Excited to share that I have started a new position as an LSC Fellow at the LIGO Livingston Observatory! I will be in Baton Rouge, LA for the next 3 months 😄

Congratulating #CrowdStrike for reaching its carbon neutrality targets six years early through its disruption of global air traffic today!

Last night, the GROWTH-India Telescope caught this 116m, building-sized asteroid on its closest approach to earth! We tracked the rapid motion of the asteroid as it zipped across the sky at just 10x lunar distance. The rapid motion makes background stars look like streaks.

Just two months into his project, Suryansh found the fainest, and one of the fastest Gamma Ray Bursts that ISRO's AstroSat has seen! Suryansh is just starting his 3rd year as a CS undergrad at IIT Bombay. He did this closely with the core team from IITB and Inter-University Centre for Astronomy&Astrophysics

The only way any of us get to survive the coming decades is by accepting NOW that we’ve failed, by rapidly changing how our society works & by adapting globally to face the horrors heading our way. We need leaders brave enough to end corporate-owned-politics & act on this truth.

Our senior-most PhD student Gaurav Waratkar has been pretty busy lately. He's rocking science: ✈️ spending 3 months at LSU as a LSC fellow 🖥️ helping operate LIGO Livingston 🛰️ Finding cosmic explosions 💥 with ISRO's AstroSat 🧑🏻‍🏫 Remotely supervising IIT Bombay students!

Happy birthday to #GW170817 our first binary neutron star detection, and the first gravitational-wave with electromagnetic counterparts! The gamma-ray burst following the merger was spotted by NASAFermi and ESA Integral and later many other telescopes ligo.org/science/Public…

On the occasion of National Space Day, we are honored to be featured by IIT Bombay! 💕 We hope to be India's eyes on transient skies by launching the world's most sensitive telescope! Thank you for the shout-out! 🚀 ISRO PRL Ahmedabad Tata Institute of Fundamental Research Inter-University Centre for Astronomy&Astrophysics Raman Research Institute

🎂 Today is the 9th birthday of gravitational-wave astronomy Happy anniversary to GW150914, our first detection!

Never thought that the drop in birth rates can be explained by travel restrictions too! Congratulations Amit for this fantastic work! ❤️

Excited to participate in Pan IIT Alumni India's PIWOT 2025. Looking forward to exciting discussions with global leaders in tech and innovation! Let's connect!

Had a blast shooting this at LIGO Livingston! Check it out! ❤️
