Ticket giveaway! Join me, @AtlasObscura and @ValleyoftheVapors at their awesome eclipse festival Apr 5-8 in the path of totality at Hot Springs National Park, Ark. Visit atlasobscura.com/eclipse, share this post, and follow @AtlasObscura for a chance to win 2 passes. #AOEcliptic
Atlas Obscura will contact festival pass winners after the 48-hr period - starting now - has ended. #AOEcliptic #atlasobscura
Head’s up - if someone from Advancements with @TedDanson reaches out with interest in your org’s work on innovations in technology: it’s pay-to-play. After 20 min of talking about LSST I was told it would only be $83,000 to have the work featured in an episode.

Please help us spread the word. With preparations well underway, the reality is that the only thing that will make this (or any) conference fail is not getting enough people to participate. So come on, register and submit your abstracts by 1st March! astronomy2024.org

An epic thread by @megschwamb about how a LINCC -FW Incubator made a critical piece of @VRubinObs ☄️science code ~200x faster.
LINCC-FW is @SchmidtFutures supported project at @uwdirac, @Physics_CMU, and the LSST Discovery Alliance (CC: @BethWillman)
