Check out the stunning view of the SN 1006 supernova remnant captured by Xtend!

This celestial marvel lies in the Lupus constellation, roughly 7,000 light-years away. Over the past millennium, it has expanded to a 65 light-years in diameter, still expanding at 5,000 km/s.

JAXA, NASA reveal 1st images from XRISM X-ray space telescope space.com/japan-nasa-xri…

JAXA(Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) The team used Resolve to look at the remains of a supernova explosion called N132D. The large spikes in the spectrum show us that this stellar wreckage contains silicon, sulfur, calcium, argon, and iron. This is the most detailed X-ray spectrum of this object ever obtained.

🌟 Exciting News! 🌌 First light images are now live! 🛰️ Explore the intricate details of the N132D supernova remnant and the vast expanse of galaxy cluster Abell 2319.

This stunning new Webb image is a gift from a past star. In near-infrared light, supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A) resembles a shiny ornament. Embedded within gas from the star are the materials for new stars & planets: go.nasa.gov/3Rkqoo4

Can’t believe it took 30 years, but the karma from 1993 Notre Dame finally caught up with FSU ☠️

Loving all the new followers lately. #KeepCLIMBing

My statement on the efforts to silence me:

People who didn’t live through 9/11 or are too young to remember the media mood after probably can’t fully appreciate how big of a deal it is that even Wolf Blitzer is like WTFFFF THAT WAS A REFUGEE CAMP

That is how bad this situation is

PSA for grad students:

it is absolutely possible to have a successful career in science and *not do this.*

If you enjoy working weekends, do it! If you prefer using weekends for other activities, then do those! Find what works for you, and work smarter, not harder.

XRISM Resolve detector has reached 50 mK, and preliminary data is fantastic. Can't wait to share it with the world!
