Our plates have the best retirements! After being on a🔭, they get to go via a ferry to the Orkney Science Fest with Anne-Marie Weijmans, meet some schoolchildren, and spend the rest of their days inspiring people

We have suggestions!

We had an outstanding meeting in NYC and the ECRs were a serious highlight!

The newest mapmaking effort of the long-running Sloan Digital Sky Survey has begun. The Local Volume Mapper (LVM) Instrument has seen first science light. sdss.org/local-volume-m…

Successful first day of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys collaboration meeting. It is good to be me tonight

We’re up for it if you are up for it OpenSpace and MSG Foundation and City of Las Vegas ! Who knows who we would inspire with a planetarium show *on the outside of the dome*!

The “Sphere” is for everyone!

❤️❤️❤️

We are seeking a Program Head for the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys SDSS-V/Milky Way Mapper !

This is a HUGE opportunity to lead one of the SDSS-V Mappers focused on stellar astrophysics and the Milky Way!

'My God, It's Full of Stars!' -- 2001: A Space Odyssey (and also, Sloan Digital Sky Surveys SDSS-V/Milky Way Mapper)

We appreciate it!

First light for SDSS happened 25 years ago tonight. Grateful to the Sloan Foundation for their dedicated support for this project throughout the years. And now back to getting data

Gratifyingly long-form look at LCO and what Chilean sites mean to astronomy more broadly.

(+the striking thing about vizcachas is how much they act like philosopher-rodents at sunset; you just know they are staring into the heart of things)

I am so thrilled to be able to work with Kenneth Carrell students at Angelo State AGAIN thanks to Sloan Digital Sky Surveys FAST program :-). In fact the students were filled with such enthusiasm and it was so contagious that I've got a whole research program building up around them. :-)

Falk Herwig showing the largest hydro simulation their group has done. It’s a massive PopIII star and it is soooo pretty

Very nice talk on white dwarfs from Simon Blouin -- we really need bigger convective cores during helium burning, by hook or by crook....

Breaking news from SDSS/IReNA conference: We are still uncertain about the Carbon-12-alpha-gamma reaction rate....

Join us. You know you want to. Sloan Digital Sky Surveys

Greetings from IReNA/SDSS-V workshop/festival/amazing time from IvS - KU Leuven

SDSS-V is bringing the stars and abundances, IReNA is bringing the models and nuclear physics
