For the morning crowd, here are all the observations stored in the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes. A visual created by Julie Imig, one of our amazing astronomical data scientists. Follow the link below for more colors and even a movie.

And now it's the other white dwarf planet candidate's turn!

JWST is observing this stellar remnant in order to see if the nearby red smudge is a planet. We know the white dwarf has high proper motion and will move a several pixels, will the red smudge also move those few pixels? We will find out when they bring the data down.

Baltimore County is in the process of redistricting to gain 2 new districts.
Interestingly enough, One of the proposed districts looks suspiciously like a Salamander, as shown by my daughter's handiwork.

Happy 35th Birthday Hubble!
What a great time to remember how a small investment in science can inspire a generation.

Oooo!!....New streamlined query in astroquery to query MAST observations and locate data products on the cloud.

MAST/ TESS workshop day 2 at the AAS is about to get started. Today is more about how to use TIKE to access data in the cloud.

Baltimore folks. If you like choral music, come to the TU Choral Society's concert on Friday night: From Darkness to Light. We are doing Illuminare by Elaine Hagenberg and a few other pieces.
Potluck reception after the concert.
It is free, but donations are appreciated.

I have middle schoolers with me today at #chexo11. So I shall discuss their insights. After Chris Stark's talk where he discussed the probability of success of HWO to find each like planets, my son asked why not just build 3 telescopes?

For those at #AAS243, check out the poster on Monday by Matt Dallas showing the exovetter software for running vetting metrics against possible transiting signals. It has most of the Kepler/K2 robovetter metrics, written in python, pip installable. exovetter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/in...

I've lived all over this country and at least driven through much of it. I feel bad that I've shown my kids so little of it. Then again, I asked where we should go over the winter holidays and my son said "stay home and enjoy Christmas".
