I've posted these a lot but it's worth remembering that all NASA spending *ever*, across 65 budgets, fully adjusted for inflation, is less than the last three pentagon budgets. The soft power ROI contrast is insane.

¡Chile fue escogido como sede del evento de astronomía más grande del mundo! 🔭🌌

La Asamblea General de la Unión Astronómica Internacional se realizará en nuestro país en 2030, lo que consolida a Chile como un país de ciencia capaz de organizar grandes eventos mundiales. 🌎

Amrutha talks about multi-lambda identification of infalling groups around massive galaxy cluster #Sestogroups24

[Fabio Gastaldello @fabiogasta]

Kick off of the last day of the conference ! We keep going with the powerful spectroscopic surveys with Haines showing CHANCES, the 4MOST public spectroscopic survey for cluster galaxy evolution #Sestogroups24

@pswidlicki Liked the disastrous election campaign of Jo Swinson. Loves the disastrous election campaign of Rishi Sunak.

[Chris Haines @CP_Haines]

@sundersays Sunak would have us believe that asylum seekers in France got wind of the July 4 election date even before his gambling election campaign team. Impressive.

[Chris Haines @CP_Haines]

@Conservatives The Conservative party coming out against women getting stuff sorted. OK. Note taken.

[Chris Haines @CP_Haines]

@sundersays That was one of their April fools stories though.

@PolitlcsUK @DailyMailUK Tomorrow we'll learn from the same survey that 150% of them will leave the country the day after Labour get in.

@AbranCancha8 No hay estadio disponible en la Región Metropolitana? Hacen sorteo para elegir canchas? Parece de sí.

@StretfordPaddck That feeling when Antony comes on.

@UKinChile @BritGeoSurvey @sernageomincl @meconomia @MinMineria_cl @udeantofagasta @UTarapaca @Gob_Copiapo Sorry that I missed this event at my university. I had do idea it was happening.

[Chris Haines @CP_Haines]

@BestForBritain @EdConwaySky It is notable how every single forecast since 2007 looks exactly the same, with debt rising rapidly for 3 years, flattening in year 4 and magically declining in year 5. And yet this decline never materialises in real life. A mystery to behold.

[ESO @ESO]

1/ The 4MOST instrument, led by @AIP_Potsdam , will be installed at ESO's VISTA telescope, where it will collect spectra 🌈 of millions of objects over several years.

And one of its key components is about to start its journey from Europe to Chile! ⛴️

@RobDotHutton Even the house looks sad at the thought of living through 2024 under Sunak.

@t0nyyates "These MA courses are far too popular!", laments Professor Matt, thinking sadly about all the teaching he will have to do.

@angrypiln There is no pleasing some people. Complaining when the tree is not felled. Complaining when the tree has fallen.
