"Engineer or Astronomer?" - They asked.
"How about both!" - I said

Elated to announce that following my bachelor's in electronics and communication engineering, I will now be beginning my Ph.D. in Astronomy at Texas A&M University @TAMU this Fall!!!

Psuedocolor rendition composed from multiple exposures of SN 2023ixf taken from 1.3m DFOT in BVR filters from Devasthal. It is a very nearby (6.4 million parsec or about 21 million light-years) #supernova detected in M101, the #PinwheelGalaxy.

Breaking my Twitter moratorium to make sure astronomers are aware there is a new supernova in M101 at 7 Mpc. It is a core collapse supernova caught very young, at 14.9 mag. Supernovae this close only come around once a decade, so get on it! https://t.co/s3a6CuxLMd

The #supernova in M101 has all hands on deck, on the ground and in space. Here is an image courtesy of Peter Brown from the UVOT instrument @NASASwift. SN 2023ixf is slightly left of center. It’s so bright it’s nearly or is saturating the detector. Exciting times!

@jacqdanso Congratulations @jacqdanso 😍😍🎉🎉

Had an amazing time at TAMU Physics and Engineering Festival doing solar observation and explaining these amazingly curious kids about solar flares and sunspots!

[Hubble @NASAHubble]

News from #AAS241!

Hubble recorded a star's final moments as it was ripped apart and eaten up by a black hole – getting twisted into a donut-like shape in the process.

If you compliment my shoes this week at #AAS241, I'll say "thanks! These are my conference shoes!"

Come talk to me about supernovae and try this out!^

[Dr. Lauren Aldoroty @space_veggie]

Come to my #AAS241 talk about my new accepted paper, "Bump Morphology of the CMAGIC Diagram" (arXiv:2210.06708)! Supernovae 3, Thursday 2-3:30 PM. 🌟💥

[Dr. Lauren Aldoroty @space_veggie]

Oh yeah??? well @yastronomy is giving an iPoster presentation during the Monday 9-10 AM Supernovae session, on "SED Modeling Type Ia Supernovae in the Ultraviolet" and is ALSO on the job market. So go see his poster, too!

[Karan Jani @AstroKPJ]

Right in time to announce Ph.D. positions in my group, and broadly in our astrophysics program for this Fall 2023.

And to add - @Gizmodo has ranked @VanderbiltU as one of the "universities with the best astronomy and astrophysics programs." !! 🚀🌠

[ESO @ESO]

1/ #ESO60Years What discoveries do we expect to enable in the next decades?

Time for our second expected discovery. This time we have a bunch of discoveries right here close to us.

It's fun observing at @mcdonaldobs
