Incredible showing from Australians past, present and future, at #SKAO2025 in Görlitz. All very excited about getting the first data from the SKAO telescopes! Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! #RadioAstronomy

@astroarxiv.bsky.social is it possible to make the arxiv links to each paper clickable, so that we could be redirected to the abstract?

Did someone just see there were two and figure we only need one? Like you only need one leg - the other is clearly spare?

Y'ALL. Check out this *stunning* new 3D visualization of the breathtaking Carina Nebula 🤩 I will be forever grateful that I'm the lucky human who got to reveal this image to the world in 2022. It made me cry when I first saw it. The universe is beautiful; take it in❤️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFaZ...

Listening to some awesome case studies today at the ATCA conference and remembering when I visited this important infrastructure that we have here in Australia - the role it plays in discovery and complimentary science, as well as Aussie radio heritage history. A southern hemisphere gem! 📡📡📡📡📡 ...📡

A shout out to the incredible women scientists in our radio transients group. I love this photo, with multiple generations of Sydney #RadioAstronomy women. * Elaine Sadler, AGN expert, and my career-long mentor and collaborator, I co-authored one of my first papers with her, 23 years ago! 1/5

Very cool this morning to see @thenrao.bsky.social's recorded live stream of the ngVLA prototype dish being lifted onto its pedestal! www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5cK... Bonus content: at ~1h31m-1h37m, you can see a transporter slowly go by carrying a VLA dish to its D-configuration position. 😃 🧪📡🔭

We need to stop calling ALL statistical models "AI". The comments under this article alone show how debased the term has become for general public. It's worse than useless. #mlsky
