JWST cycle 5 personal statistics: participated to 66 proposals (~2.24% of the total, ~2940), total requested time ~4000 hr (~50% of the available time, ~8000hr). Estimated over-subscription rate is about 11-12, so only 5-7 proposals will survive in the end 🥲...

Any photos for such hard-copy of HST proposals? I think it will be quite educational

Some thoughts about the military parade in my hometown of Washington DC today -- specifically, the route. Military parades in DC are quite rare. But when they happen, they have always begun, symbolically and geographically, at the Capitol and moved outward. 1/

繁星闪烁着——
深蓝的天空，
何曾听得见他们对语？
沉默中 微光里 他们深深的互相颂赞了。

--- 冰心《繁星》，发表于1923年。

(English translation)

The stars are twinkling—
In the deep blue sky,
Have you ever heard them speak?
In silence,
In faint light,
They offer praise to one another, deep and true.

— Bing Xin, “Stars,” 1923

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

I also heard the same rumor. Based on the cycle 3 timeline slides last year, cycle 4 notification would happen on March 5. I guess it would be later than that.

No clue what was going on on their side. I tried to dig out more information about these authors and then I realized that I once encountered the second author (who is now a professor) about 15 years ago as an undergrad once I saw his picture ...

I am sad to let everyone in the astronomy community know that Glenn Schneider passed away yesterday. I've worked together with him closely in the past decade and learned a lot from him. He had a long career, culminating in various HST related projects. He was a lead scientist of the NICMOS project,

I’m an NSF panel reviewer that was scheduled to meet today. Just got notice that all NSF panels were canceled today. I reviewed some innovative proposals in support of students. Devastating if these scholars don’t get to do this work. For the love of science & students I hope this is just a delay.💔

I ran almost every moring during the #dg2024 conference and logged 70+ km running distance in Hiroshima. Enjoyed the mountains, the trails, the falling leaves and singing birds. I am thinking of planning my next visit to Japan very soon.

Slide presentation of LIRGs

Slide showing IR spectrum and JWST

Slide showing NGC7469 outflow schematic

Tanio Diaz-Santos kicks off the meeting with a fantastic review of what we've learned about LIRGs and hidden starbursts/AGN with JWST from PHANGS and GOALS. Thanks for the shoutout to our 2022 paper on AGN feedback in NGC7469 and all the fantastic work from GOALS! Spitzer didn't solve everything 😆

Some random photos of #GeminidsMeteorShower last night from 11:00 pm-1:30 am, shot near the Saguaro NP, Tucson, AZ. Clearly it was not the peak with a ZHR < 40-50 (roughly estimated).

I guess the meteor shower would be more spectacular for people in Asia. (UTC 19:00, Dec 14)
