Framed copy of 2002 Gruber Cosmology Prize awarded to Vera Rubin, which reads, “Her pioneering studies of the deviations of galaxy motions from classical a Hubble theory demonstrated that large scale structure existed in the universe. Her discovery that most of the universe is unseen dark matter derived from her exploration of the rotation of spiral galaxies. By example and gentle voice she has championed equal rights and revealed the incredible beauty of the universe.”

I am an astronomer. You are correct! Another view...

Text captured from linked paper, that says we should be able to detect SiO in the atmosphere of ultra-short period planet TOI-561b with our Cycle 2 JWST program to observe a phase curve of this planet with NIRSpec/G395H.

From CarnegiePlanets on Twitter. This was such a heart-warming ceremony, and now we have more ways to remember and celebrate Vera and her positive impact on astronomy, science, and her local neighborhood. 🥰
There's a new call box in town! Last week we gathered with friends and neighbors to celebrate Vera Rubin, the "Mother of Dark Matter", with a beautiful community art installation. Thank you to everyone who made this possible. @PoPville @foresthillsnews Close-up image of blue call box showing the "Mother of Dark Matter" community art installation, a mosaic with orbs and swirling arcs and a portrait of Vera Rubin.
