Aurora spotted at @ApachePointObs last night! The oxygen red aurora is seen across the north and east and the higher altitude nitrogen blue aurora is seen as pillars in the north.

“I used to lie in bed at night and wonder what we might be able to discover with a new @sdssurveys instrument. Now, we finally get to find out.” impact.sloan.org/after-21-ye…

Fun fact!
Did you know there is an astroid named after #NMSU? It is called Asteroid NEMSU!
Check out this GIF of the asteroid zooming across the sky taken with the 1-meter at @ApachePointObs!

Amazing sub-arcsecond seeing with clear skies at @ApachePointObs! Of course we had to look at Uranus during our training session.

This is only the fifth #Jupiter -sized planet transiting a low-mass star that has been observed and the first with such a long orbital period, which makes this discovery really exciting.

Note in last night's observing log at Apache Point. Mostly cloudy night, but something was spotted!

Using @NASA's @chandraxray, @ESA_XMM, the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope #GMRT, and optical observations with the @ApachePointObs, astronomers have found two galaxy groups smashing into each other at a remarkable speed of about 4 million miles per hour. buff.ly/36jK1nD
