Asked the new #DeepSeek model about the Tiananmen Square massacre and got a surprising answer...

...after some very manipulative prompting 😂

A smooth galaxy, observed with the Apache Point 2.5m Telescope in the SDSS survey.

It is at redshift 0.039 (lookback time 549.7 million years) with coordinates (163.51324, 55.83029).

39 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo 2.

Extremely proud and excited to have been part of the team behind today's @eso.org news item about WASP-127 b and its crazy winds (read here: www.eso.org/public/news/...) ... but even more BLOWN AWAY (!) by the incredible animation that I didn't know was going to be attached to it!!! 🤯🪐🔭🧪

Happy Perihelion Day!

If you want to celebrate the exact moment, it will be at 1:28PM GMT.

That’s the moment we are closest to the Sun, and, since angular momentum is conserved, the moment we are whizzing fastest around the Sun.

Sadly, it won’t make things noticeably warmer on this chilly day! 🔭

Excited to be out in the field, even if it's just because of the hottest fashion trends in PPE.

What generates the gravitational waves that make up the background? It is probably supermassive black-hole binaries and/or early Universe physics. We don't know yet but it is likely a combination of both! 💥

It's paper release day tomorrow! Excited to share with you all!
