hola!!! my first ever paper got out today!!!! it's about how local and large scale environments both affect (in their own way) how galaxies have been building their stars since birth 🫡🌀
here's the arxiv link!

On October 14 it was hard to capture a full view of Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. Taken after the comet's closest approach to our fair planet, this evening skyview almost does though. With two telephoto frames combined, the image stretches about 26 degrees across the sky from top to bottom, looking west from Gates Pass, Tucson, Arizona. Comet watchers that night could even identify globular star cluster M5 and the faint apparition of periodic comet 13P Olbers near the long the path of Tsuchinshan-ATLAS's whitish dust tail above the bright comet's coma. Due to perspective as the Earth is crossing the comet's orbital plane, Tsuchinshan-ATLAS also has a pronounced antitail. The antitail is composed of dust previously released and fanning out away from the Sun along the comet's orbit, visible as a needle-like extension below the bright coma toward the rugged western horizon.

Yesterday I presented in the XVI SEA meeting my results about void galaxies with CAVITY 🤠 the data products (table of global properties and 2D maps) are available with the DR1 for everyone since Monday
What a table to summarise some of the findings of this work!! @cavity_survey#RCSEA2024@torresriosg please explain! Which effect is the most important one at shaping galaxies, the local environment or the large scale structure?
Effect of large scale structure vs. local environment in the evolution of galaxies through the analysis of their star formation histories. Great results from our promising student, @torresriosg, during this week's #RCSEA2024 organised by the @SEA_astronomia at @ParqueCiencias

Last April's Full Moon shines through high clouds near the horizon, casting shadows in this garden-at-night skyscape. Along with canine sentinel Sandy watching the garden gate, the wide-angle snapshot also captured the bright Moon's 22 degree ice halo. But June's bright Full Moon will cast shadows too. This month, the Moon's exact full phase occurs at 01:08 UTC June 22. That's a mere 28 hours or so after today's June solstice (at 20:51 UTC June 20), the moment when the Sun reaches its maximum northern declination. Known to some as a Strawberry Moon, June's Full Moon is at its southernmost declination, and of course will create its own 22 degree halos in hazy night skies.
