We knew it was going to be bad, but now we know how bad: A study of half a million stars shows that their planets rapidly vanish as the stars grow old and bloated. The planets may get shredded, evaporated, or (most likely) dragged by tides into a fiery death. 🧪🔭 warwick.ac.uk/news/pressre...

@drskyskull.bsky.social found this cool old Optics book and thought of you!

@chanda.blacksky.app on the off chance that you like used books as much as I do, I thought you might be interested in the one's the @astrosociety.org is selling - shelves F, and lower G especially... www.asplibraryproject.com

These most definitely qualify as #SciArt! I wish I could frame all the covers and make a gallery wall with them. 🎨

ICYMI - Halle Berry is all out of f*cks "Gavin Newsom, has vetoed our menopause bill, not one, but two years in a row, But that’s OK, because he’s not going to be governor forever, and the way he has overlooked women… by devaluing us, he probably should not be our next president either."

Gracefully carving through the solar corona, a mini eruption of filament plasma erupted from the Sun earlier today! Beautiful.

Decidedly NOT AWESOME 🫣

This plot is terrifying 🧪 🔭

Myself and @asborlaff.bsky.social feature on the Nature Podcast chatting about this paper on planned satellite constellations and their impact on astronomical research. We are also very concerned about satellites impacting star gazing for everyone and losing the shared wilderness of the night sky.

These markets have baskets, ceramic art, fiber art, paintings, photography, wood carving, tattoos, tooth gems, custom sign painting, glasswork, leather, sex toys, vintage clothes, photo booths, jewelry, metalwork, plants and more. Truly so much incredible skill on display for you to support!!!

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

You've probably heard about how the rapidly increasing numbers of satellites are affecting #astronomy. A new paper in @nature.com looks at the possible future for space-based telescopes — and finds 96% of some images could be impacted. 🧪🔭🛰️ By @jennaahart.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...

@walsh.bsky.social I'm time-banditing and just heard the episode where you talked about the 2 second glitch in your record player speaker... hope you don't hate those albums now. 😅

Morning Universe!

My goal next September is to instill some wonder and stillness in visitors. Contemplating the nature of the Grand Canyon and the skies above it through solar meditations, moon walks, star maps, and time travel. I want people to leave feeling more deeply connected with our planet and our universe. 🧪🔭

In today's non-sucky news of the world... I'm pinching myself because what do you mean I get to spend a month at the Grand Canyon next year sharing the universe as #AstronomerinResidence?!? 🤩 🔭 www.grandcanyon.org/about/news/2...

Picard writing tip: Getting your point across is more important than following archaic rules. It's okay to boldly split infinitives.

Surprisingly, the size distributions of shattered fragments and spattered drops follow a simple power law. Now researchers have shown that the statistical regularities of fragmentation can emerge from a combination of maximum randomness and kinematic constraints. physics.aps.org/articles/v18...
