While we were in competition I want to commend them on their clear, prompt and professional conduct through the whole process. This is how science ought to be done! Independent verification of results done in a spirit of openness!
There is also another paper by Felipe Rojas et al on the same object. The papers are independent but we agreed a simultaneous submission. Give theirs a read too: arxiv.org/abs/2602.13125
My third first author paper “TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a 180 day transiting warm super-Jupiter” is now on the arXiv!!!

Grateful to whoever lit up a joint on my street because at least something is masking the smell of sun baked split rubbish bags
Also I enjoyed the new movie a lot. Bright hopeful superman is back!
It’s interesting comic book writers in the 50s wrote around superman coming from an inhospitable planet due to its “red sun” and being stronger from Earth’s “yellow sun”. Given all the current scientific debate about the (un)habitability of planets around red M dwarf stars.
Praying for @davehone.bsky.social in this trying time with the two largest most recent paleomedia projects featuring spinosaurus as an aquatic pursuit predator
If you can’t to the time (gestures to end credits of return of the king extended edition) don’t do the crime (gestures to myself)
