The most energetic neutrino ever observed just smashed into the Mediterranean and left a signal that was picked up by the K3Mnet neutrino telescope 2400m under the sea At the moment we don't really know where this neutrino came from, nor should it really be there. 🧵1/10

Sh2-240, the  Spaghetti nebula, is a quite faint supernova remnant - and a quite extended one almost filling a full frame sensor at 280mm focal length (or some 3 degree on the night sky) making it even larger in angle than M31. astrobin.com/ibmtnx 🔭#astrophotography 🔭📷

Just wanted to quickly advertise a really exciting new result just obtained by ALMA involving the detection (6.6 sigma) of the [OIII]88 line at z=14.1793 put together by an awesome PhD student in Leiden with the name of Sander Schouws. The [OIII]88 line detection was found by

For the upcoming 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, we hope to reach 2 million followers. Achieving this goal would not only be a tribute to the memory of Victims but also crucial support for our educational mission. Your engagement is vital. Everyone can help.

First-ever: We've identified a new astronomical object, 'Buried Planet', using SEISMOLOGY, rather than telescopes. It's a survivor of Theia, the planet that collided with Earth 4.5 billion years ago to form our Moon. See our @Nature cover paper: rdcu.be/dp16K

Hvordan kan data fra @ESAGaia bruges til at finde kvasarer, og hvordan kan lyset fra kvasarerne give ny viden om tidlige galakser? Det har jeg snakket med @FynboJohan om: aktuelnaturvidenskab.dk/find… #dkvid #dkastro

A fortnight ago we hosted the IDA 2023 Summer School. @FynboJohan says: "Experience of the dark night sky at a real observatory is a huge experience for the students, and it is not uncommon for them to describe the summer school as one of the greatest experiences of their lives"

Rygter talte sandt: Stor astronyhed om gravitationsbølger offentliggjort

For første gang har fysikere sandsynligvis målt et særligt signal – lavfrekvente tyngdebølger – som kan gøre os klogere på universets dybeste hemmeligheder.
