Do you have plans for the weekend?
Come visit us at the @w_jahr#universeontour roadshow in Bamberg. You can experience a black hole through VR, ask astronomers everything you might want to know, and visit the amazing planetariumsshow!
Any plans for the end of November? How about joining us in Heidelberg for the first AG winter school? We are delighted that this event can take place at the Haus der Astronomie on the 26th and 27th of November. We invite all young AG members to part take in the event.
And it's a wrap! All participants had a great time at our first hybrid meeting #ag2022bremen discussing astronomy and astrophysics. Thank you to our friends from @ZARM_de and @UniBremen for organizing this amazing meeting! Looking forward to seeing you all again at #ag2023berlin
Thank you!!! Glad that everyone had a great time! However, this was a tremendous team-effort by people from the AG office and the local people from Bremen! It was a lot of fun working with you all at #ag2022bremen
After being awarded to Prof. Dr. Eva Grebel for the first time in 2022, the Caroline-Herschel-medal will honour a female astronomer working in the UK in 2023. This prestigious prize is awarded for outstanding achievements in astronomy, leadership and mentoring.

Exciting #research news from #theobservatory!
PhD student Ole König & Prof. Joern Wilms led the investigation of a very bright transient, detected by @eROSITA_SRG in 2020. It turned out to be a nova during the 'fireball' phase!
