Mostly thinking over thinking!

Other times, building software in between Astrophysical Data Analysis and UI Design (pretty broad spectrum🌈, I know!)

Today marks a new era for me (yep!) as I joined @caltechipac as Applications Developer - to help #astrophysics researchers expand our understanding of the #Universe ✨

It's been heck of a journey to reach this far!!!🥹

Breathtaking!!

[NASA @NASA]

All mission instruments have successfully deployed, and SPHEREx and PUNCH mission teams will wait to confirm signal.

Watch as SPHEREx slowly moves away from the rocket's second stage and begins its journey.

Last Friday, we wrapped up another #TARDISCon🥳

It was a 2-week #unconference where we worked on improving code's efficiency, implementing new features, discussing the latest #scientific insights related to #supernovae.

We also enjoyed group outings, including an escape room!

From "Oh no! I can't say no." to "Oh yes, I CAN say no!", this #ebook takes you on a journey of self-curiosity to master the discomfort of no-saying.

It's one of its kind. Don't miss it!

Proud of ya @ashiwiz 🙌

It was sooo fun meeting many of these faces finally in person, after working with them for the last 4 years virtually. Learned a lot of new things and had stimulating conversations!

Can't wait for #tardiscon '24!

[TARDIS SN @tardis_sn]

#tardiscon '23 was a massive success thanks to the amazing #team that made it possible at @MSU_astro and to the many visitors that brought ideas and enthusiasm. 🙌

We hacked together multiple projects ranging from #Astrophysics to #MachineLearning, and enriched our #community!

Whenever I get to know someone who seems perfect, I end up disappointed. Whenever I get to know someone who I think is the worst of the worst, I'm pleasantly surprised. Angels and demons aren't real.

#Adaptability is hard.

Not because it's about #learning new things.

But because it's equally about #unlearning old habits. ☯️

@Megha_Pathak_ Bestest homie 💖

[Jaladh Singhal @curiousPolygon]

Still feels like a dream when I step outside my room and realise, oh! I'm in the US now.

Fortunate to have understanding friends and family who supported me in this insane journey that I dared to undertake!

Starting as a CS undergrad from India who wanted to do something unique, to getting a job in the US at @Caltech, making #OpenScience contributions in between.

Can't thank @wkerzendorf enough who not only mentored me at @tardis_sn but also introduced me to @ResearchSoftEng

As an introvert, you know you have made right #friends when your head isn't aching, on your way back home after meeting them 🥹

[Tim Urban @waitbutwhy]

There are an estimated 3 trillion trees on Earth and an estimated 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe. So every time you see three trees, they represent two observable galaxies.

@DarshanaMehta25 Yep same. It's a learning journey!

Are #twenties all about longing for things you didn't know you needed, and then either making efforts to achieve them or making peace with the lack of them? 🥲

Or is it how the whole #life gonna be?

[Jaladh Singhal @curiousPolygon]

@pixelbrew_ Haha, good to know about the perspective of someone who has successfully graduated from the #twenties university 😁
