Glad to see many international folks joining Bluesky!

My name is Aline, I am an astronomer from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 🇧🇷 and I am currently based in Lund, Sweden for a postdoc at Lund University 🇸🇪

I mainly study exoplanet atmospheres, especially gas giants (but tending to smaller planets) 🪐✨

Faz tempo que queria voltar a postar aqui, mas desde que parei de usar o falecido twitter desacostumei com esse tipo de rede. Como vão as coisas por aqui? 🪐

This is a (processed) image of a candidate gas giant that's just been discovered around Alpha Centauri A.

It's about the mass of Saturn and orbits the star at 2 AU.

By analogy with the Solar System, this giant planet may well have moons and a ring system. And it's (figuratively) just next door.

No AI, this is a real photo taken by Percy’s engineering cameras of astronomical twilight on #Mars! You can see Deimos in the sky too.

I worked pretty hard to plan, execute, and analyze this image, and it came out beautifully! A bit noisy, but it was very dark out after all.

A @alinenovais.com publicou um vídeo lá na outra rede™ falando algumas verdades sobre o turismo espacial.

Vou deixar o link do Instagrão, quem quiser, sigam a Aline lá!

Ontem lancei um vídeo nas redes vizinhas sobre TURISMO ESPACIAL e por que quem gosta de astronomia NÃO deveria estar apoiando isso ⚠️

Vale lembrar que a Erica é ESPECIALISTA em divulgação científica e sabe muito bem o que tá falando (ou seja, não é uma opinião de uma pessoa qualquer)

Se você é comunicador de ciência, não deixe de ler ⬇️
Vocês viram que pipocou por aí ofertas de cursos para "Influencers da Ciência"?

Inclusive um deles é do Ibict voltado a formar jovens de 15 a 25 anos para criar conteúdo digital e combater a desinformação.

Parece uma ideia potente, mas o que significa formar influencers da ciência? (+)

👇 Extremely cool work by the awesome @alinenovais.com on #exoplanet atmospheres with HST, highlighting some key challenges in today’s research: retrievals are hard, clouds are hard… everything is hard, which is why it’s important to revisit older data!

🧪🔭☄️
I am thrilled to announce my second PhD paper, under the supervision of Luan Ghezzi, Kevin Heng, and Chloe Fisher 🪐📄

This study is a summary of my PhD thesis (2019–2024), where we analysed retrievals of HST WFC3 transmission spectra and parameter degeneracies associated with them.
