The nostalgia this triggered! Show me a better plotting package!

[Josef Dean @JosefNDean]

Sure matplotlib is cool, but what if I want to load my loss curves into the 2006 hit Flash game LineRider?

So proud of #Brighton. No space for hate on our streets!

These four seem fairly crestfallen if you ask me. Requiring police protection must be very humiliating.

Only wish the several microphones I was wearing had worked to get better audio! 😅

[Physics at Sussex @PhysicsAtSussex]

Don't miss the next instalment of the Sussex Universe lecture series by Will Roper THIS EVENING at 6pm on "'Simulating the first galaxies: a tale of birds and bug fixes" 🌌🐦🪲

Can’t make it? We’ll be uploading it to our YouTube channel https://t.co/X8xALVm7Qv 👀

[DiRAC @DiRAC_HPC]

New DiRAC simulations suggest Saturn’s rings originated in a massive collision. Researchers from Durham and Glasgow Universities argue the rings evolved from the icy debris of two moons that collided & shattered only a few hundred million years ago

JWST and @AstronomySussex at @Observatory_Sci’s Astronomy Festival.
If you’re around, come and talk to us and take a free JWST badge. 😎😍

Yesterday after 6 months of waiting, @VRubinObs informed me that I can’t access #LSST commissioning data as a UK-affiliated astronomer because of my country.
It’s so frustrating to face discrimination because of where I was born and the government that I’m even against.

[ESA's Euclid mission @ESA_Euclid]

🥁 They're here... the first test images from the #DarkUniverse 🕵️ detective give us a tantalising glimpse of what is yet to come from a fully calibrated mission later this autumn 🤩

Explore the #ESAEuclid images here 👉 https://t.co/InMugFwnv6 and below 👇

[Chris Lovell @chrisclovell]

A brief but fun time @fosgoodwood chatting about @NASAWebb and @ESA_Euclid (and a small cameo from @NASAHubble)

These images make the outreach job so easy 🤩

[William Roper @WillJRoper]

Come down and see us at the #JWST exhibit at Goodwood #FOS and hear how JWST is revolutionising infrared astronomy!

Is it narcissistic to Retweet a post about winning an award 🤔

From promoting equality to personalised medicine, the other winners are doing fantastic work and helping society to boot! I just make code go fast and make pretty pictures...

[Physics at Sussex @PhysicsAtSussex]

So proud of PhD student Will Roper for winning the @sussexuni Adam Weiler Award for outstanding impact in his research 👏🤩

Will has been instrumental in developing new computer simulations in astrophysics 🔭🌃 https://t.co/TwGwR28yr3
