That was a ridiculous game for the Yankees. Former MVP Wild Pitch returned.

If any more awful men wish to file their resignation from Congress, for heaven’s sake, send them in. I’m quite at my leisure.

This is all so absurd compared to the shuttle landings.

The intrusive AI tools are so annoying. No, I don’t want helping “filling out this form.” I am reading an original PhD dissertation.

We are looking for two new PhD students to join our group at the University of Southern Queensland to work on exoplanet demographics and atmospheres. See AAS ad below. aas.org/jobregister/...

Well, finished the year 1065 in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. What’s next?

Stanton going for the 50-50 club too

This is the *follow up* to a long email claiming to solve all of physics.

Please spread the word! In addition to becoming an important part of the MESA project, the person in this role would have opportunities to collaborate on scientific software across CCA, which has a vibrant, interactive community of scientists and code developers.

Shout-out to every other Gen Xer that was holding their breath the entire time for the first five mintues of the launch For r e a s o n s

That was nerve wracking.

Artemis II. Good luck!

Today's #UDel astronomy seminar is by Dr. Yoni Brande (Maryland) on Carbon Dioxide and Evidence of Water in the Hottest exo-Neptune.

Hey, I wrote a thing about AI in astrophysics ergosphere.blog/posts/the-ma...

"He's arguing with the robots! You can't defeat the robots!" is an all-time great call

This is my old Division at Ames. The SST branch produced some fantastic planetary science by Jim Pollack, Chris McKay, Jeff Cuzzi, Carol Stoker, Natasha Batalha, and of course Kevin Zahnle. The only one still there is Natasha so sending her good vibes. nasawatch.com/space-scienc...

Spring is here! #UDel

What a final performance by Sakamoto! Now on to the Yankees…

I do like the Jaws program. (figure skating)

Check out this great work by @maddielam.bsky.social and @johannavos.bsky.social for a deep dive in silicate cloud absorption and inclinations! From L dwarfs in AB Dor, we find an interesting trend that lower inclination correlate with the stronger silicate cloud absorption!

I am against in-game interviews but Jazz certainly was entertaining

The picture quality is at least better than the Amazon Prime games, which look like they’re blown up from the 320x240px frames of the original MLBtv broadcasts. So we’ve got that going for us, which is nice

Me, trying to read the name of the batter or the pitcher on the scorebug.

Stanton scored on that!

What’s with the main center field camera on the Netflix game?

Physics enrollments in High schools is declining...now more than ever its important to state effective practices and foster our Physics teacher communities. 🎢🧪 #ITeachPhysics www.aip.org/statistics/h...

"I want to remind you that the future is yours, and it is not known — not by you, not by Georgetown, not by Sam Altman or Elon Musk, not by the chatbot, not by me. And that is a beautiful thing."

Most other external advisory committees in the federal agencies were dissolved in the past year, but the AAAC (a statutory committee), remained intact. Our 2026 annual report to Congress and the directors of NSF, NASA, & DOE is now publicly available: www.nsf.gov/mps/ast/astr...

learn to say no to this stuff from the outset, don't let it get foisted on us, stick to our guns for the things you should actually value. It all dies in the end anyhow...

My PhD advisor, Professor Yuk Yung, has passed away. The suddenness of this - I had only become aware of his illness a week ago - is shocking and it’s surreal that he’s gone. www.caltech.edu/about/news/c...

Congrats Venezuela! A great baseball classic. (Extra congrats to Gleyber Torres)

Generations of Marines would be interested to hear that boots on the ground on an island is not boots on the ground in combat circumstances.

AAS Editor in Chief Search Following the announcement of Ethan Vishniac's upcoming retirement, the AAS is conducting an open search for a new AAS Editor in Chief responsible for ensuring the continued excellence of the AAS journals portfolio. aas.org/posts/opport... 🔭

The year is 2026. Venezuela faces the United States in the WBC, as the matchup takes on extra significance after the United States kidnapped the Venezuelan president, which is at least the 15th or 16th-most batshit story of the last couple months.

Was literally about to post that this call was an op by MLB to rouse public support for ABS thanks

Bluesky really hitting on all cylinders right now because you can tell exactly what’s going on in both the Oscars and the World Baseball Classic

Me: that’s a nice play… oh, it’s not. #WBC

OMG. Everyone on this Sky News program is as openly mocking Trump and the US war plans as a straight news show allows.

Here come the cold giants! A combination of RV and astrometry reveals several "Jupiter analogues", among them one planet (around HIP 39330, a G5V star, ca. 100 ly away) that matches Jupiter quite nicely: a=5.05 au, e=0.078, M=1.67 M_jup. If only we could quickly check for terrestrial planets inside!

Some statistics, which indicate JWST is more than 10:1 oversubscribed (both in terms of hours and proposals): 2,855 proposals requested almost 100,000 hours in Cycle 5, compared to the 8,000 hours available. 254 proposals have been approved

Oh, so it’s JWST notice time? Congrats and condolences

The @aas.org is conducting a search for the AAS Editor in Chief, who is responsible for developing and implementing a long-term editorial strategy for the Society’s journals portfolio. See this link for more details of this full-time position and the application process. journals.aas.org/eicsearch

That was a thrilling game. Love this WBC

6-0 Italy means the exotic 10th inning tiebreakers my physics theorist colleagues dreamed up are thankfully irrelevant. #WBC

pynucastro now supports the StarLib reaction rate library, which includes uncertainties on rates. With pynucastro, you can now create different realizations of the rates, sampling the uncertainties, to look to see how nucleosynthesis is affected: pynucastro.github.io/pynucastro/s... #astro

This is a hell of a game. #WBC

The @axisprobe.bsky.social team learned that the phase A concept study report of AXIS (the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite) will not be reviewed because the lost personnel at NASA Goddard and government shutdown impacted our schedule and budget. 🔭 Here is the PI's e-mail with the explanation.

Not what I would have guessed but the explanation makes sense. (Click through)

Happy International Women's Day! Perfect time for me to (re)share our white paper on increasing the retention of women in professional astrophysics (really full of suggestions that broaden participation in academic science in general). arxiv.org/abs/2512.24465 🧪🔭☄️👩‍🔬

I like this quote: “What class D was supposed to mean is that you were taking a big risk of not getting the science that was as high precision as you were planning on," Hubbard says. "It didn't mean the whole darn thing wouldn't work."
