#Telescope🔭
Did you know Galileo was *technically* the OG science influencer? 🤯

This Thursday, let's toast to the guy who saw the stars and said, "Hold my telescope." 🔭

Happy Birthday, Galileo! 🎉

P.S. He was secretly awesome at moonwalking... on the actual moon. 🌕

Every day we get to work on the amazing Hubble, James Webb and upcoming Nancy Grace Roman space telescopes. We have to admit, they're out of this world! 😁 🔭

Happy Valentine's Day to our favorite NASA missions. 🫶

#PPOD: This picture shows the full scope of Paranal’s beauty. Cerro Paranal in Chile’s Atacama Desert, the mountain peak home to ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), is a site of many marvels. And this panoramic image taken by Chilean astrophotographer Alexis Trigo certainly captures them all. 🧪 🔭

Next #SETILive: Today, 2:30 pm PST

A new possible pulsar has been identified near the center of the Milky Way — one of the most extreme environments in our galaxy.

For decades, astronomers expected to find many pulsars orbiting Sagittarius A*. But they’ve been frustratingly hard to detect. 🧪 🔭 👩‍🔬

For example, my sister put herself through university (computer science, fine art double major) working for the astronomy dept..
She spent years building a two star polarimeter instrument for a telescope in South America.
She made its computers from scratch and when installed it ran for a decade! 🔭

happy international day of women and girls in science 🌌✨🔭

i wanted to be an astronomer since i was a child and fast forward to now, i’m a few years away from having a phd in physics and astronomy.

to all the little brown girls out there, you CAN do it 🚀
