I am very happy to announce, together with @DrJorgeMelendez , the @IAU_org Symposium 395: Stellar populations in the Milky Way and Beyond https://t.co/36hRBz2dR5 - a symposium to honor the career of Prof. Beatriz Barbuy. in the historic town of Paraty, in Brazil, this November.
Reading a Chapter of Galactic History from a Single Star
The star SOS1 is not like its neighbors — what do high-precision chemical abundances tell us about where this star might have come from? https://t.co/x3Vy1OWyG2
Não podia ter momento melhor para o Brasil levar o Globo de Ouro pela atuação da Fernanda Torres, dois dias antes do ato em defesa da democracia. Eu e a Janja parabenizamos essa grande artista mais uma vez. O país inteiro vibrou. Somos filhos de um Brasil que vale a pena, Fernanda.
🔵#News | The @ESAGaia mission, combined with a novel machine learning technique, has allowed to process 217M stars in an extremely efficient way, revolutionizing our understanding of the galaxy! 🌌✨

Ancient stars discovered on the thin disk of the #milkyway ! Surprising number of ancient stars on sun-like orbits discovered based on data from the @ESAGaia mission. These formed the thin disk of the Milky Way billions of years ago. #MachineLearning

Get fascinating insights 🔎 🔭 into the formation and evolution of our home galaxy, the Milky Way, in a new talk from the Babelsberg Starry Night 🌃 series with Cristina Chiappini. Watch now!📽️ https://t.co/uqvuuBMwMR
The extreme rainfall that led to unprecedented floods in Brazil’s southern state of Rio Grande do Sul was made twice as likely by human-caused climate change 🌧️
The downpours were also intensified by El Niño, while failures in flood defences worsened the impacts. 📷

Have you wondered what shipping the world’s largest camera took? Hear about from the logistics leader herself, Margaux Lopez, in this new video from @SLAClab! 👇
Dear fantastic and busy astronomers… as expected :) the number of abstracts jumped from around 150 to more than 300 in 24 hours. Thanks to a great SOC we have already distributed talks and posters. We do have a long waiting list. Please let us know if your plans have changed.
Dear friends and colleagues, tomorrow (April 17th) is the deadline for registration/abstracts and IAU grant submission for our IAUS395. We have already reached our 150 participants soft-goal :) but we will be still accepting abstracts coming in until the deadline of April 17th.
Tragédia no Rio Grande do Sul: tá na hora do agronegócio ser cobrado
O agronegócio, isento de impostos, exporta tudo que pode e desmata sem piedade, com a ajuda de políticos da extrema-direita que desmontam a política ambiental do país

Reminder: global warming brings a lot more extreme rain 🌧️ 🌧️ 🌧️. It’s basic physics, the data prove it, and climate scientists have warned you for 30 years about this.

It will get worse until we stop emitting.
Your home could be next.
How can we not love Gaia? A halo black hole coming from a collapse of a very metal poor massive star that was caught nearby when crossing the disk! Not enough? And maybe accreted from an external galaxy! Congrats!!!!!!
Gaia spots Milky Way's most massive black hole of stellar origin! It's 33 solar masses, dormant, 2nd closest to Earth at ~2000 light years away, part of a wide binary with an old giant star, with estimated age of 11 Gyr: https://t.co/m26bbmpyFO #GaiaBH3 https://t.co/AllbZqVjQY
