The Astronomy feeds now include 11 (!!!) brand new specific subfeeds! 🔭 The subfeeds try to cover every part of astronomy research with at least one feed. All subfeeds automatically crosspost to the main Astronomy feed, too! Here's a thread with links to all of them ⬇️

10/🧵 I also collected data on a new #supernova#astronomy#citizenscience

Astronomers have found a seriously gravitationally messed up planet. It speeds up and slows down so much that its year changes by up to *15%*. Imagine one year being 11 months and the next being 13. The market for belated birthday cards would be HUGE. badastronomy.beehiiv.com/p/astronomer... 🔭🧪

Astronomers find an exoplanet with a year that keeps changing length

Also: a million Moon craters, and Voyager 1 gets an attitude adjustment

9/🧵 I also had the opportunity to do a bit of #citizenscience#astronomy#exoplanets

Thanks Doug!

Clear skies!

In honor of the 25th anniversary of the first ever detection of a transiting exoplanet HD 209458b, here is my direct observation of another exoplanet transit TOI-1259 Ab... ...captured from my backyard with a commercially available telescope (Unistellar eQuinox) 🔭🧪 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HD_2094...
