Fantastic talk by Ann Njeri from UoM Physics & Astronomy using the EVN and e-MERLIN to identify AGN and investigate what's going on in them! #EVNsymposium2022

We are very happy 😇 to receive this powerful server, thanks to DARA Big Data IAU-OAD. This is a giant leap forward that will exponentially advance research in Astronomy, Machine Learning and Big data in Kenya! Newton Fund DARA Project Willice Obonyo

The Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (India) achieved a new milestone for enabling its #VLBI capabilities by completing 2 experiments with #EuropeanVLBINetwork telescopes, where #VLBI fringes with the GMRT were detected successfully National Centre for Radio Astrophysics jive.eu/gmrt-evn-vlbi-… 🧵⬇️

Congratulations Isaac Mutie et al ... DARA Project Technical University of Kenya

We are pleased to host the DART - OPTiK group from @UniversityofEdinburgh's Astronomy group, here in Kenya, for optical astronomy project on asteroids. DARA Project DARA Big Data Technical University of Kenya

Yesterday our second team arrived at Ileret! Team 2 consists of two postgrad students from Physics Astro @ Edin, and two from AstroTU-Kenya who will be part of the team who are here for the #DARTMission impact at the end of this month ☄️

I am happy to have made my first presentation at TPRC conference. This was a unique opportunity to present our work with my PhD advisor Edward Oughton on Universal Assessment of Low Earth Orbit Satellites 🛰 in narrowing the broadband gap in such a prestigious conference.

Today 70+ students will arrive in Dwingeloo to spend the week at the 9th European Radio Interferometry School! School organised by JIVE & ASTRON with sponsorship from Opticon RadioNet Pilot (ORP) If you are a participant use #ERIS2022 to share your experience jive.eu/eris2022/

The #ERIS2022 School is starting today in Dwingeloo, the Netherlands. Organised by JIVE / ASTRON & sponsored by #ORP, it comprises a full week of lectures and hands-on tutorials on how to achieve scientific results from radio interferometry. jive.eu/eris2022

Many thanks to DART - OPTiK for giving the astrophysics postgrads, Calvince Juma and Vincent of Technical University of Kenya, the opportunity to be part of the mission aimed at testing a method of planetary defense against near-Earth objects.

It is exciting to see how Dorcas Nthoki, a PhD (astrophysics) student at Technical University of Kenya , displays her DARA certificate with enthusiasm. Their two-weeks training, at @GSTTI in Ghana, focused on the technical aspects of radio astronomy.Thanks DARA Project for the amazing opportunity

Great observation this morning of the #DARTMission target Didymos and Dimorphos by Montgomery School #WorkingWithNASA #PlanetaryDefence Comet Chasers 🔭☄️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Faulkes Telescope Las Cumbres Observatory It is moving quickly now against background stars - so we've learnt we need shorter exposures next time

Our own Isaac Mutie, a PhD student Technical University of Kenya attended #ERIS2022 in JIVE /ASTRON. Our group is fast growing and we are happy to network globally DARA Project.

Congratulations to our own Willice Willice Obonyo, for winning observing time with the ATCA, we hope you enjoy Australia! Technical University of Kenya DARA Project DARA Big Data University of Leeds CSIRO

Funded by IAU-OAD , we held a two day teachers training workshop in astronomy. Students will get more information about astronomy through their teachers and that helps develop astronomy in our Africa. DARA Project DARA Big Data Technical University of Kenya ...

Congratulations to Vincet Vincent Okoth and Rashid!

Many thanks to DARA Project for the awesome two days of insightful talks and workshops! We learnt a lot!
