Check out a video summary of my new paper studying the impacts of how we model host stars on transiting planets! Thank you to @MSU_astro and @Astro_JRod for a great visit as well as @bsgaudi and @exofastupdates Read here: https://t.co/Dpj7riVlyC

@AlisonEDuck , a visiting PhD candidate from the Astronomy department at the Ohio State University, tells us about her recent paper on the uncertainty in determining the size of the star KELT-15 and its exoplanet KELT-15b, by applying different methods.

@betterlovers and @jordanbuckley BROUGHT IT tonight!!!!

[astrobites @astrobites]

From @toribonidie: The authors of today’s paper put forth theoretical models of how habitable exoplanets might appear to the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) using the molecules present in the Earth’s atmosphere from earlier eons 🔭✨️

[Dr Lisa Đặng @Astro_LisaDang]

I’ll be recruiting graduate students and researchers for Fall of 2025 interested in studying exoplanets and their climates through observational astronomy. In addition to student positions, there are postdoc opportunities at @UWaterloo.

[🦈Shark Lady🦈 @soFISHtication]

Oh, you want a thread 🧵 of all my @SciShow videos that have been released so far? I gotchu covered!

First, allow me and the one and only @hankgreen to answer some of your burning fish questions!

[astrobites @astrobites]

From Jack Lubin @LubysLemmas : The Kepler dataset appears to be split between single planet systems and multi-planet systems. Could this be because systems become dynamically hot over time? 🔭✨

HEY ASTRONOMY STUDENTS! if you are preparing to go to #AAS245 this January then go watch this iPoster tutorial I made in collaboration with @AAS_Office specifically for YOU. I give you all the details of how to make an iPoster and some tips to make your poster stand out in the crowd! #AcademicChatter

We have a telescope!🤩

Last week, summit staff successfully installed Rubin Observatory's combined primary/tertiary mirror.

With all three mirrors & the commissioning camera in place, we officially—for the first time in 15 years of construction—have a complete telescope!🥳

[Shreyas Vissapragada @astroshrey]

v excited about this new work from Mike Greklek-McKeon!! his incredibly thorough efforts have truly unveiled the nature of the TOI-1266 system, which contains some of the highest-TSM sub-Neptunes known https://t.co/mb4T4orEqu

[Dr. Caprice Phillips @CapricePhillips]

THAT TALK WAS SO COOL AND AMAZING! I learned so much! Go go go @astro_beauty ! Amazing job! Math, computer science, heliophysics, what can't she do?! I'm in awe as always! #BlackInAstro

[astrobites @astrobites]

From Kylee Carden: During a phase of planet formation, planetary embryos interact, collide, and/or combine to form the surviving planets we know and love. Simulating this phase is computationally challenging, but could machine learning help out? 🔭✨️

Registration and abstract submission are now open for February's Know Thy Star, Know Thy Planet 2, a follow-on to 2017's #KnowThyStar.✨📷
#KnowThyStar2 is organized around in-person attendance but talks will be livestreamed. For prelim agenda & dates: https://t.co/WDaN9L6Acl

[Tatyana Woodall @TatyanaZaria]

Some very cool research on planet formation and Super-Earths out from @KierstenBoley and @OSUAstro. Everyday we learn something new about the universe: 🌟🌍🌟 https://t.co/mS5kuLDXfG

[Jorge Lillo-Box @jlillobox]

K2-399b is NOT a planet. Today, we publish in A&A an unusual paper: a planet demotion. We show that the "confirmed" Saturn planet that was wandering the Neptune desert is actually a hierarchical eclipsing binary. https://t.co/NAEyaFXzPW

By clinching a spot in the @LeaguesCup 2024 Final with a 3-1 victory tonight, the @ColumbusCrew have advanced to three cup finals in a nine-month span (2023 MLS Cup, 2024 Concacaf Champions Cup).

[elvira🌼 @viracruzz]

My research paper is out in the world 🇲🇽🤍🎉
“On the Progenitor of the Crab Pulsar”, Cruz-Cruz & Kochanek et al. 2024

I hope you all get a chance to read it or just take a glance at it 😅
