Enceladus in 2013 as its cryovolcanic plumes feed into Saturn’s E ring. Stars streaks due to the long exposure by Cassini. Extending to the left is the moon’s shadow.

Oh bravo NASA! The #Parker Solar Probe lives!! It's back in communication range and has sent "a beacon tone... indicating it’s in good health and operating normally". Huge congrats to the engineering team who built it to sustain the brutal >1000°C temp 🥳🧪🔭

Happy moment- today my dad and I skied our ~30th season together (and my dad’s 64th!). My dad still has better form at 78 than pretty much everyone out there ⛷️

Books are a total scam.
Every single word is already in the dictionary—they’re just selling them back to you in a different order.

Atoms are binary. They are either intended to be hydrogen or helium. We can't just scrap this worldview just because of a handful of exceptions

Apparently, Saville first spotted Craft’s plot in “The Cambridge Encyclopaedia of Astronomy.”
It shows up again — printed on a much cheerier blue background — in a 1971 Scientific American article on pulsars by radio astronomer Jeremiah Ostriker. (15/12)

Book proofs have arrived 🎉.
Exciting! (but daunting). Thrilling! (but intimidating).
Any tips on book proof review from experienced authors? (While I've reviewed proofs for many articles, this is my first book; this is a whole other, massive thing).

Last week, I taught at a workshop that taught PhD students astrostatistics, machine learning, and large dataset skills. All of the code from all of the sessions is on GitHub if you're curious! #astrocode
Here's the ML part - links to other parts are in the readme:
