Guess I can post these now.
Check out those views! 😎
It's always a treat to open the observatory dome—and not just for our staff who get these views firsthand!
...even our commissioning camera friend gets a peek 👹

55 years ago #today Jocelyn Bell discovered the first known pulsar -- a star the size of a city, spinning once a second, whipping up intense radio signals that sounded like the beep-beep-beep of an alien signal.
In her own words: https://www.cam.ac.uk/stories/journeysofdiscovery-pulsars #astronomy #discovery
British designer Peter Saville created the cover for Joy Division's "Unknown Pleasures" inspired by a pulsar radio-wave pattern that astronomer Harold Craft published in his PhD thesis.
Could that be the most widely seen PhD thesis in history?

@mcnees @antonioserrata Miss Jocelyn Bell Burnell The Cat approves of this toot. (My kitty was the last of a litter of kittens from a feral mom, fostered by a grad student who named all the kittens after female scientists the grad student thought needed to be better known.) #catsofmastodon #cats #astronomy
A group at Johns Hopkins has created a scrollable, interactive map of the entire universe, from here to the cosmic microwave background.
Extraordinary discoveries at your fingertips for free, unimaginable when I was a kid. https://mapoftheuniverse.net/ #astronomy #space #exploration
"Scientists can’t quite agree on how to define “life,” but that hasn’t stopped them from studying it, looking for it elsewhere, or even trying to create it..."

New pictures from winter-over David Wolf at the South Pole. Its always fun to go on trips away from the station, especially when there auroras and clear skies like this! #Aurora #astronomy #Nightsky pic.twitter.com/37u38L1q2K
