A nice story about a discovery made by a former member of my group here at FIT (Brett Addison, class of 2008). Panther Pride, and proud professor moment! This story has been picked up also in CNET, Esquire and other online news sources.
Astro friends: I'm looking for programming projects suitable for UG and Grad extragalactic astronomy projects. Ideas? Resources?

How many more people have to die before we reinstate the assault weapons ban & the limit on high-capacity magazines & pass universal background checks? After they passed in 1994, there was a big drop in mass shooting deaths. When the ban expired, they rose again. We must act now.

.@JeffFlake-You just said if Kavanaugh lied, his nomination is over. Well guess what. He lied about not having ties to Yale, his grandfather went there. He lied about terms in yearbook, his calendar, knowledge of stolen emails and being of legal drinking age. #WithdrawKavanaugh
Astro-friends: Got a pleasant chuckle when I added @jimmyfallon today. Give his profile a visit, look at the bottom of the header and you'll see why.

for the morally dense: This is why you don't elect a president who abuses women -- he will tolerate it in others, give cover to the abusers and demean women brave enough to come forward. Oh, and since abusers lie you'll have someone dishonest to the core

Everything about this "Putin thanks Trump for CIA warning" story stinks. Nearly every terror event in Russia for 20 years was created or abetted by the KGB. Feels like an excuse to feign cooperation, flatter Trump, weaken rationale for investigation.

.@realDonaldTrump now knows that his verbal abuse will no longer be tolerated. His empty chair photo opp showed he’s more interested in stunts than in addressing the needs of the American people. Poor Ryan and McConnell relegated to props. Sad!

Right #now Chandra is studying a quasar ~6 billion light years away! When viewed in 2009, a galaxy between Chandra and the quasar acted as a lens, producing 4 images! s.si.edu/29MoxEE #Today's Obs: 6h 56m

It's not imploding. You're actively sabotaging it and ruining the lives of millions of Americans. xitter.cf/realDonaldTrump/status…

Removing public data and data access are crimes. Citizens and taxpayers should protest. Those data are OURS. xitter.cf/petergleick/status/909…
