The awesome @JWST_Telescope is completely open for any researcher anywhere in the world. Dual anonymous peer review means a focus on the science. Here's a gift for astronomers in Africa or anywhere in the world. How will you use it? #astronomy2024 @stsci

Did you'll see how Julien absolutely ATE those @PUMA shots & left no crumbs?

Like sis is absolutely gorgeous & breathtaking in those photos!!!

I smell the brand deals coming because how can you not have that face getting your products flying off the shelves!

Look at her😍!!

Welcome to the first ever (as far as I know) fully hybrid poster session setup! Each screen will be a zoom room so the poster presenter can be either in front of the screen or inside the screen (same for participants). Let's see how this goes at kickoff tomorrow 🤞#astronomy2024

[IAU GA 2024 🌍 @astronomy2024]

We’re still buzzing from yesterday’s spectacular opening ceremony! 🎉 But the excitement continues—today, we have a special event with Astronaut Sian Proctor. 🚀✨

Introducing “Umnyele wezulu,” the IAU GA 2024 daily newspaper. In isiXhosa, it means “the backbone of the heavens,” a poetic name for the Milky Way. Stay informed and inspired with us! 🌌

Why is this cool?? Because it’s one step closer to making a new element - unbinilium - which would be the heaviest element ever synthesized.

What’s cool? Scientist at Berkeley found a new way to make Livermorium (an element with 116 protons! So, just 4 protons away from Unbinilium) by putting titanium-50 in a cyclotron for 22 days and smashing it into another atom. And with all that energy, they only got out two atoms of Livermorium. 😅

Yes, this was tweeted by Dianna!
