Not going to lie, I was pretty excited when these plots finally came out.

Look out beautiful these simulations are. 😍

What is the best way to prepare for our upcoming #ScienceComedy shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival? Watch a comedy show with other scientists!

We decided to leave the lab and head to Brunswick to watch some up-and-coming comedians perform. Such a fun night!

@SaraWebbScience @taylorswift13 I had already ordered the vinyl within minutes of the announcement. 😂

@FiPanther The nearest university to me that a lot of my friends were going to didn't seem to have any Astronomy staff. So I decided I didn't want to go there and chose Macquarie instead because it has an Astronomy undergraduate degree.

The Universe is expanding! Kicking off Astronomy lectures in 2023 with Dr Adam Batten @adamjbatten "The Hubble Tension: How are we trying to solve one of the biggest crises in Astronomy?" Thurs 30 March at 6pm @Swinburne ATC101

@Juanespejo0313 I'll be seeing you in Garching in July! 😁

@laurenaquilina Melbourne, Australia? 🥺

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

What is your random tip, tool, feature or software in acedemia/astronomy that you wish you knew about earlier? I wanna know.

Two weeks in a row now we have finished the night with an extremely tense and close Poppygander Blood on the Clocktower game (@BloodClocktower).

It think Poppygander is fast becoming my favourite custom script to play in person. 😈

Found some black holes with hair 😆

@AstroOrca @KylaAdams5 might have suggestions.

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

@KylaAdams5 giving an excellent public lecture on quantum extremes for the Wallal Expedition Centenary at the University of Western Australia.

"Is the sun alive?"
"Are the stars alive?"
"Is the moon alive?"
"How does gravity make things move?"
"Does the moon move?"
"What are the cracks on the sun?" (i.e sun spots and flares)
"Is the sun hotter than it is at the equator?"
"How do we know what the sun is made of?"

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

Just got to speak with a bunch of 5-6 year olds about the Sun and if it is alive and they had lots of amazing questions.

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

With a new headshot, it's probably about time I updated my profile picture to something taken after 2019.

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

@iFeelYouJohanna @BloodClocktower I may have been the storyteller for that game if it was yesterday. 😂 It was wild.

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

@karlglazebrook This might be discussion worthy at CAS?

[James Bullock @jbprime]

Massive z~10 galaxy candidates from JWST violate integral constraint of available baryons in LCDM. Either stellar mass (or something in data) is wrong or LCDM is wrong. Nice short, clear paper by @MBKplus https://t.co/9j2uhj0q0y

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

Perth friends! I'll be in Perth visiting for a couple weeks from June 21st and would be keen to catch up with everyone. 😁

[Dr. Adam Batten @adamjbatten]

This is actually really cool for writing papers/documents with multiple monitors! 😍
