Thanks to all who came out to the 2026 Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO) Open House this past Saturday. It was a joy to meet all of the visitors and explore the future of DSA together. #Astronomy #OVROOpenHouse

School is officially back in session, which means the DSA is also back in the classroom. Dr. Katie Jameson and Dr. Cameron Hummels returned to 5th Grade classrooms.

What exactly are FRBs, and why do we want to observe them? Allow Professor of Astronomy Vikram Ravi to explain. 📡

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) can be used to map out the distribution of matter in our universe. The Caltech Deep Synoptic Array (DSA) will be able to find tens of thousands of FRBs. Listen to Professor of Astronomy Vikram Ravi to explain more and why that is so exciting.

The future Deep Synoptic Array will catch tens of thousands of FRBs, enhancing the power of this cosmology tool: https://t.co/1HuPnA5dog

Our Special Session at #AAS248 was a great success‼️

We highlighted the wide range of science that data from the DSA will enhance: Multimessenger Astronomy, the Dynamic Radio Sky, Our Cosmic History (deep HI and continuum imaging), as well as the Dark Sector & Strong Gravity.

Need a pick-me-up while you’re at #AAS248? Stop by the DSA booth in the expo hall for a bag of custom-roasted DSA coffee beans or one of our new camp mugs! ☕

The NNRY Star Train in Ely is a unique way to enjoy the dark skies. And it was just featured in @nytimes! For the past two years, @CaltechAstro and the DSA provided professional astronomer volunteers that helped passengers learn more about the night sky: https://t.co/dfjeSqIKdZ
