I'm an Astrophysicist. I (try to) blow up stars for a living.

@smartereveryday I was pleased to hear @planet4589 affirm my first impression that this was a satellite, but the overlay of the two videos proves it can't be a satellite. A ~0.1° shift from two observers only 135m apart definitely puts this object inside the atmosphere. x.com/MaxFagin/statu…

I've watched hundreds of satellite transits through my telescope, so my first thought when I saw this great eclipse video was "Oh, that's a satellite!" But alas, the angle that @smartereveryday and @redshirtjeff were both able to capture it means it is *not* a satellite...🧵

The @astronomy_su and @TheOKC are incredibly vibrant research environments for astronomy and astrophysics. We also have one of the largest communities of supernovae-based research in Europe covering all aspects from theory to observation.

The project has a broad focus on black hole formation in core-collapse supernovae and next generation computational methods.

How is it that time already? I am going to be applying to postdocs this cycle and would love to share my work with y'all, if you'd have me! I spend my time modeling core-collapse supernovae and predicting light curves, GRRMHD code development, and upcoming collapsar work!

The next Galactic #supernova — which will be a multimessenger treasure trove of neutrinos and gravitational waves (hopefully!) — will likely come from a red supergiant listed somewhere in this new catalog by S. Healy I’m excited to be associated with. arxiv.org/abs/2307.08785
