The Whirlpool Galaxy (M51) was first sketched and named by the 3rd Earl of Rosse @BirrCastle in the 1840s. Nowadays, we can see stars and extensive spiral arms with telescope such as @HUBBLE_space @NASAHubble and @LOFAR

Further, open source projects like @astropy and @SunPyProject are gamechangers when it comes to coding experiments and prototypes for space weather forecasting. A massive thank you to those building up and maintaining that code, the research community owes so much to you!

Deadline for @gsoc 2021 was today, good luck to all candidates ! We submitted 4 projects this year as part of the @Open_Astronomy collaboration. More on openastronomy.org/gsoc/gsoc2021/…

We were born 10 years ago! Back then, Keith gave us 🥧 and then @ehsteve an image of the sun (of course, there was only b&w back then). Now we've got colours and - you could say - 3D too! 🎉🎉🎉 🎂 🎉🎉🎉 Happy Birthday to us!! Thanks to everyone who has helped us over the years!

@gsoc @SunPyProject @JuliaLanguage @poliastro_py @LibreSpace_Fnd @ThePSF @NumFOCUS Our ideas page is at: openastronomy.org/gsoc/gsoc2021/…

Yay! We've been accepted this year as a @gsoc organisation! Under our ☂ we've got @SunPyProject Stingray and JuliaAstro (@JuliaLanguage) - @poliastro_py is also taken part, but this year under @LibreSpace_Fnd Certainly @ThePSF and @NumFOCUS are taking part again this year 🎉🎉

SunPy is a software package for #solar physics: a #Python-based software library that provides tools for performing research using direct observations of the Sun & Heliosphere. numfocus.org/project/sunpy #NumFOCUS Sponsored Project since 2017 #sunpy #solarphysics @SunPyProject

Project is going well, well done @pmxkcd ! @gsoc @Open_Astronomy

We have reached halfway through the coding period! Here's my blog post for the last two weeks updates on my GSoC project with @SunPyProject . link.medium.com/1VK7qBCN77

It's time for the weekly #SoftwareSurvey, and this week it's a #SundaySoftwareSurvey! We are featuring the @SunPyProject that empowers you to analyze/visualize data for solar physics. Notice anything hiding in this logo? Learn more & annotate 👉 rseng.github.io/rseng/software… #RSEPedia

Congratulations to our 10(!) GSOC students this year. We hope you have a fun and productive summer. The full list of projects is here: summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/…

This week is the @SunPyProject Coordination Meeting! Lots of SunPy developers and enthusiasts from around the world will be discussing the current state of #SunPy and next steps for the project via online videoconference.

@mileslucas_ And for anyone interested, there is a #GSoC project with @Open_Astronomy related to #JuliaAstro Photometry.jl, check out openastronomy.org/gsoc/gsoc2020/… #JuliaLang

Are you a college student or know someone who is would be interested in working with EinsteinPy this summer. Apply for Google Summer of Code @gsoc with OpenAstronomy Umbrella @Open_Astronomy summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/…

Super happy that @Open_Astronomy got accepted to @gsoc for the 6th year in a row!! Congratulations to incredibles @AstroBrigi and @DVDGC13 for leading the initiative!! openastronomy.org/gsoc/

RADIS is now part of the @Open_Astronomy project! Check them out: openastronomy.org

New #SunPy paper now available #openaccess! ‘The SunPy Project: Open Source Development and Status of the Version 1.0 Core Package’ doi.org/10.3847/1538-4… via @IOPscience and software reviewed by @JOSS_TheOJ

SunPy 1.1 has been released. Faster imports, new coordinate frames, SUVI and WISPR support, and a data manager for instrument correction type data. Read all about it here: docs.sunpy.org/en/latest/what…

Congratulations to the Astropy Project Team @astropy who have been awarded the @RoyalAstroSoc Group Achievement Award for Astronomy for producing the exceedingly valuable research toolkit Astropy and fostering professional software development skills in the community. #rasawards
