LLMs were trained on PR speak so who knows if this is genuine.
Hearing undergrads complain that the show they went to was fill of Green Day fans and "ugh they're all *old men*", good times.
Very excited to share the NASA/ESA/STScI press release of our team's work on Apep! It's a terrific writeup, complete with a brand new beautiful visualisation of the nebula geometry.
