Very cool!! Excited to give it a read :)

I spent the other weekend surrounded by women in #Physics at this year's #APS #CUWIP and got to present a poster on my research! Jocelyn Bell Burnell gave a talk about her contribution to the discovery of #pulsars at a time when physics and astronomy was almost exclusively male.
#astronomy

A clump of young new stars, appearing blue, surrounded by different veils of gas, appearing white, beige, and orange.

I re-did the Tarantula Nebula seen by the JWST! 🔭

It was first released by NASA/ESA/CSA/STScI in Sept 2022, so I think it is nice to remind everybody of the beauty of that data!

That is, maybe, the prettiest observation that I processed 🥰

day6: closed out an exhaustingly amazing week of #AAS243
-visited exhibit hall & picked up reserved books
-got lunch with a friend
- sat in exoplanet session
flew out early this morning & am now back home--feeling bittersweet and eternally grateful☺️ thanks for following along! #aasnola #astronomy

day 5: i love public speaking and i love astrophysics, so when i get to mix those two together i feel so grateful for the opportunity☺️
i spent the morning tweaking my powerpoint, went to the last plenary of the day, and then went home early because i was EXHAUSTED. one day left! #AAS243 #aasnola

im giving my talk today on modeling asteroids, constraining their thermophysical properties, and SPT data's importance in all of this☄️ it'll be in room 214 at 3:20 as part of the Solar System session, come check it out! #AAS243 #AASNOLA #Astronomy #Asteroids #Astrophysics #ExploreAstronomy

took day 4 of #AAS243 a little easy to re-coop:
-brunch from cafe beignet
-won a raffle for a 3D puzzle of ELTP!
-met Pip the Bear🐻‍❄️
-attended a lovely slew of presentations
-attended the #BlackInAstro dinner🖤
-explored Bourbon Street (live music!)
-worked on my talk!

day 3: into the wild
too many presentations, too few hours in a day😭 i wish i were omnipresent! i saw many interesting talks and posters throughout the day, visited many booths in the exhibition hall, and afterwards went to a jazz bar concert! what an experience! #NOLA #AAS243 #astronomy #aasnola

gotta stay safe! i have lupus so for me, its always better safe than sorry :)

is there any sort of notification that will tell us if we are added?

lol i clearly need a higher character allotment! but just wanted to add PLS SAY HI IF U SEE ME! i love making new friends:) send info about ur presentation so i can come! not that i forgot, but today reminded me how unbelievable this community is☺️ dreams come true!! #aasnola #physics #aas

#aas243 day2
- astro data sci workshop pt2
- REU fair
- exhibit hall/reception

so busy i barely took photos! made cool plots. met SO many rad ppl. networked & got my name out(i🖤research). had convos in french🇫🇷. saw old friends. cant believe im here! so sleepy. gn. #astronomy #nola #astrophysics

no worries, and thanks!! good luck to you as well!

hahaha thanks so much!! i appreciate the kind words☺️
