A brilliant presentation of the new NOT Telescope Rapid Response Mode (RRM), by Samuel. This will significantly improve our ability to stay at the forefront of astrophysical science of transient phenomenas.

🤩 Great news! The NTE Visual Imager, which is being assembled at Aarhus Universitet IFA, is already on the move. Our new instrument is becoming a reality. #nottransientexplorer NOT Transient Explorer Carlsbergfondet

💥A groundbreaking discovery led by Claudia Gutiérrez has unveiled a black hole consuming a star, producing an exceptionally fast and bright cosmic explosion known as CSS 161010. 🤗Observations with ALFOSC provided key photometry and spectroscopy. Congratulations to the authors!

🍿Plan for the weekend! Our observers Cameron Lemon and Nikki Arendse from Oskar Klein Centre in Sweden made a high quality documentary footage during their last visit to NOT. 🔭Thank you for this great outreach action! youtube.com/watch?v=TnPPgb…

💥 The NOT helps unveil a dramatic celestial fate: a pair of white dwarf stars, spiraling together in a death dance that will eventually end in a Type Ia supernova — one of the most powerful explosions in the universe. And they're just 150 light-years away! #ORMLaPalma #supernova

🪨 The NOT tracked asteroid 2024 YR4 to check its risk to Earth! 🔭 Ex-NOT students Zuri Gray & Grigori Fedorets, now at University of Helsinki, helped cut impact odds from 3% to 0.001%—but now there's a 4% chance it hits the Moon! 🌕 More: helsinki.fi/en/news/space/… #ORMLaPalma #asteroid
