Continuing our great work at @michiganstateu from the campus observatory! Public nights will begin again in April! Until then we are using the few clear nights we get for research!

A rare clear December night, but one of the brightest under tonight's super moon! Swipe to see the Ring Nebula and Moon captured by student observer Fatih.

With prospective graduate emails beginning, I want to point people to a thread about these emails. Unfortunately, @michiganstateu's astronomy PhD program will not be accepting applications for the upcoming admissions cycle. astro.natsci.msu.edu/graduate/how-t…

The peer review system doesn’t work when your are asking the same people for $1000s to publish their own paper. Your customers can’t also be your workforce. Reduce paper charges or compensate your reviewers.

⚠️New paper!⚠️ We have discovered a planet, Gaia-4b, and a brown dwarf, Gaia-5b, using the @ESAGaia spacecraft. Gaia-4b is Gaia's first planet detected with astrometry alone and represents the tip-of-the-iceberg of the 100s-1000s of planets that Gaia is expected to detect.
