It's okay to be different! ✨ Take it from the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 1705, glittering in this week’s #HubbleFriday image. Approximately 17 million light-years from Earth, this galaxy is known as a cosmic oddball due to its size and shape. For more: go.nasa.gov/3rAKFdv

Harry Gully is a first-year PhD student at the Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN, and he is currently developing a method to detect galaxy protoclusters! He also contributed to the creation of a new catalogue of Ultraluminous X-ray Sources - see more here: doi.org/10.1093/mnras/…

Lizzie Taylor is a PhD student at the Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN working on the evolution of galaxies, researching why they stop forming stars! ✨ {c} ESO

Jimi is a PhD student at the Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN. He works on bridging the gap between simulations and observations of distant galaxies by using a rare type of galaxy known as "post-starburst"! {c}nottingham.ac.uk/astronomy/UDS/…

Finally submitted my first first-author paper today! 😁

Today I submitted my PhD Thesis UoN Physics PG, including two science chapters on JWST science 😊. Many people helped me reach this point, but special thanks to my awesome supervisor Christopher Conselice and all the staff at Nottingham. Really happy day.
