Very excited to announce that the Allen Telescope Array (ATA), the radio interferometer that I currently work on, has detected the signal of the most distant human-made object ever sent into space; Voyager 1! Read more about it in this blog: wfarah.github.io/blog/voyager1/

If you’ve been wondering what I’ve been up to lately... This is it! Deep space communications don’t scale. Existing infrastructure is holding missions back. We are building a modern alternative. More to come!
Cascade Space@cascade_space

The Deep Space Network is oversubscribed and unavailable for commercial space missions. Commercial alternatives are limited, fragmented, and unreliable. Even if they worked well, there are not enough. We are building new, modern infrastructure. Designed to scale. cascade.space

If you are here at @Supercomputing, come check out our cool demo at the @NVIDIA booth! We brought one of the Allen Telescope Array’s RFSoC Digitizer to the exhibition floor 👀

My accomplishments on long flights are reading/writing/reviewing papers, making plots, telescope observing, and coding. But the most significant achievement by far? Reaching the 8196 block in “2048”

In an effort to do something with the photos I took with my new camera: I created an gallery website to post my random photos! My visit to the Jodrell Bank Observatory is the first batch! Planning to add more as my free time allows. Check it out 👇 gallery.luigi.ltd/radio-observat…

Pilot: “we’re about to land, please stow your tray table…” Me: “no worries, I have a VPN client and a VNC viewer on my phone. Don’t need a laptop to science!” Also observing the newly discovered FRB20240114A, thanks CHIME for the ATEL!

Thrilled to present the first #FRB result with the upgraded Allen Telescope Array. A few hundred hours of follow up on a repeating FRB revealed multiple bursts that appeared to have a noticeable drop in their center frequency over time! Read more here: seti.org/press-release/…
