Have you been wondering when you’ll get the finale of BARBIE? Lament no further! BARBIE3: Introducing the KEN is on arXiv now - check it out! We introduce a new grid set, the KEN, and investigate CH4 and H2O detectability. Any questions? Reach out to me!

Bayesian Analysis for Remote Biosignature Identification on exoEarths (BARBIE) \RNum{3}: Introducing the KEN
We deploy a newly-generated set of geometric albedo spectral grids to examine the detectability of methane (CH4) in the reflected-light spectrum of an Earth-like exoplanet at visible and near-infrared...

Spending a week in Lindau for #lino24 is just like Science Bachelor.

Laureates are the bachelors and young scientists the contestants. "Can I steal you for a second?"

Gotta know @nertushka and I are getting all the roses with our loud mouths. 😉😉🌹🌹
