To accompany all those BlueSky science/academia #starterpacks, let’s share introductions to the literature of our fields.
Here’s the #RadioAstronomy one (credit NRAO, and also inspired by @xkcd.com).
The one about Kevin is particularly on point.

Incoming comet post!
Finally had some clear skies this evening and I got to play with my Seestar properly. Not done any post processing/playing around with these yet, just straight off the scope.
I'm super super happy! 🔭

Feel like posting some space this morning. I LOVE imaging galaxy clusters. For some reason I completely forget *which* galaxy cluster this is (need more coffee) but I hope you like it. :) About six hours of integration time, imaged w/my RC and processed in PixInsight 🔭📷🛰

Very excited about the new international X-ray mission being launched this weekend, XRISM! 🧪🔭 I just heard the launch has been pushed back from Saturday 26 Aug to Sunday, hopefully after I land in Namibia so I can watch it! Nervewracking but pls don't ask what happened to the last ones...jinxy...🤞🤞
Big ol' X-ray astronomy mission will be launching this weekend! Called XRISM, it's a Japan/US/European observatory that will observe high-energy events like stars blowing up, galaxies energizing gas aroudn them, and black holes gobbling down matter.
