🌟 A star is born!

Behind the curtain of dust and gas in these “Cosmic Cliffs” are previously hidden baby stars, now uncovered by Webb. We know — this is a show-stopper. Just take a second to admire the Carina Nebula in all its glory: https://t.co/tlougFWg8B #UnfoldTheUniverse

Toruń is the birth place of famous astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, known for the heliocentric model of the universe. So lot's of the city is astronomy themed.

An interesting talk about filaments by @astrosuri at #EAS2022

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

Some beautiful SiO maps in this talk

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

Atefeh Mitra Aghababaei up next to tell us about filamentary accretion and NGC6334 V #EAS2022 #s7

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

Gwenllian Williams from the University of Leeds giving a very interesting talk on filaments with the VLA and ALMA.

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

Lots of fantastic astrochemistry talks today and tomorrow at #EAS2022. Looking forward to lots of great talks across three different sessions, including our colleague @astrochemhannah, who will be talking about glycine in S7c this afternoon. #molecules

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

Lots of great sessions at #EAS2022 today, including Diversity and Inclusion in European Astronomy. #ss34.

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

@dr_paul_woods If you can't find them, go and find @astrochemhannah, she has more.

[Molecular Astrophysics Lab @malab_ncu]

We have lots of stickers to give away. Find them in the exhibitors Hall. #EAS2022
