🌌 Major milestone for DESI: full originally planned survey footprint was completed on April 15, ahead of schedule! 47M+ galaxies & quasars mapped → the largest 3D map of the Universe ever made. Keep posted: Observations continue through 2028. More: tinyurl.com/Y5DESI #DESI

Beautiful aurora tonight! Don’t forget to look outside. Arthur’s seat in the background.

Managed to pack in some amateur astronomy on holiday. Not often you get the chance to see the night sky in its full glory. Look out for the andromeda galaxy at the bottom of the image, even visible to the naked eye. Taken in Teide national park (Tenerife) after moonset around 3am. 🔭 #andromeda

I was not expecting to find my face in the RAS A&G magazine this month 😂 But it was great to read the article on @orbyts.bsky.social ! It’s such an impactful initiative! All credit to the great people who make it happen!

Figured I would get in on this whole starter pack thing and list (in whatever order bsky chooses) scientists working on studying galaxies (broadly defined, including galaxy formation/evolution + near-field cosmology). If I missed you and you'd like to be added, let me know! 🧪🔭 go.bsky.app/5ZZtqDy

It’s bad enough the sun gives up at 3:30pm, but now it’s freezing too?! At least it's pretty! 🌄

DESI in the 2024 list of best inventions! Nice to see this beautiful instrument and experiment get some praise 🔭 time.com/7094947/desi...
