I'm an observational astrophysicist, so often I call myself an astronomer. My friends often laugh because they have to tell me the latest cool astronomy news.

Do you love your astronomy? There's plenty for you to enjoy at this year's The Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition. Wonder at NASA Webb Telescope and feel the Moon's mountains and craters on a piece of artwork by Luke Jerram at the 6-day event, which runs from 2 to 7 July.

What if we could see back to the beginning of the universe? We could see galaxies forming. But what did galaxies look like back then? These questions took a step forward recently with the release of the analysis of a James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) image that included the most

Traveling to London today to talk about #JWST at the Royal Society public exhibit. Come along if you're in the area (last chance tomorrow)

Such a privilege to give a plenary talk at #NAM2024 in a year when dual roles of mother+milk machine and scientist have made even UK based travel challenging. Sorry to not stay the whole week, but thanks to my family for following me here today so I could show up!

Watch as this video takes you to the farthest galaxy ever detected by #NASAWebb (so far), JADES-GS-z14-0. Read about how the scientists were able to find this galaxy, observed only 290 million years after the big bang: webbtelescope.pub/4bWMXYD

Still trying to make progress with science projects while on shared parental leave without also missing out on these last week's before little one starts nursery. The magic combination: naps (baby), coffee, chocolate and wonderful collaborators!

We confirmed the tiny green blob below to be a galaxy so distant it is seen when the Universe was only 2% of its current age, and… its spectrum came out as a huge surprise! πŸ“ˆπŸ”­ Read more in the excellent summary by Kevin Hainline who first discovered this galaxy πŸ‘‡
