🔭 It's paper day! Today I'm sharing the latest in a series of papers looking at the weather on other worlds, in this case bringing you the weather report from a nearby T-dwarf, SIMP-0136. 🪐

A very hungry planet! 🪐
What appears to be a ripple in space is actually a newborn planet, eating its way through its dusty cradle around a younger version of our Sun 🌞

Congrats Cian!!! Super hyped to see what comes out of it
I'm absolutely delighted to share that my Hubble Space Telescope proposal has been accepted! We will search for the first UV detection of an aurora outside the solar system on the brown dwarf 2M1047, using simultaneous observations from HST and the VLA.
Stay tuned for some very exciting science! 🔭📡
