That is awesome! Thanks!
I teach Astro 101 and AGN's are a favorite topic for many students. Images of jets extending out for distances exceeding the galactic radius are eye catching and inspiring. These vast structures originate from a region spanning less than a pixel in the image.

The US government has become a mouthpiece for Putin but Americans stand with the brave Ukrainian soldiers defending their families and homes.
Individual Americans are donating millions of dollars to provide non-lethal aid to Ukrainian soldiers - tons and tons of drones and vehicles.
Slava Ukraini!

Sorry for not replying. I decided NOT to contribute to your group because the administration of my college disciplined me last term for speaking freely about our college.
They disciplined another faculty member for an online post.

How about the last century of public education? Our K-12 system has long perpetuated inequality by providing inferior education - far worse than other nations. Even today,
most students suffer in ignorance while affluent students can afford supplementary education (e.g. tutors & math camps, etc)

Hi, I am a Solar Astronomer and professor. I want to be anonymous since folks in Higher Ed can react oddly to social media posts. Alas, these days there is no telling what will offend whom - even Astronomy is not safe.

I can confirm my position in private however.

If that's not OK, I'll lurk
