Check out my interview with the amazing @fcain.universetoday.com on youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpaE... !!! This was fun and nerve-wracking, but I am so excited to share my love for science with you all <3 <3

The PRobe Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA) team is excited to announce the release of a special issue in the Journal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems (JATIS), Volume 11 Issue 03! This issue was edited by Naseem Rangwala and Matt Griffin.

Last week, NASA and NSF released their FY26 budget requests. We list the detailed impacts on the astronomical sciences in this blog post, and share how you can take action today. aas.org/posts/news/2... @policy.aas.org

The Presidents Budget Request for NASA is out. It’s a bloodbath Canceled are DAVINCI, VERITAS, Juno, OSIRIS-APEX, US participation in ExoMars and EnVision… Huge cut to R&A. No funding to begin development of the Uranus Orbiter. If you’ve ever cared about NASA, time to contact congress.

Whew guys, I had a big, fancy, grown-up interview with THE @fcain.universetoday.com today! 🤯😮🤩 You'll be able to check out the interview (mostly me gushing about our fabulous Galactic Center maybe?) on his youtube channel (www.youtube.com/@frasercain) soon. A few take-aways:

For my first bluesky post (🥳🎉), I'll describe my cover image. Our Galactic Center stands alone and strange. Largely separated from the rest of the Galaxy, it responsible for controlling how much gas eventually flows towards the central supermassive black hole.
