Twinkle

We were delighted to host the first in-person Twinkle Science Team meeting at our London HQ! It was a fantastic opportunity to collaborate with our members and explore how Twinkle’s data can drive the next wave of extrasolar science. @BSSTwinkle

Benjamin Wilcock, Senior Science Programme Manager at @BlueSkiesSpace, delivered a talk on the design update of Twinkle and the core science cases proposed by the survey members at @EuroplanetMedia's #EPSC2024. Learn more about Twinkle: bssl.space/twinkle

At SPIE Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation in Japan, Instrumentation Adviser Prof. Giorgio Savini presented Twinkle's latest engineering and programmatic updates, the initial science themes under development by the survey science team and synergies with upcoming missions.

We are delighted to announce that we have received funding from Japan's SPARX Group and @SFCCapitalUK to accelerate the delivery of @BSSLMauve and @BSSLTwinkle. Read our announcement in full here: bssl.space/blue-skies-spa…

Nataliea Lowson from @unisqaus has been a Twinkle Extrasolar science team member since 2020. We invited her to share her experience working alongside researchers worldwide on the planning phases of the Extrasolar survey programme: bssl.space/university-of-…

We are all set up and excited to meet the planetary research community at #DPSEPSC2023 in San Antonio! Meet us at booth 13 in the exhibit hall and make sure to collect some @BSSLTwinkle and @BSSLMauve merchandise.

Blue Skies Space will be exhibiting at @AAS_Office's #DPSEPSC2023 in San Antonio, TX, USA next week. Meet us at booth no. 13 to discuss the latest updates on our exoplanet and stellar science missions, @BSSLTwinkle and @BSSLMauve.

Happy News this Morning! I submitted this paper a year ago lol.🥲 "Your manuscript entitled “Exploring the Potential of Twinkle to Unveil the Nature of LTT 1445 Ab” has now been accepted for publication in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society Main Journal."

We are thrilled to announce that @CEA_Officiel has joined the Twinkle Extrasolar Survey programme. Dr Pierre-Olivier Lagage and his team have become part of Twinkle's international science consortium studying exoplanet atmospheres, stars and stellar discs.

It was great to meet again @BSSLTwinkle founding members Prof Ing-Guey Jiang and Prof Li-Chin Yeh from @NTHU_Taiwan during their recent London visit.

Our MMX team met with the team behind the new Twinkle Space Telescope (@BSSLTwinkle) to discuss observations of the Martian moons that could help MMX pick a landing site for sample collection! Hiroyuki Kurokawa (@elsi_origins) explains this importance 🔗: mmx-news.isas.jaxa.jp/?p=1873&lang=en

"We're almost certain to find new physics", says Associate Professor Sarah Dodson-Robinson from @UDelaware. One of the newest Extrasolar survey members, Sarah talks about why she's excited to join Twinkle. Watch here: youtu.be/qWxhF9-P6S0

Welcome to the newest mission in the @blueskiesspace family!

It's paper day and my 3rd first-author paper is out! Overall this work serves as a continuation of the search for potential biosignatures but with a particular target LTT 1445 Ab and with @twinkle_mission Paper Link: arxiv.org/abs/2209.12919 Here's the story (1/n)

We were delighted to exhibit at #EPSC2022 in Granada 🇪🇸 last week. It was fantastic to meet so many researchers and discuss @twinkle_mission's science cases. Thanks to @europlanetmedia for hosting us and we look forward to next year's joint EPSC/DPS in San Antonio, Texas!

A great first day at #EPSC2022 in Granada! Some exceptional discussions with scientists on how they could use the data from the @twinkle_mission for their extrasolar and solar system research. Come and see us at booth no. 4 in the exhibition area! @europlanetmedia

The Blue Skies Space team will be exhibiting at @EuroplanetMedia's #EPSC2022 in Granada 🇪🇸. Come and meet us at booth no.4 in the exhibition area where we will be discussing the latest updates from the @twinkle_mission.

Super super chuffed that Orbyts won the European Research Council 'Inspire' public engagement award this year! So we'll be able to support an extra 10-15 schools next year to get involved with world-leading research projects. 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Congratulations to @NASA, @ESA & @CSA_ASC on achieving a great start with the James Webb Space Telescope! We are delighted to see the first image and can't wait to see what #JWST reveals in the future.
