Disappointed once again, @alamodrafthouse! I couldn’t make any changes to my bill after the film. Good ol’ @AMCTheatres looking better all the time.

A sneak peek at some of the data we’ll showcase in Morrison Planetarium tonight! For anyone attending this evening’s #ASTC2025 gathering at @calacademy, come to our 8:30 program highlighting research from the Academy and @AMNH. With immersive visualizations in @OpenSpaceProj.

The #aas243 conference wrapped up yesterday, but I had one more article left in me! Including stuff about star formation by @PHANGSteam and @CalzadillaAstro (whose “foot on the gas pedal” comment made my day yesterday).

100 years ago, Hubble’s “VAR! plate” established the distance to M31. Check out my @calacademy “thoughts from a planetarian” ruminating on “A Tale of Two Centennials.” (Image courtesy of Carnegie Institution for Science.)
