You can catch me live on TalkTV in ~15 minutes providing some live comment on the landing attempt by Chandrayaan-3.

Wow! 16 pro-amateur astrophotographers imaged the Whirlpool Galaxy, then combined their data to produce an image with 255 hours integration time. This is the result. 🧪🔭

Recently group member Ilaria Ruffa had an exciting new paper hit the arXiv. We find the existence of a 3D plane connecting the masses of supermassive black holes to their nuclear millimetre and X-ray luminosities, in our sample of AGN! Check it out here https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.13872

Exciting news today, as my institution has finally allowed me to learn to read, after years of only (seniorly) lecturing. Looking forward to tackling my to-read pile now!

Great summary figure from Crain & van de Voort (2023) review of hydrodynamic simulations showing length scales from stellar interiors to the size of the Universe, along with regimes where baryonic physics can be treated explicitly versus approximately in simulations. 🧪🔭https://tinyurl.com/y3shhxft

How do you do a thread here? Or do you just have to post each, and reply to yourself?
