@SCTrager Congratulations!! 🍾

Big news… Many thanks to Amina Helmi for her excellent leadership of NOVA over the past years!

I can honestly say that I was much more stressed about taking my driving test this morning than I was about submitting my thesis! 😅 So relieved that both are done now, tea is definitely needed ☕💆‍♀️

@imogenwhittam Thank you! Fairly mild symptoms so hopefully it passes quickly

@Astrograd Oh no! Get well soon.

Of course I would get COVID for the second time ever when writing my thesis. The first time was with a strict paper deadline. I think it just knows when I have to write important things 👀

WEAVE First Light. The ING and the WEAVE team present first-light observations with the WEAVE spectrograph. WEAVE is a powerful, next-generation multi-fibre spectrograph on the WHT, now being commissioned on-sky and already generating high-quality data. ing.iac.es/PR/press/weave…

So happy to see WEAVE is finally hitting the news! bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

So excited to announce that @WEAVEMOS’s top end is now mounted on the WHT @INGLaPalma! Congratulations to all, especially @doncarlosabrams, Kevin Dee, and the fantastic team. First light in less than a month!

@drbecky_ I had this too, just managed to salvage it! I'd really recommend this video 3blue1brown did on wordle and information theory that just came out youtu.be/v68zYyaEmEA

I got way into the danger zone playing today’s wordle 😅 Wordle 234 6/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨🟩 ⬛🟩🟩⬛🟩 ⬛🟩🟩⬛🟩 ⬛🟩🟩⬛🟩 ⬛🟩🟩⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I will never be able to pull this off again Wordle 214 2/6 ⬜🟩⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Decided to try the AI art I kept seeing and I'm pretty impressed. I put in "Astronomical Instrumentation" app.wombo.art/?s=09

@ansatz183 Breath of the wild, also I would recommend animal crossing for an amazing chill game

@drbecky_ @INGLaPalma I feel your pain Becky, I was meant to be going out near the end of this month for WEAVE 😬

This week I was supposed to be in La Palma observing with the Isaac Newton Telescope on top of the mountain @INGLaPalma Unfortunately the volcano there had other ideas and my trip was cancelled. Here’s why volcanic ash 🌋 is NOT GOOD for astronomy: youtu.be/UzzbVA5n8IU

Is an activate volcano near the observatory a good reason for a PhD funding extension? 🤔

@NatAdAstra @conselice @NASAWebb I would absolutely love to have that as a Christmas decoration 😂

@conselice @NASAWebb 🎵All I want for Christmas is...🎵

Looks like @NASAWebb wants to be an Xmas gift... Another delay? @NatAdAstra esa.int/Science_Explor…

Whilst I'm very glad to be doing my project, I absolutely hate moving out of student houses. I'm looking forward to the point in my life when I don't have to move every other year anymore

@hownowholly This is the exact reason before I started dating Tom that I would lie and say I had one anyways, because I knew they wouldn't leave me alone otherwise 😔

@hownowholly Congratulations!! I’m so glad to hear that everything went okay ☺️

Realising today how lucky I am do be doing my PhD project, as I’m remotely running/testing robots located over 5,000 miles away from where I am right now 🦾 Technology is an incredible thing #PhDlife

@drbecky_ @HerschelMuseum I went there a “few” years ago! I’d definitely recommend it as a place to visit in Bath ☺️ Also the Pump rooms do amazing breakfasts too 😝

This weekend I had a lovely trip to Bath and had to stop by the @HerschelMuseum! This is the house where William and Caroline Herschel lived when they discovered the planet Uranus in 1781. So much wonderful history, a must visit!
