Coming soon... "An astrophysicist breaks down Project Hail Mary FEATURING RYAN GOSLING!"
#ProjectHailMary #astrophysics
When Space Barbie met Ken ✨ “An astrophysicist breaks down the science of Project Hail Mary FEATURING RYAN GOSLING” video coming very soon! 🤯🥳🫠 yes I’m still freaking out about this! And I got to go the London Premiere - what a surreal few days!

Excited and honoured to be giving the Caroline Herschel Prize Lecture on Thursday 20th November at the @uniofbath.bsky.social and online 🔭
I will be talking about all things supermassive black holes and quasars! 🌌
@royalastrosoc.bsky.social @sagencl.bsky.social
Love it! Nice work Jade
All the best for your retirement @astromikemerri.bsky.social! And nice job as always @bradyharan.bsky.social
Want some fun in the New Year? Why not laugh at some space memes with me: youtu.be/Dj-qEjc-vdw?...
End of an era 💔 I remember getting my copy of “Binney & Merrifield” aka Galactic Dynamics - THE Galaxy Evolution textbook. No grad student could go without. When I finally met Mike and he became my boss at Nottingham I never missed a chance to pop into his office to chat

Congrats Hannah! 🥳
Thank you for collating those and sharing Julia 🙏🏻
JPL is one of NASA's major science and climate centers—home to the Mars rovers and 1000s of people. Firefighters held back the flames at JPL’s gates, but many of our coworkers lost their homes. Here’s a thread of their public GoFundMes if you can share & support however possible:
The @aasoffice.bsky.social will issue full registration refunds for all of our colleagues impacted by the devastating fires in CA. If you are an #AAS245 registrant and in CA standby for an email on how to request your registration. We at the AAS are heartbroken for you and ready to support.
Thanks Ethan!
Trying to find colleagues’ reactions to the recent Seifert paper claiming they dark energy doesn’t exist and that the supernova data prefers a timescale cosmology for an upcoming video. If you know of any threads/blogs etc from cosmologists please link them below for me! 🙏🏻 #astronomy
I'm just saying... if the iPhone camera resolution continues following exponential growth, it will reach @vrubinobs.bsky.social resolution by about 2043... 🔭📷
Haha people will have to wait. I’ve only been back in the office 2 days 🫠 and my own science research is distracting me from doing a deep dive for a full video
Here’s the paper: academic.oup.com/mnrasl/artic...
I thought I was going to have a quiet return to work this week, but nope! 😅 Turns out a paper was published before Christmas claiming dark energy doesn’t exist. Many of you have been asking for me to explain it and give my thoughts - it’s all coming in this month’s Night Sky News episode on 16th Jan
As someone who does a lot of science communication, I have a lot of opinions about giving talks. The strongest one probably being: if there’s writing on your slides that you’re reading out verbatim, then what are you even there for?
So sorry to hear about your Dad Sarah. We’ll raise a glass in his honour 🥂
Yes please!
Night Sky News for November has landed! Thanks @drbecky.bsky.social!
Excellent episode as she discusses black holes and dark energy and the crisis in cosmology.
🔭
Eras tour time! 🥳 we’re excited for Taylor Swift at Wembley
@drbecky.bsky.social discusses the mass gap between neutron stars and black holes.
Definitely worth the watch!

I made a video about what version of the multiverse (quantum mechanics’ many worlds, or eternal inflation’s bubble universes) holds in the sci-fi show Rick & Morty. It’s fun, chock full of accessible physics, and (if I do say so myself) my best edited video🤓enjoy! #astronomy

Wow! A plethora of pertinent papers were discussed in Night Sky News by @drbecky.bsky.social! Soooo many!!! 😃
🔭
End of an era for the little Ingenuity helicopter on Mars 😢🥺 incredible achievement and smashed expectations #astronomy
@drbecky.bsky.social talks a good bit about the false color images of Uranus and Neptune. Faskinating!
🔭
All my astro colleagues are together at #aas243 in New Orleans this week and I’ve got some serious FOMO! Good luck to everyone giving a talk, I can’t wait to read up on everything presented (plus if there’s anything people want me to highlight on my YouTube channel from AAS, let me know!)
A little fun for the new year... @drbecky.bsky.social looks at space memes!
Enjoy! 😃
