@davidwhogg Hey! Its as if gravity just changed direction!

[Phil Marshall @drphilmarshall]

Many thanks to @AlvindeDiaspar++ @ivezic++ Nic Walton and @MomWontWait++ for organizing an absolutely merveilleux #LSSTEurope meeting in Lyon this week, and @astrokiwi for tweeting up a storm. I think Four @AstroGoldStars are in order! :-)

@PeterYoachim I'd hit "Like" if I wasn't still working on it

@astronomyblog nice to know that someone has a vision for our communities that is diffraction limited

"Trying and failing was actively encouraged at #AstroHackWeek, and, better yet, demonstrated by senior participants." Effortlessly, even! :) https://t.co/5bPTukWbSS
