One day, our Sun will become a dense, planet-sized object called a white dwarf. 🤏☀️ To better understand what the future holds for our solar system, scientists are studying other white dwarf systems in the universe. And you can help! Get started: zooniverse.org/projects/exoas…

Some stars are surrounded by disks - vast spinning clouds of gas, dust, and rock where new planets form and evolve – and volunteers are teaming up to help scientists find them in NASA data! Join the search and become a Disk Detective: go.nasa.gov/3XYBpy1

@Zvezdichko Great, thanks a lot for your contributions to Exoasteroids! We have a new set of 10,000 more candidates already uploaded and ready to be activated once the launch subject set is fully completed 🙂

@CoolNeighbors Thank you so much! <3 And after this achievement, I think I know what the next step should be - I need to find some extrasolar asteroids :) With the current set of 10 000 images completed, I was able to classify 6 369 images. I hope there's something in there :)

#AAS245 Aaron Meisner will join us as a plenary speaker at the 245th AAS meeting. His research focuses on revealing the coldest, most ancient brown dwarfs in the solar neighborhood by combining large-scale image processing, participatory science, and machine learning techniques.

Too big to be planets, too small to be stars... Brown dwarfs aren't hot enough to fuse hydrogen in their cores, and they're faint and hard to find. That also means they stick around for a LONG time—and are great tracers of the Milky Way's history🧵 🔗: rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-det…
