I am very excited that my team's Nature Astronomy perspective on radio stars and exoplanets is now out in the wild! arxiv.org/abs/2409.15507

On arXiv today: our accepted Nature Astronomy Perspective piece on the status & future of radio studies of stars & exoplanets, led by @astrojoe.bsky.socialarxiv.org/abs/2409.15507

Putting aside the fact that "cost" should not be a factor in education, I'm going to level with y'all: there is no "cost effective" way to do the project of education. For example: it costs upwards of $50k to train a single US Army soldier, not counting any specialized training.

Are you a male astronomer who started panicking when Australia started advertising for women-only positions? Don't worry. "More men were appointed via non-advertised continuing positions (N=6) than women appointed via female-only advertised positions (N=4) and non- advertised (N=1) combined."

The American Astronomical Society is delighted to announce that the Astropy Project, and all contributors to it, will receive the 2025 Berkeley Prize for Meritorious Work in Astronomy. Astropy will deliver the honorary closing Plenary of #AAS245aas.org/press/astrop...

If they have a strong cosupervisor then no - could be a valuable final contribution

Thank you!
